Hope: Songs of Faith and Inspiration

'Hope: Songs of Faith and Inspiration' is a multi-artist album of uplifting music and spoken word emanating both from within and also outside the Christian faith. Produced by musical director for the stars, Chong Lim, the album represents a partnership between ABC Music, Universal Music Australia and World Vision Australia.

With guest appearances from a who's-who of Australian and international celebrities, 'Hope' is an album like no other, its theme of spiritual and psychological rejuvenation through the joy of music offering a fresh view of timeless, uplifting classic songs. In a coup for ABC Music, the current 'leading lady' of Christian music, Darlene Zschech, has recorded the appropriately-titled track "My Hope" especially for the album, while Olivia Newton John performs the inspiring "Isn't It Amazing". Chart-topping young stars Mark Vincent and Stan Walker are also featured, alongside a cappella vocal legends The Idea of North. The one-hit-after-another formula is held together by inspiring reflections on Hope by 'the voice of Australia's conscience', the Rev. Tim Costello.
