We have just added the MultiTracks from Austin Worship Leader Stephen Miller's Christmas EP Light Has Broken Through. On the canvas of soaring strings and unplugged instruments, this album features a number of reimagined Christmas classics that aim at true adoration, helping congregations engage in the truth of Christmas in a way that won't quench worship, but fuel it.
Worshippers will love these new arrangements which include a new rendition of "O Come All Ye Faithful (He Alone Is Worthy)" and "Angels We Have Heard On High (Glory To God Most High)" which maintains the familiarity of the carol in the verses, but introduces a new chorus that praises, "Glory to God Most High. All glory to God Most High." Similarly, "Hark the Herald Angels Sing (Light Has Broken Through)" also includes an additional chorus that invites everyone to join together to praise the newborn King, rejoicing in the hope and light He has brought to the world. With great joy and a driving beat, it encourages worshippers to "Raise your voice to praise the God of our salvation. Hope has come to heal the world and rule the nations. Light has broken through the darkness to set the captives free so we will sing all glory to the King."
"Nothing Can Slow You Down" is an original duet that Stephen sings with Meredith Andrews. Integrating the melody of "O Come O Come Emmanuel" into the instrumental lines, it is the song of a people who trust in the God who has promised to save them. It rejoices in His sovereignty, singing, "God of our rescue, Nothing can stop You. Nothing can slow You down. You won’t forsake us - You’re coming to save us.
Nothing can slow you down"
and closes with the promise, "Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee oh Israel!"
