Word of God: Songs of Praise Volume 1 Album 1

Word of God W/G 7608 (1976) Since I last posted a Word of God album, I had a long discussion with an historian of praise and worship music. He stated that the Word of God (and presumably the People of Praise as well) was an important part of the development of the entire praise and worship movement, which came into full flower the following decade. But some explanation of how this album--and the two which immediately followed it--came into being is necessary. The Word of God had a songbook entitled Songs of Praise. Many of those songs appeared in the community's albums which appear on this channel. The purpose of this and the other two that went with it was to record performances (I know they'd object to that characterisation, but this is an album, after all) so that prayer groups and communities alike could hear how they sounded. The purpose of this album was to disseminate the recordings of the songs that didn't appear in their regular album sequence. So how does it come off? Let's start by noting that this wasn't their "A list" of songs. Both the songs and the way they were performed vary in quality. On the other hand, many of these songs were in the core of the Charismatic Renewal and are precious, especially since the "Top 40" model praise and worship music has adopted tends to push the older songs aside. Many of these came from Pentecostal churches. This opened the WoG to criticism for "Protestant" influences, but also shows that conventional hymnody was being undermined in Evangelical and Evangelical-adjacent churches, something that has become very evident since. Note that quite a few of these songs appear elsewhere on the channel on non-Word of God albums if you want to hear them by their original artists or other performers. My deep thanks to Dennis for this music. The songs: A1 Allelu!
