Originally from Jamaica and now resident in Maryland, this was Bobby's debut album released in 2003 but it's only just recently fallen through the letterbox at Cross Rhythms Towers. Here's a selection of songs that have plenty to say to the listener and what it lacks in musical or production sophistication it makes up for with lyrics that are designed to inspire. The message of the title track is powerful and has provided Simpson with the name for his ministry. Other highlights include the catchy "Glory N Honor" and "Covered By The Blood". The album is a bit samey and Simpson's voice is limited but right from the start he seems to know how to work well within his limitations to create reggae with a message.
