Morse grew up in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles as one of four children. His father was a choral director. Morse started to play the piano at the age of five and started to learn to play the guitar at the age of nine. During his twenties he wrote two musicals (Hit Man and Homeland), did some session jobs, tried to get a deal as a singer/songwriter in Los Angeles, and recorded a few country and western demos with his brother Richard.
Great God Who Saves is the first official studio album from singer/songwriter Laura Story. The album was released on March 18, 2008.
Critical reception
Great God Who Saves garnered generally positive reception from music critics to critique the album. At CCM Magazine, David McCreary felt that the album was "As soothing as a cup of herbal tea after a hectic day, Story's debut should serve as a cathartic achievement for the artist and a rewarding gift to listeners." Andree Farias of Allmusic affirmed that the album "has already positioned itself as one of the most moving inspirational albums of 2008, a welcome reminder that worship music need not be loud and in your face to be worshipful."
At Christianity Today, Russ Breimeier highlighted that someone "could say Story is to Tomlin as Kathryn Scott is to Brian Doerksen—perhaps not as consistent in developing anthems for the church, but consistently good at delivering beautiful melodies with a sweetly lilting vocal." Martin I. Smith of Cross Rhythms told that Story "has created a mature and creatively rich record that proudly launches her onto the major label scene". In addition, Smith noted that "The record, punctuated by the occasional ballad and at times upping the pace with foot-tap inducing pop songs, is balanced in its delivery, and, while it leans primarily on Laura's haunting vocals and emotive lyrics, manages to create a listening experience far more rounded and fully realised than your average singer/songwriter release."
"Mighty to Save" is a contemporary Christiangospel and worship song written by Ben Fielding and Reuben Morgan and part of the repertoire of Hillsong Church. The rights to the song are registered for Hillsong Publishing. The song has been adopted as an occasional song of worship by many Evangelical churches.
The song was the title track of the Hillsong 2006 album Mighty to Save released 2 July 2006 and recorded live on 5 March 2006 at the Sydney Entertainment Centre, Sydney, Australia. In that 6 minute 50 second rendition, Reuben Morgan was the worship leader, with supporting main vocals by Darlene Zschech & Joel Houston.
The lyrics praise the might of Jesus as "The Hope of the Nation" and "Author of Salvation" and that he can move the mountains (referring to Matthew 17:20) and that he conquered the grave (referring to his Resurrection). The bridge repeats the faith in him as Saviour:
Awards and nominations
"Mighty to Save" was nominated for "Song of the Year" at the 40th GMA Dove Awards.
The Neal Morse Band's triumphant double-album, The Similitude of a Dream, is the most acclaimed release that Morse has helmed to date. The 2017 tour was their largest yet, including new continents for the band. At the O13 in Tilburg, Holland, the stars aligned for the most commanding performance of the run, captured for live release in stunning quality. "An epic night on an epic tour," proclaims Neal.
Enjoy this wonderful musical concert!
