She has recorded an album entitled "Keep the Faith", which has seen her once again team up with David Ricketts who collaborated with her on her critically acclaimed debut album twenty years earlier. The album drew heavily from material Childs wrote in the mid-1990s and she has stated that "Keep the Faith" is "an apt title given personal and world events". It consisted of eleven new songs and the track "Because You're Beautiful". Originally available direct from the artist, "Keep the Faith" is distributed on general release in the United States by 429 Records (part of the Savoy group of record companies) as of January 2009. It is also available in New Zealand, distributed by MGM Distribution Pty Ltd. The album was released in Australia in August 2008, featuring first single "One Life". Childs performed a concert tour of the country in September 2008, and again there (with Jackson Browne) in February/March 2009.
