Good CD to listen to
I've passed this album off to some of my friends in hard times and they enjoy listening to it no matter what religion they are. Always been a fan of FFH no matter where my faith takes me I still listen to them.


Disappointed, Not what I expected...
FFH has been a family favorite and we have most of their CD's. Not your typical FFH and I do not view that as a good thing. This one just seems to be lacking everything that made FFH so uplifting. Instead I found this cd to be just another praise and worship cd.


Great FFH Music
I have bought many where I only liked the song I bought it for and maybe one other. I don't think I have ever bought an album of any kind where I really liked every song and this one is no different. What a disappointment those were. I'd like to rate the songs individually as follows:

Trk#___Title___________________________Score
1. _____You Are God Alone________________10. 0
2. _____In The Waiting____________________6. 0
3. _____One And Only_____________________9. 5
4. _____Beautiful One____________________10. 0
5. _____Jesus I Am Resting, Resting_________9. 5
6. _____God Of The Promise_______________10. 0
7. _____Be Unto Your Name_______________10. 0
8. _____In Christ Alone___________________10. 0
9. _____I'm Free_________________________9. 0
10. ____Holding On_______________________7. 5

Music is perhaps one of the most subjective topics one could discuss so keep in mind that these are my opinions based on what I value. I do not give points for "it has a good beat and it's easy to dance to".

First and foremost it must not contradict the Scriptures.

Secondly it should, at a minimum, encourage my thoughts toward the Father. At most, it should draw me into His Presence and facilitate worship.
#7 does that and #8 is powerful, perhaps my very favorite song.
#1 and #4 follow close behind, in a slightly different way.
#3 is a song of commitment and consecration.
#5 is a beautiful psalm of praise in somewhat Olde English
#6 is a song of praise and affirmation of who God is.
#2, the title song. . . the lyrics seem a little weak and unclear to me. They're not bad, they just don't take me anywhere.
#9 has great lyrics. It's a great declaration of faith in what Christ did for us when He set us free.
#10 is okay. It had tremendous potential in the songwriting process but I have a hard time with any theology that talks about "holding on" while you are "going through". The song seems a bit too "storm-conscious" for me. We are "more than conquerors", "this is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith", "in this world you will have tribulation BUT take heart. I have overcome the world. ", "Thanks be unto God who causes us to triumph in Christ. " "Holding on" is too passive for me for "the violent shall take it by force. " That said, i do believe many will find it a lovely song.

Overall I think this is a great album. Right now I listen to it daily on my commute and enjoy the Presence of God on the highway. Agape.


Pure Worship
Most songs are familiar and those that aren't will get you worshipping anyway. This album is pure worship with great harmonies. Not all are the same version you would hear on the radio, but still a very good tool to get you worshipping.


Good CD
The songs are very meaningful, and I love anything by FFH!. At first, seems a bit slow but after a few listens, it really has grown on me.
