TRANSFORMED, new from Word Music & Church Resources, features Modern WorshipSongs informed and inspired by great hymns of the church. These aren’t hymns that have simply been revamped or reimagined within unique arrangements. Rather, they are new songs incorporating portions of a well known hymn or that have their roots and foundation in a hymn. “Blended Worship” (the term we use to describe a church that combinesthe use of both worship songs and hymns as a worship style, a strategic formatting decision intended to bring together the old and the new) has now been adopted by the songwriting community as more and more songwriters are creating inspired and anointed new songs of worship which, at their core, were birthed by a hymn.Hymns such as It Is Well with My Soul, I Need Thee Every Hour, Amazing Grace, Nothing but the Blood…all of these and more lend themselves to the creation of deeply moving, powerfully-impacting modern worship hymns for today’s contemporary evangelical church; new modern worship hymns bringing together the best of the past with the brightest of the future. Transformed, they become songs like It Is Well (Bethel), Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace) (Hillsong), Come Thou Fount, Come Thou King (Gateway)...10 new songs with a rich heritage, deep roots, and a fresh anointing…all brilliantly adapted for choir, orchestra and congregation by arrangers David Wise and Tim Paul. Immerse your congregation in moments of profound, heartfelt worship as they join with your choir in singing these new, next generation hymns.
