PURCHASE OUR MUSIC
A desire for meekness and a longing to touch the heart of God through transforming worship drives Merchant Band’s third album, Let the Weak Speak. Music flooded with indie rock and techno beats in this new album sets it apart from the traditional. More than a worship CD, Let the Weak Speak is edgy and modern, but also infused with pure truth concerning Christ.
After spending hundreds of hours meditating on the Word and worshiping the Lord, Marcus Meier and Tim Reimherr came together once again to put out an album filled with the heart beat of the International House of Prayer-KC. The depth of lyrics and anointing of song comes forth from Merchant Band because of their commitment to serving Christ through embracing a life of prayer and fasting.
Let the Weak Speak is rock driven and full of creative sounds along with experimental arrangements. Each song carries its own feel and expression, from the raw pound of the acoustic piano to the haunting melodies of the electric guitar. The Spirit of God champions the vulnerable lyrics, as Marcus and Tim cry out through anthems of love for Christ to return.
A theme of desperation for God can be heard as Marcus and Tim compliment one another to form a complete album. Birthed from an intercession set at the house of prayer, Tim’s intense song “Standing in the Gap” is a cry for the Lord to have mercy on America through forgiveness and the ending of abortion. Mature melodies rise from Marcus as he sings “Grace and Glory”, which draws the listener into deep, corporate worship. A pulsating drum beat echoes through “My Reward” as Tim’s ambient vocals proclaim the message of living for God alone. The pure acoustic piano leads the way for Marcus to beautifully sing of the mercy of Christ in “So in Love”.Let the Weak Speak is atmospheric worship with rich revelation found in the Word about who we are as believers and the grace we apprehend when we commune with the glory of God. The album invites you to enter into that heart cry to know God and get lost in Him through abandoned praise. Marcus and Tim sing with an openness and vulnerability that allows for the weakness of man to connect with the strength of Jesus. For it is only when we are weak, that He can be made strong.
