Over the years, my pal (and duo partner) Spencer Capier and I have been repeatedly given the holy privilege of helping groups of people sing out their worship. The songs on this project are our "GoTos"—the words and melodies that reliably unlock our hearts and open us up to the God who thought of music and community in the first place. We hope that maybe these songs can help unlock your heart, too. - Carolyn

IN THE MORNING is an acoustic worship EP that includes a new Arends original (“To Whom Shall We Go”), the discovery of three relatively unknown worship songs (“Come Away from Rush and Hurry,” “In the Morning,” and “We Come”) and fresh, heartfelt takes on three classics (“Psalm 5,” “Holy, Holy, Holy,” and “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name.”) Guests include Steve Bell, Ali Matthews, and Brian Morykon.

While singles from IN THE MORNING will be eventually be released to digital music platforms one by one, you can get the entire project (CD or digital) here now ~ it's a great way to get an early scoop on the music and support Carolyn's artistry at the same time.
