Description: The Puritans—men like John Bunyan, Richard Baxter, David Brainerd, and Isaac Watt—were giants of the faith, yet they keenly felt their own weakness. They knew their own hearts, they knew their God, and they really knew how to pray. These contemporary and yet reverent worship songs were based on their prayers from the classic book, 'The Valley of Vision,' with the hope that they will impact your own prayers, meditation, confession, and rejoicing before our Most High God! Many Puritans wrote down their prayers not to be published, but to assess their own spiritual growth and to encourage themselves in times of spiritual dryness. These prayers reveal a personal, humble, passionate relationship with an awesome God, a living Savior, and an active Spirit. Reading their meditations inspires us to pursue the same level of reality as we worship God.The songs on Valley of Vision draw from these prayers at various levels and in various ways. Some use a few phrases from a specific prayer, others develop a particular idea, and a few try to capture the original flow of thought, using many of the original words.We hope two things will happen when you listen to this CD. We trust these songs will make you more aware of God's holiness and more amazed at our Savior's sacrifice for undeserving sinners.
