Encompassing a sound of global praise, Keith & Kristyn Getty (Northern Ireland) release Facing A Task Unfinished, inspired by the Frank Houghton hymn penned in 1931 of the same name. Facing persecution as a worker for China Inland Mission (now OMF International), Houghton wrote the song “with the belief that God’s people singing together fueled mission.” Within that same spirit, the chants of Ladysmith Black Mambazo on “Children Come,” the tribal beats of “May The Peoples Praise You” and “For The Cause,” and the congregational singing throughout the album weave a tapestry of worship that would motivate the heart of any believer to fan the flame for Christ. This is a special album that bears further proof of the unending power of the hymn.
