THE STIRRING IN:
A lovely piece of poetic entrance musically, professionalism and dynamism were a key factor in the execution, lovely piece of work.

SHOW US YOU:
The choral execution of this song is purely divine, i so feel like worshiping right now. the instrumentation and the vocal insertions just gives a very solemn yet jived feel, makes you want to tap along or stand up in excitement while worshiping. This indeed is a quality worship song. Song composition and execution is pure undiluted art,i look to hearing more gospel renditions like this in the nearest future. The fact that this song somehow has a way of involving the listener in the song gives it a charming sensation that in no way allows the listener to be bored. Good job guys!

SANCTUARY:
When the song first came on,i had no idea what it was going to sound like but when the trumpet synths came in, another dynamism was added to it. I always love songs that urge a sense of suspense, very good execution. That drummer deserves a raise, he did justice with keeping up with the tempo of the song and adding a little somn” somn” at the endings. Good message and theme described in the song, melodious feel makes it a good choir song, i’m sure different church choirs will want a piece of this. I’m clapping along!

GOOD:
i liked the intro of this song, with the “i said its good, alright. Y’all” but when the song came on, i wasn’t really prepared for what i heard. it sounded on like a 90’s movie music clip. However, the execution was impressive, the strumming of the electric guitar was something to look forward to. The song didn’t really do justice for me on a preferential perspective but still doesn’t change the fact that it is a good record. the theme is a fantastic one

TEACH ME:
Jesus!!!!! This could officially pass for my best intro for 2014, wow! anything with a distinctive melody has my heart. The tempo of this song is something i wish more songs will emulate, very blue jazzy comfy feel lets you drift into the fantasy of the divine presence, hmmm hmmm! The singers on this just pulled a “David kind of praise”, very head swelling melodies. The essence of the theme was the main point of the song besides its medleys, the singers made sure of that by channeling a lot of emotions into delivering the lyrics. This is fantastic.

SEASON OF GREATER:
Another dynamism professionally executed in this song. The most visible point of this song is the lyrics,it just subdued and carried every other component of the song on its back. Such powerful words leave you with hope and assurance of a better future, i see people listening to this and bursting into tears. Song composition is superb, instrumentation is good but could be better. This is a good work of art.

UNSTOPPABLE:
The lead singer was indeed “unstoppable” on this record. He did a very professional singing, he knew when to go up and come down. the chords used in this song are pretty basic but somehow this song has re modified them to sound so positively extreme, great vocal intrusions as the song continued. The build up of this song is very awesome, it kept on increasing from point to point adding more intensity to the quality of worshiping it induces. Execution was a 1000%

MY LIFE IS A TESTIMONY:
The entrance of a soft solemn piano orchestration can never go wrong. From the beginning of this song, I’ve loved it already. Even if for example i don’t understand anything about music, i could easily relate to the powerful lyrics being sung by this singer. A very powerful work of art expressed here, its simplicity is its greatness. also a very good song for scoring options if only the effect of the singer can be replicated every time it is to be rendered. This is a very good record that needs not be talked about, come experience it for yourself. The intensity of the build up is a pleasure to listen to even in the depth of the pits. The theme of the song springs one into feels of positive emotion that is rare in most songs, my life is indeed a testimony, let’s witness to the angels!

WHILE HE IS NEAR:
Pure worship, that is all i can say! just Pure worship! execution, context, dynamism and medley is 100%

COME TO JESUS:
By the time i’m getting to this song i’m already worship excited and full of emotions already, how these songs manage to provoke these emotions i have no idea but they do. I wish everyone in the world could listen to this compilations, i have goose bumps listening to this already, enough said! The intensity and feel is overwhelming

TRIUMPHANT SONG:
The intro of this song urges a victory song well in,a very good entrance i must say. Victory songs with an actual victory feel are quite difficult to construct especially its intro, this song has managed to do all these and quite great at it too. Good melodies and the choice of tempo makes it a very good clap along song. great execution and composition, the feel of the chorus made the song unique for me. The concept of victory was well evident in the song. Good job guys!

OVER-COMER:
I was waiting for this throughout the whole compilation. Some jazzy church funk to bump and dance to. This is a very great song, the choice of instrumentation is just genius, those trumpets can do no wrong brother, i tell you (LOLL). The choral medley was executed properly without subduing the depth of the lead singer, this piece of little detail is usually being overlooked in some songs, I’m glad this didn’t. that guitarist lifted my soul with that solo, wooooooow! In you i am a champion.

This compilation is a very good one, great content and deliveries although the artwork didn’t do much in trying to compel me to listen to it, a better display would come in handy next time. Good job guys and God bless!
