This compilation of worship songs on the subject of divine love would work nicely with your early morning coffee or driving to work as part of a devotional time. "Because Of Your Love" seems like the perfect start and the lyrics, "You came to save the world, your love can change the world," screams out the foundation of the Christian faith and was Jesus' main mantra. It's a tad disappointing that "You Never Let Go" is not the original by Matt and Beth Redman as the vocal is weak and doesn't carry the power that the words reflect. Again the Jesus Culture version of "Your Love Never Fails" would fare better than the version included, yet doesn't deny the truth in "All things work together for my good." One strange omission from this album is Ben Cantelon's "Love Came Down" however its namesake does contain one of the weightiest lyrics of the entire album, "We will tell the story, we will sing the song, the promise of salvation, justice for all." Overall, a so-so compilation.
