Description
Burst Forth Creation, sub-titled Songs of Eucharist and Praise, is an album by the American folk-rock group God Unlimited, self-released on their own label GU in 1977. The album was engineered by Bruce Dees at International Studios in North Augusta, South Carolina; and was produced and directed by Rev. Thomas Belt.
The Lord is Come! SALVATION! Jesus comes in the Word; He is the Word. When the word is sent forth in truth creation begins. When it it received, salvation is experienced, renewal takes place. Jesus comes in many ways: our neighbor, the breaking of the bread, creation… When and Where He is received new things happen: New relationships form, New Hope springs forth, New Mystery is revealed in the eucharistic Feast.
BURST FORTH CREATION is a collection of songs representing the Spirit of the Lord at work in celebration, in eucharist, in an offering of gifted people known as GOD UNLIMITED, and outreach of the Alleluia Community in Augusta, Georgia, and Phoenix, Arizona, and Berkley, California.
It is our prayer that you will enjoy this offering to create new songs for liturgy, prayer and praise fellowship, and inspiration for your families. [Liner notes printed on the back of the LP sleeve]
As with the similar sounding That They May Be One, God Unlimited’s final album doesn’t have the passion, energy or depth of their earlier material. Glimmers of the old charm still surface on «Trilogy» and the dulcimer-backed «Allelu, Pass It On», both of which make Burst Forth Creation a justifiable pursuit for the God Unlimited fan. Also a decent solo acoustic tune from Robbie Bethancourt called «Seeing The Crowds». All originals, plus a cover of Suzanne Toolan’s «I Am The Bread Of Life». Subtitled Songs Of Eucharist and Praise. [Ken Scott, The Archivist, 4th edition]
