Close to You
Description
On Survivor’s Emerge label comes the latest gem to be unearthed from Irish soil. Johnny Parks is the worship leader at Mannafest, a monthly Youth For Christ event held in Belfast’s Ulster Hall. This, the first live Emerge album, is bursting with zeal and creativity reflecting what God is doing in Northern Ireland.On Close to You Johnny and band, who also led worship at the Crossrhythms festival last summer, sparkle throughout the 7 tracks featured. Title track Close to You, a song about gratitude and grace, kicks of proceedings. The U2ish God of great things with Johnny exhorting the assembled masses to "go for it" quickly follows the song Glory. God is still for us is a gentle atmospheric song of encouragement whilst soon to be classic Breathe with it’s Bono style vocal, finds Johnny calling to God for intimacy and fellowship.
As part of the worship team at CFC, Belfast, Johnny Parks has the privilege of working with Brian Houston and Robin Mark and there is evidence of the formers influence. Close to You is a great album from one of Ireland’s finest.
