I Exalt Thee: 50 Years of Scripture in Song

The story of Scripture in Song is a NZ story, uniquely NZ. A tiny country produced a little idea that took the world by storm. It's a story that changed the way people do church right around the globe. It started a revolution in Praise and worship.

David and Dale Garratt and friends wrote easy to sing tunes and words right out of the Bible... Scripture in Song was born. What if the songs were catchy easy to sing. Guitars and drums were brought into the church. A new time and season began.

On the 29th and 30th of March Christians from around the world gathered at Life Central in Auckland to celebrate 50 years of Scripture in Song.

"We made the album "I Exalt Thee" to commemorate the 50th celebration event which itself was very God honouring time.The 50th celebration proved to us once again what a longing there is in people's hearts to worship God. For us it was very gratifying to see so many people worship so exuberantly. The purpose of the album and the event was to lead people in to the presence of God to enable them to establish a personal relationship with God. - David and Dale Garratt
