''You Deliver Me'' is Selah's seventh studio album. It features a cover of Hillsong Worship's "Hosanna". The album was released August 25, 2009. Critical reception Andree Farias of AllMusic concludes his review with, "Selah is perhaps the only unoriginal true original left in Christian music, a group that sticks to its classic guns while everyone else chases the latest flavor of the moment." Dale Lewis reviews the album for ''TitleTrakk'' and begins, "Selah, best known for their contemporary hit "You Raise Me Up," returns with a very personal and poignant album in ''You Deliver Me''." Suzie Brock of ''Cross Rhythms'' gives the album 8 out of a possible 10 and writes, "Throughout the whole album the standard of the lead vocals and harmonies is very high, with every song being touching in a different way.

Selah (band) Albums
(; hbo, סֶלָה, selā) is a word used 74 times in the Hebrew Bible. Its etymology and precise meaning are unknown, though various interpretations are given. It is probably either a liturgical-musical mark or an instruction on the reading of the text, with the meaning of "stop and listen." Another proposal is that can be used to indicate that there is to be a musical interlude at that point in the Psalm. It can also be interpreted as a form of underlining in preparation for the next paragraph. It should not be confused with the Hebrew word () meaning "rock". Occurrences This word occurs 71 times in 39 of the Psalms, and three times in Habakkuk 3: altogether 74 times in the Bible. It is found at the end of Psalms 3, 24, and 46, and in most other cases at the end of a verse, the exceptions being Psalms 55:19, 57:3, and Habakkuk 3:3, 9, 13. At least some of the Psalms were sung accompanied by musical instruments and there are references to this in many chapters. Thirty-on ...

Multiple models have been produced, most of which use sliding #Drawbars, drawbars to vary sounds.
