"For we are his handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for the good works that God has prepared in advance, that we should live in them." (Ephesians 2:10)

Become expressions of the Gospel
Reflecting on the past ten years, Matt Maher sees his music—and the Church—as a collage: different expressions from different areas of life, held together by the Gospel. Featuring four newly released songs and live versions of nine favorites, All the People Said Amen strives to remind us that, as God's handiwork, we're all part of a larger work of art.

Hear a surprise ending to "Your Grace Is Enough"
Climbing Christian radio charts, "Lord, I Need You" speaks of our reliance upon God's providence. This CD also features three songs in the new Spirit & Song hymnal (fall 2013): the smash hit "Your Grace Is Enough," which closes with the refrain from "Here I Am, Lord," by Dan Schutte; "Adoration," a modern interpretation of the Eucharistic hymn by St. Thomas Aquinas; and "Christ Is Risen," a popular Easter anthem written with Matt Redman.

Inspire communal worship and personal devotion
From The End and the Beginning to Overflow and Alive Again, Matt Maher has created an incredible library of music for communal worship and personal devotion. Whether you're looking to share in the unifying experience of one of his events or for songs to inspire your parish, All the People Said Amen demonstrates Matt's gift for leading people in praise of God.

Engage your assembly with well-known songs
This prolific composer’s music has helped engage Latino-Americans in the liturgy for years. Continuing in the same vein as the previous two, this third volume in the anthology combines Espinosa’s most well-known songs in one uplifting collection. “These are the songs of God’s pilgrim Church,” explains the composer, “songs that speak of a God, Creator and Father who loves us and made us truly his children.”

Introduce classics to a new generation
From rock and blues to gospel and jazz, updated contemporary arrangements breathe new life into the music you know and love. Rediscover familiar songs or introduce classics to a new generation. The rich and beautiful instrumentation features electric guitars, keyboards and authentic Latin American instruments like zampoña (traditional Andean panpipe) and bombo legüero (a type of drum).

Celebrate the mystery of faith
With well-known titles like “El Señor Es Mi Fuerza” and “Santa María del Camino,” and songs that have been published in the US for the first time like “Anunciamos el Reino de Dios” and “Todos Unidos,” this collection features 12 songs that will be an inspiration to all who gather to celebrate the resurrection and life of our Lord and Savior.

Give new expression to generational anthems
Contemporary arrangements with rock guitars and elements of jazz and Gospel give new expression to poetic anthems cherished by generations of Latino-American Catholics. As Espinosa describes, these songs "invite us to taste the warmth of the Spirit who is near; the Spirit that surrounds our existence, our life and our story."

Surrender and trust in God
The folk-style "Todo lo Podemos" reflects our surrender and trust in God. Like a heartbeat, the drum and bass in "Resucitó el Señor" create intense anticipation that explodes in a cry of joy: He's Risen, He's Risen! Overflowing with Latin flavor, "Santa María de la Esperanza" provides an energetic close to the album.

Don't just stand there. Hear it! Sing it! Live It!

This 27-track CD by Gregory Norbet features traditional and contemporary music and text based on the Liturgy of the Hours. The accompanying Meditation Book contains verses, reflections and space for you to write your own prayers and contemplations.

Drawing on 14 biblical texts and Marian traditions that have touched her heart, Hermana Glenda creates a musical homage to our Holy Mother. This wonderful collection of songs provides a contemplative accompaniment for praying with Mary and encourages us to follow her simple, yet profound example: "Let it be done unto me."

Tracks: Ahí Tienes a Tu Madre (John 19:26–27) | Hágase en Mí (Luke 1:38) | Magnificat Lucas (Luke 1:46–55) | Guardabas en Tu Corazón (Luke 2:50–52) | La Mujer y el Dragón (Revelation 12:1–13) | Bendita Sea Tu Pureza (Marian Tradition) | Letanías (Litanies) | María (Discernment) | Discípulo Amado (John 19:27) | No Me Des Riquezas, ni Pobreza (Proverbs 30:8–9) | Madre de Consolación (Discernment) | Ángelus | Alégrate, María (Luke 1:28–35) | Hagan Todo Lo Que Él Les Diga (John 2:5)

Orar con el Corazón (translated: praying with your heart) is the perfect title for this album. Each of these 14 Scripture-based songs quiets the mind and penetrates the listener to the core, allowing for the discovery of God's most important message: we are loved.

It exceeds every expectation
Matt Maher's album exceeds every expectation. As one industry insider put it, it "crackles with energy." A musical testament to God's overflowing blessings, these 14 songs speak powerfully of what it means to be Christian in the third millennium.

Cool, playful, driving sound
The title track is a cool, easy-paced piece inviting God -- in his word and sacramental presence -- to overflow in us. Bursting with joy, "Resurrection Day" jumps and hops. Its playful, driving sound and unforgettable refrain draw you in to savor the freedom Christ won for us.

A breathless, thrilling ride
Matt really cuts loose on "Everything You've Done." A celebration of God's gifts, it starts out innocently enough. But suddenly he doubles its two-beat rock tempo and you're whisked away on a breathless, thrilling ride that ends with a flurry of guitars and musical fireworks. You can't help but "dance for the Lord."

Lush, alternative-rock arrangements
"Timeless" is a brilliant adaptation of Suzanne Toolan's "Jesus Christ, Yesterday, Today and Forever." Matt weaves the refrain from that haunting, Taizé-style song into his own lush, alternative-rock arrangement.

Intense, full-blooded covers
Two of the biggest surprises are "Come to the Water" and "Adoration." You just wouldn't expect to find "Tantum Ergo," a traditional eucharistic hymn, and a 1978 John Foley song here. But Matt pulls it off -- and then some. His intense, electric, full-blooded versions take these classics to a new level -- without squandering any of the original reverence.

Pop masterpieces
"Hear and Now" is a pop masterpiece assuring us that God's kingdom is here "in our midst," not some pie in the sky. Opening with a wispy, acoustic guitar, "Unwavering" eases you in to rest in God's "unwavering hand."

With Overflow, Matt's visionary songwriting once again leads listeners closer to the heart of God.

Encourage full assembly participation
Based on beloved prayers and sacred scripture, this 12-song collection features singable melodies and familiar styles to encourage full participation in the liturgy. Offering songs that emphasize the Word of God, Pueblo de Dios continues the journey begun with Somos la Iglesia. Inspired by the people of the church, the songs on this CD are ideal for celebrating God's love.

Energize worship with a diverse range of music
Representing the diversity of the Hispanic church, Pueblo de Dios features Mariachi styles—from Bolero Ranchero and Son Jaliscience to Huapango and Danzón—as well as contemporary styles, including pop, rock and ballads. The collection spotlights an impressive lineup of soloists and musicians and the choir from the Catedral de Los Ángeles, under the direction of Anna Betancourt.

Enjoy scripture set to vibrant melody
Recorded in a contemporary style, "Con Solo una Palabra" is based on Matthew 8:5-13 and highlights the Centurion who received the gift of faith and asked Jesus to heal his servant. Speaking of the peace and tenderness we encounter in God's kingdom, the verses encourage the faithful to approach the table of the Lord to receive healing and peace. "Sálvame, Señor" is based on the dramatic and powerful text from Matthew 14:23-33, which tells of Jesus walking on water. Adding vibrancy to the Scripture and melody, the text uses Son Jalisciense style. Together, this diverse collection is truly for all People of God!

Tracks: Aquí Estoy, Señor (Salmo 39) | Ave María | Con Solo una Palabra | Gloria al Padre | La Elegida | La Palabra Se Hizo Carne | Madre Sencilla y Humilde | Mi Alma Está Sedienta (Salmo 62) | Nada Me Falta (Salmo 22) | Pueblo de Dios | Sálvame, Señor | Señor, Tú Tienes Palabras (Salmo 18)

Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. —Oscar Wilde

Sometimes in order to move forward, you have to look back and remember where you've been. It was in that spirit that Matt Maher's latest Grammy-nominated album, Saints and Sinners, came to being.

Music inspired by the lives of leaders
Drawing from writings and quotes from people who have experienced the tension between certainty and mystery and believers who wrestled with matters of faith, the five-time Grammy nominee has brought us another remarkable collection. Featuring Matt's exquisite songwriting and musical talents, this album is a beautiful testimony of those who have challenged the status quo and left marked legacies:

• The driving first track, "A Future Not My Own," is based on a prayer inspired by Blessed Oscar Romero. Its compelling lyrics will penetrate your soul.
• An ode to Martin Luther King, Jr., "Sons and Daughters," is a timely piece that speaks of racial reconciliation, of coming together to help one another.
• "Everything Is Grace," a powerful song based on a quote by Saint Therese of Lisieux, reminds us that everything—the good, the bad, the beautiful, the difficult—is a gift from God.
• The popular "Because He Lives (Amen)," based on the timeless Bill Gaither hymn, is a song of thanks and acknowledgement that we live because of Christ's death and resurrection. It is, in a word, moving.

United in our humanity
Throughout the experience of writing these songs, Matt has found that while we all come from different backgrounds, amass a range of experiences and even harbor conflicting opinions, the one thing that binds us together is our humanity. We are all in the process of being transformed, saints and sinners.

Track listing
A Future Not My Own | Deliverer | Glory Bound | Land of My Father | Everything Is Grace | Sons and Daughters | Firelight | Instrument | Abide with Me | Because He Lives (Amen) | Rest

Known as "the father of contemporary liturgical music," Ray Repp has composed and recorded 11 collections of songs, some of which have been translated into as many as 28 languages. His popular Mass for Young Americans, released in 1965, was one of the first settings arranged for guitar accompaniment, and one of the first to apply folk-music styles. Described as "catchy not churchy," his music -- both early and more recent -- has always reflected his concern for peace and social justice issues.

This two-volume compilation includes the best and most popular music by this legendary composer, offering listeners the opportunity to experience the roots of contemporary liturgical music in the U.S. Ecumenical and universal in tone, these are songs that have been embraced and sung in both Protestant and Catholic communities for more than 30 years. Drawn from the original historic recordings, they are available on CD for the first time.

Reflecting the folk styles and consciousness of the era in which they were composed, Ray's songs make an infectious appeal for brotherly love and charity. Many songs, like the tender and meditative "Look Out Your Window" and "How Long, O Lord," feature Ray's fine tenor voice, with its warm vibrato, accompanied simply by acoustic guitar. Others, like the classic "Allelu!," feature larger ensembles and beautifully arranged solo and accompaniment parts for strings, flute, oboe, banjo, harmonica, percussion and vocals. These are the songs that, when first introduced, had assemblies and youth gatherings on their feet, standing, clapping and singing along.

In a world still broken and divided by injustice and war, the music of Ray Repp is timely and comforting, expressing the longing and hope Christians everywhere have for unity, peace and the establishment of God's kingdom on earth

Volume 1 includes songs from four previously released collections: Mass for Young Americans, Allelu!, Come Alive, and Sing Praise!

Volume 2 includes songs from five previous collections: Sunrise, in the Dead of Winter; Benedicamus: The Song of the Earth; Hear the Cryin'; Give Us Peace; and By Love Are We All Bound.

Piercingly honest and uniquely accessible
We Are the Beggars boasts a collection of songs that lend themselves to full-band arrangements as well as the simplicity of a single singer and acoustic guitar. With the piercing honesty of his voice and unique accessibility of his music, Ike addresses our human frailty by drawing attention to the joy of how deeply we are loved and accepted by God.

Grabs ahold of you and refuses to let go
The album's opening title track grabs ahold of you with its driving guitars and refuses to let go. Possessing an irresistible hook, "At the Sound" is destined to become a praise and worship mainstay. The emotional "I Am Saved" speaks to the human experience of suffering and coming face-to-face with one's own shortcomings and failures. Listening to "Heaven," one can't help but picture a crowd jumping in unison. And "We Are the Beggars II," a stripped-down, alternate version of the title track, provides an unconventional, inventive close to the album.

11 powerful originals accompanied by three refreshing covers
Alongside 11 powerful originals, Ike also offers up three refreshing covers: a roots-laden take on "How Can I Keep From Singing;" a booming drum interpretation of "Wade In the Water;" and a recording of "In Christ Alone" that seamlessly transitions into an unforgettable original praise song.

Comfortably commands your undivided attention
Produced by top 10 contemporary hitmaker Robbie Seay and featuring the ambient electric guitar work of pro Taylor Johnson throughout the record, it would be easy for a young artist to fade into the background. However, Ike comfortably commands your undivided attention as you wait in eager anticipation for the next note. Fans of The David Crowder* Band, Hillsong United, and Jackie François will need to carve out room in their playlists for this exciting new artist.

Resonates with the young Church
The enthusiasm that is quickly building behind Ike's music and ministry is a testament to a passionate faith that resonates with youth, high school students and young adults. Youth ministers: this CD would be great for retreats, Bible study groups and youth events.
