- "As executive producer, Billy Ray Hearn's intention was to make this 1979 recording more friendly to the 'man in the pew' by using a choral conductor, John Alldis, and modern orchestration. There was no attempt to be authentic or 'purist.' The purpose was to show this to be the greatest praise and worship composition ever"--Container insert.
