Take 'Em With You is a compilation music sampler album that was released on cassette tape only in the spring of 1985 on Word Records. As a precursor to the WOW Music series of the mid 1990s, this sampler, and other future releases, features tracks from the Word recording artists of the time showcasing their music. The first in the series features songs like "Wise Up" by Amy Grant, "It Is Finished" by Petra, "The Unknown Soldier" by David Meece and many others. Many of the Take 'Em With You series were either sold free or at a reduced price with the purchase of one of their Word titles in Christian bookstores. It was also part of a campaign with Sony Audio as they were giving away their Sony Walkman cassette tape players as part of a contest.
