Honor and Praise

Author: Twila Paris

Twila Paris (born 1958, Fort Worth, Texas) is an American singer–songwriter whose congregational pieces—“He Is Exalted,” “We Will Glorify,” “Lamb of God,” and others—entered hymnals and became staples of late-twentieth-century worship. Beginning with family ministry concerts in childhood, she went on to a long recording career, multiple Dove Awards, and induction into the GMA Hall of Fame; she makes her home in Arkansas and continues to write and minister.
