“Crafted directly from inspiration found in hymnals and prayer books, songwriter and worship leader Rick Lee James offers Hymns, Prayers and Invitations. It is with the intentionality behind the last word of the album title, Invitations, that makes this project a stand out. More than a collection of hymny interpretations or simple song book upgrades, James’ purposeful use of lyric, timbre, and track synchronism should lead the listener into moments of powerful communication and worship with the Lord. Hymns, Prayers and Invitations drip with soundtracks of Sunday morning sanctuaries to intimately personal prayer closet concerts.”
“The modern hymn approach to congregational songwriting and singing has a worthy new addition”
“If you’re looking for music that is congregational yet not cookie cutter, get this album”
Christ Is Lord (Christ Before Me), the first single from my album “Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations” is featured in the September/October 2016 release of Worship Leader’s Song DISCovery. Be watching https://songdiscovery.com/ in September and October for more information.

Hello my friends,
Every year in their Nov/Dec issue, Worship Leader Magazine releases their end-of-the-year Best of the Best resources for Worship Leaders.
This issue is currently in the works. WLM’s team of editors, writers, and trusted professionals are getting ready to choose which resources from the past year were most useful in their ministries, and they want to make sure to include you in the running.
If you have found the music on my album, “Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations” to be a useful and good resource for your ministry, it would mean the world to me if you could go to their web site and submit my album in the appropriate category. You can also submit a nomination for my podcast, Voices In My Head, if you have found it a valuable resource for your worship ministry.
You can also list any other new resources that you have found useful in this past year.
As you can imagine, there is a large amount of worship-related products for them to consider, and they don’t want to miss any. So, If you have any resources software, gadgets, gear, music, websites, etc., that released this past year, please remind them about it, and they will put it in the running.
Products must have been released or received (or will be released/receive) a major overhaul between January 1, 2016, and January, 1, 2017.
Please take the time to submit your favorite resources of the year at this link. I hope my new worship music has been one of them.
A friend of mine challenged me to write a version of the hymn “Cleanse Me (Search Me O God)” in the style of “The Civil Wars”. This is a live Facebook video of me trying to do that. I hope you enjoy it.
