Revelation Song offers a glimpse into the throne room of heaven and the ceaseless worship of the angels and saints. The song has such a deceptively simple structure - just the same 4 chords repeating over and over. But within that structure is so much room for experimentation, wonder and surprise. I can't think of a better way to worship the God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever but whose mercies are new every morning!

Virtual Choir #12 is a joint effort of 120 singers and ASL signers from 29 countries. In there you'll find kindergartners, great-grandparents, and everything in between! I'm so grateful for the chance to work with such a fantastic (and diverse) musical community over the last 5 years. Thanks to the newcomers and veterans alike!

Joining us on cello is 16-year-old Elijah de la Motte. Elijah is a pre-college student at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and appeared on America's Got Talent. He's #3 in a musical family of 10 kids (and very busy mom and dad). I wrote 24 loops of 4 bars each for Elijah to record, with nothing but a metronome as a guide. I was able to mix and match these 24 loops to create the highs and lows that give the performance its shape (and breaks through all the repetition). I hope you were as blown away by Elijah's passionate performance as I was!
