Amazon.com: An impressive thread of praise and worship runs through the career of Michael W. Smith. After all, he's penned two of today's finest modern praise songs ("Great Is the Lord" and "Agnus Dei"), and he was the creative genius behind Exodus, a brilliant collection of worship material. Yet that same artistic spirit seems sadly lacking on Worship, Smith's first solely praise and worship release. All parts are assembled, with Smith on vocals and keyboards, and an all-star choir of Amy Grant, Phillips, Craig & Dean, Chris Rice, Cindy Morgan, and others backing him on this live release. But outside of a few selected tracks ("Let It Rain" and "Draw Me Close"), Worship falls flat. Smith's decision to cover the day's most popular praise songs and not focus on new material of his own weakens the record's impact. In fact, "Purified," one of two studio tracks on the release, was cowritten by Smith and his wife, and it's the CD's brightest moment. While Worship is not a forgettable release, it is, unfortunately, predictable. --Michael Lyttle

This album is so wonderful. I keep listening to it while driving and when I go to bed, I still listen to it. It helps me get ready to talk to God and worship him again and again.The songs are great!
Rating: - worship CD by Michael Smith
It's a good CD. More like a live concert. Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase and the transaction with the seller too. The CD came in a timely fashion.
Rating: - Michael W. Smith
I recently had the opportunity to see Michael W. in person and had the pleasure of doing the meet and greet before his performance. He is such a very spiritual person and very down to earth. Watching and listening to him, I can see why he is one of the top Contemporary Christian musicians today. He has been around for a long time and I can see him being around for a long time to come. This is a wonderful CD and I will be buying more music my him.

Rating: - Smitty is a blessing!
Absolutely incredible! From the first opening strains to the last amen this is my current all-time favorite worship album! I just wish we could hear the entire concert and not just the music. It's been a while since I've seen Smitty perform in concert and I miss him.
