Reviewed by Trevor Kirk When Denise, Heather, Shelley and Terry began their musical partnership in 1993, I don’t think they could have imagined how much success they were going to have with their close harmony, polished pop gospel music. Now, 10 years on, a greatest hits album with a difference, because these two CDs, with a total running time of 107 minutes, contain 24 songs that have each made number one on the American CCM singles charts, and these are the classics: “One More Broken Heart”, “Jesus Will Still Be There”, “Dying To Reach You”, “Wonder Of It All”, “My God”, “Steady On”, and many more songs that have been big radio hits on UCB down the years. Some may sneer at what may be perceived as “manufactured music”, but these lasses can sing, and with all the musicians and producers who have worked with them in the last 10 years, it’s almost impossible not to come up with a quality product. So if there’s no Point Of Grace on your CD rack, this is as good a place as any to start.

Nice 2 cd set celebrating 24 #1 hits from one of CCM's top leading ladies' groups. The long list of songs starts off with a new song "Day by Day" which is considered a bonus track on the cd. After the new song we are taken back 10 years to the debut release of songs all the way up to year 2001.
These are the songs that made the girls a success in the ccm field. "I'll be Believing", "Dying to Reach You",
"Gather at the River", "Keep the Candle Burning", &
"Circle of Friends" I have on video format. I love the songs "Gather at the River" and "I'll be Believing".
I was taken by the group ever since their initial release; when I heard "One More Broken Heart" on ccm airwaves it spoke. Over 1 1/2 hours of listening pleasure contained on the 2 cds. God bless, Don
