Indelible Grace is a collective of musicians who take the words of old hymns and compose new music for them.
From their website:
Our goal is not change for change’s sake, but to rekindle a love of hymns and to invite many who would never associate rich passion with hymns to actually read the words. We believe that we are impoverished if we cut off our ties with the saints of the past, and that we fail to be faithful to God in our own moment of history if we don’t attempt to praise Him in forms that are authentic to who we are.
We believe that the words of a hymn actually have more emotional nuance than one piece of music can adequately capture. Thus singing even familiar hymns with different music can bring out shades of meaning that had remained unnoticed. For instance, while the traditional music for Toplady’s “Rock of Ages” conveys the power and strength of the words, James Ward’s more recent tune brings out the sweetness and tenderness that is also part of the emotion in the lyric.
Their latest album was recorded live at the Ryman Theatre in Nashville. The double album features 18 tracks.
It can be purchased from the Indelible Grace website. Purchase includes an immediately available download copy of the album.
