Fall 2009
SHELTER
Shelter, “a service of comfort and hope” created by Paul, is finished. This is a work for the church, full of beautiful choral arrangements and lyrics bathed in scripture. It will be available November 2009. Check it out at www.Lifeway.com. Here is what the arranger working on the project said:
When Paul Marino first played me these songs I was deeply moved. Would I be a part of the Shelter journey?” How could I not? It was clear that the Lord had spoken to Paul and his co-writers in a very special way. It would be a privilege.
What I could not have known is how these songs would minister to me. As I lived with this inspired work over the days and weeks to follow, the Lord spoke to me through the gentle melodies and heartfelt texts. There is one message He stressed to me over and over again: BE STILL and know that I am God. BE STILL. Oh, how I long to separate from the chaos of our contemporary world and listen for His voice. I must do it daily.
May you be blessed by this work. May you bless others as you sing it.
In Christ,
Phillip Keveren
