Reviewed by Trevor Kirk

A generously filled CD which is all self-penned, Bible-based and suitably God-centred, not surprisingly, as Alan is regularly involved in the worship at the Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship meetings in Wigan. The magnum opus (at nearly seven minutes) is the title track, inspired by Isaiah 40:28-31, the first few songs are lively, but the second half of the CD is pretty much all at the same tempo (ie, slow-medium) and all the songs suffer from familiarity, using well known words, phrases and bits of Scripture. The sleeve notes acknowledge the help of veteran rocker Norman Barratt; some of Norm's hot axe might not have come amiss to liven things up a little. As it is, it's a bit of a plod.
