Sara Groves Reveals Compelling New Hymns Record,\u00a0Abide With Me,\u00a0<\/em>To Release Nov. 17\u00a0<\/strong>And Launches Exclusive Preorder Experience With Pledge Campaign<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nashville, Tenn. (Sept. 28, 2017)<\/strong>\u00a0– Sara Groves announces the release of her 13th studio album,\u00a0Abide With Me<\/em>, for Nov. 17th. Following her critically acclaimed\u00a0Floodplain<\/em>, the record includes songs carefully selected from Groves’ personal list of hymns, with each song having provided a source of healing and comfort to the singer\/songwriter throughout the years.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“My last album found me on the\u00a0Floodplain\u00a0reflecting on the kind provision that comes when I find myself in a place where I cannot rescue myself,” says Groves. “Abide With Me<\/i>\u00a0is a collection of hymns and songs that were\u00a0with me<\/i>\u00a0on the Floodplain.\u00a0A highlight for me was re-tracking ‘He\u2019s Always Been Faithful’ with piano, upright bass and woodwinds.\u00a0 My bandmates and I guesstimate that we have played that song well over 1,000 times, and these days it is loaded with the memories of 20 years of making music.”<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Fittingly recorded in a 105 year old church converted into a studio by Groves alongside her bandmates, Groves’ latest is both personal and congregational, with songs like\u00a0\u201cTis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus\u201d staying close to the original hymn, while others such as \u201cOh My Redeemer What a Friend You Are to Me,\u201d and \u201cFairest Lord Jesus\u201d take on their own creative flair.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
For this album, Groves is giving fans the opportunity to be a part of her newest project in a unique way through a\u00a0PledgeMusic experience<\/a>. F<\/span>ans will have the chance to dig deeper into the music with Sara, and will find other specially crafted items and offers available.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“I am well aware that this is a symbiotic relationship, and I would not be making music without your being there to listen,” shares Groves. “Thank you for your support over all of this time. I hope these songs speak to you as they have spoken to me!”<\/span><\/div>\n
