Background
The album is an instrumental collection of songs with an 88-piece orchestra by Bethel Music from Brian & Jenn Johnson's fourth album, After All These Years (2017),[2] a critically acclaimed and commercially successful release by the duo.[3] The album has been promoted as a project that is "intended to be a tool for devotion; an invitation to step away from the distractions of life into peace, clarity and encounter with God's presence."[1][4]
Jono Davies, reviewing the album for Louder Than The Music, bestowed a rating of four and a half stars, observed "moments of pure brilliance here, and there are moments that are also hauntingly beautiful - and if that wasn't enough, there are also moments that just capture your soul when you start to listen."[5] Davies came to the conclusion that "This album sounds different to most albums out now, but for all the right reasons, and it is such a stunning album. This new album is classical, instrumental and modern orchestral music at its best."[5]
