ABOUT THIS ALBUM


Album Notes
This is the 2nd disk in a collection of Rick's early praise and worship choruses. If you attended church back in the late 70's, 80's, or 90's (... the days of vinyl and cassettes ...), then you'll most likely be familiar with many of these recordings. The titles are assembled in alphabetical order and span two discs of 20 tracks each.

Some songs will stir memories of early days in your walk with Christ. Others will serve to infuse your heart with hope for His wonders yet to come.

Rick Founds has been leading worship since he was fourteen years of age. He has authored numerous songs that are used every week in church services worldwide. Some titles include: "Lord, I Lift Your Name On High", “I Love Your Grace", Jesus, Mighty God", "I Need You’, and "Jesus, Draw Me Close".

Rick lives in Southern California with his wife Debbie.

He currently spends his time and energies as a college multi media technician, a songwriter, worship leader, and zookeeper to a chocolate lab, chesapeake bay retriever , three alpacas, a turkey, six hens, "Otis", the singing canary and "Popeye", the green amazon parrot.

Rick adeptly avoids the songwriter's pitfall of noticeable similarity from one tune to the next. Instead, his music is a blend of various styles, from ballads to rock, both up-tempo and down. Each song has its own memorable hook and a personality of its own.

Listen for widely varied instrumentations, well-placed accompaniments (vocal as well as instrumental), and uncompromising production values throughout this two-CD collection.

In addition to such well-known songs as Jesus, Mighty God, this second CD also includes the all-time Rick Founds classic composition, Lord, I Lift Your Name on High -- arguably the most ubiquitous worship song of the last two decades. It's heard not only in churches of all Christian denominations everywhere, but also in airports, retail stores, and (dare I say it) even in the proverbial elevators! Yet it never fails to inspire, which is what makes it a true classic.

Listening to the whole collection of Praise Classics (CDs 1 and 2), I am reminded over and over, "Oh yeah, Rick wrote that one, too!" What a joy for me to be drawn into the throne room of God while listening to a genuinely gifted modern-day hymnist. Thank you, Rick! You're a blessing to the body of Christ.
