Vibrant, prayerful and lush, Set Free is more acoustic than Steve's previous collections, arranged with the simple instrumentation of church ensembles in mind. Seven of the ten songs were composed for use in prayer and liturgy.
That doesn't mean the music holds back. The title track is a jamming pop-rock song celebrating the "God who truly sets us free from the chains that bind us." Both "Sweet Redeemer," co-written with Sarah Hart, and "Keep our Eyes on Jesus," a soulful gospel piece, will get hands clapping.
One highlight is "Daniel's Heart," which shows how the suffering and courage of three Daniels -- the young man from Steve's parish who died in the Columbine shooting, an infant named after him who had open heart surgery, and the biblical Daniel -- united and inspired the communities around them. Steve says this touching song is the best he's ever written.

A collection for worship by one of our time's most accomplished liturgical composers. Arranged simply, All Are Welcome is intended to be performed with either grand or limited resources. Abounding in the Haugen tradition, the title hymn is a song of gathering and therefore a natural outgrowth of "Gather Us In." A wonderful liturgical mood for Easter is set by "Springs of Water, Bless the Lord." "On the Journey to Emmaus" is an arrangement of the Gaelic tune columcille. Full of interesting rhythms, images, and harmonies, "God of the Sparrow" with text by Jaroslav Vajda was originally intended as a choir piece, making it something of a departure for Marty. The gospel-style "Bread to Share" rounds out the collection. "Morning Intercessions" offers a prayerful beginning to every day.
