Most of the Trust songs are now available on iTunes.
2nd review for the CD ‘Trust’ NZ Baptist magazine Nov 07
This is Kiwi/UK Music I would put under the banner of “Christian Worship” with a Folk Celtic feel. Its nicely produced by Wayne Huirua, and also features Libby Huirua vocally. Its recorded live at St Georges in Auckland, a very cool looking old building with wooden pews and heaps of character.
This CD that David has thoughtfully arranged is a great worship album and I am confident that you will go on a journey toward the heart of our God during your time listening to it. Just make sure you rescue the perishing and care for the dying on your return (track 7).
There are definitely songs that could be used in church for congregational singing. I won’t suggest which ones would work, I will leave that for you to decide as opinions can often vary. But in saying that, Glory to God our Father, and, We Live in the Shelter, I reckon would work?
Instruments used to create the mood of this 17 track album include heaps of acoustic gat, piano, keys, congos, flute, cello, 30 piece choir, violins and not forgetting David’s sincere and smooth vocals. If you’re into Scripture and Song and Stephen Bell Booth type music with a mega in-house appeal, this is it! Enjoy.

We are editing footage of the exciting live recording earlier this year. It features David, band, 30 voice choir, string section and a great gathering of people to worship, the in the gorgeous surrounding of our home church, St Georges, Epsom, Auckland, NZ!
There are live shots for most of the 13 songs, the prayers including David’s wife Liz Morris, and some great stills of all the team, including producer Wayne Huirua and the tech crew.
Send us a note if you would like to get hold of a copy at NZ$30 when we have that ready around Christmas time.

‘Trust’ Review in Daystar NZ
Review by Fay McNeil
This new live album, based on Psalm 9l, is David’s tenth, and all the songs have been written by him and his friends and recorded in New Zealand.
The strongest theme is the significance of worship when we are in the dark times of trial and suffering. For example track 2, “We Live in the Shelter”, which is the theme song for the album, was written in Nelson at a time when David’s wife, Liz, was facing serious health issues. The song has a haunting refrain, affirming that God who we trust is our refuge and fortress. It features Wayne Huirua’s playing and production, and cellist Alex Smart.
All the songs are scripture-based and often inspired by the lives of biblical and modern-day saints. In the Heavenly Man book, the worship of the Chinese prisoner, who was strengthened by singing scripture, was the basis of track3, “As Long as I may Live”, with its answering phrase “I will only love my Lord”.
Track 7 – a new version of Fannie Crosby’s “Rescue the perishing” – was inspired by the lives of Mother Teresa and Jackie Pullinger.
This is a great album, with songs that will lead you into worship, interspersed with prayers, and closing with an instrumental epilogue as the instruments are played under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Every word is crystal clear and the presence of the Holy Spirit evident throughout. It will have a wide appeal, with tracks that have a rock feel, along with those that feature acoustic guitar, or strings and choir, more strongly.
