In Christ Alone: New Irish Hymns finds Margaret Becker, Maire Brennan, and Joanne Hogg teaming up to inject modern culture with a fresh breath of new hymn compositions, with a distinctly Celtic slant. Whoever came up with the notion of joining these three talented artists together under an Irish banner should receive some kind of award for the idea alone.

As one would expect, it's when the trio harmonizes together that the album is at its best. In Christ Alone won't be everyone's cup of tea, but on its own merits, it quietly fills your heart with joy and tears in all the right ways.
