Must Hear!! Soulful Hymns? An oxymoron right? Wrong!
This CD couldn't possibly have another title. Ask yourself, Why do we sing hymns? Hymns are our invitation to the saving of souls.
From the funky rhythm of Awesome God to the Bluesy "Glory to HIS name", Jon Gibson once again shows why he is such a blessed artist. I first heard "Glory to HIS name" while listening to CSN(Calvary Satellite Network) online. I couldn't believe what I was hearing!! I tried to figure out who it was. I said, that's Joe(Thomas), no that's DeAngelo(Archer) [both of whom are son's of preachers] Who is that?
Jon takes hymns to another stratosphere.
With pipes that rival Stevie Wonder and guitar riffs that would
make Clapton shake in his boots, every track is unique in it's Gibson inspired soulfullness. Jon Gibson leaves his listeners blessed and intrigued at the way God uses those who are willing.
More importantly, works like Jon's and Kirk Franklin's, should help more of us to realize that we're not using wordly music;
WE'RE JUST TAKING OUR MUSIC BACK FROM THE WORLD.
A gift from God to us.
This album is a must buy for any Christian. |
