Juke Jules SUBS 22nd Feb 2020 | | CD AlbumKatherine Jenkins - Guiding Light (2018) | The insert showing UK tour dates must surely make this a UK release, but without the insert I feel it would be European.

The powerful guitar break on "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing" is probably by Kenny Greenberg. Many session musicians were credited on this album including Michael Omartian and Vince Gill. See Wikipedia

Juke Jules SUBS 16th Feb 2020 | | CD AlbumThe Robertson Family - Praise Him | I'm amused to see that the one track without composer credits on this Robinson Family album was written by the 18th century pastor and hymnodist Robert Robinson. Who knows, there might be a direct line of descent from the hymnodist.
Unfortunately there is no YT video of the hymn on this album, but it is a well-known and popular hymn in the USA
