Reviewed by Dawn Tucker
This album comprises of a live recording from Conerstone Church in Toledo. With its full gospel presentation it fills the room with its powerful, full orchestral and choir sound. I particularly liked "I Lift My Hands", being more gentle and tranquil than some of the other tracks, yet not lacking any of the power which this album has. "I Exalt Thee" will be a familar song to many. The interpretation of this gives it a completely different style and life. The majority of the album is in gospel style but with influences from other styles such as reggae. If you enjoy gospel music you will enjoy this album. It has a strong presence and therfore does not transpire for background music! It does however create a worshipful, uplifting atmosphere.
