WorshipAndAdoreCDTargeted toward a busy holiday season, Worship & Adore: A Christmas Offering aims to keep listeners focused on worship during Christmas. The album, releasing Sept. 22 from Integrity Music (Provident-Integrity Distribution), brings together 10 Integrity worship artists and award-winning writers to create new songs for personal times of devotion, corporate worship and holiday gatherings.

Writers including Paul Baloche, Don Poythress, Jared Anderson, Tony Wood, Chris Eaton and Joel Augé deliver songs from shepherds, kings and angels to join the voices of Mary and Joseph as they celebrate the birth of the Savior.

The 11-track project begins with a special version of "Offering" penned by Baloche, a two-time Dove Award winner for Inspirational Song of the Year. "Offering" is performed by Baloche and fellow artists, including Lincoln Brewster and Kari Jobe.

From there, the album flows into "Adore Him," penned by Poythress and Wood and delivered by Jobe, the best-selling new artist in Christian music.

Other standouts include "Glory to God," another Poythress/Wood song Brewster delivers in rocking style, and "Messiah's Song," written and sung by Anderson.

Poythress, who is known for writing hits for country stars like Tim McGraw and Clint Black, performs "Joseph," a look at the Christmas story from an unsung hero.

A companion CD-ROM digital songbook, which releases simultaneously with the CD, is fully transposable and offers printable sheet music, chord charts and lyric text files.

To order the CD (0-00768-46852-4) and digital songbook (0-00768-46850-0), call 800-333-9000, or visit www.provident-integrity.com.
