High level production techniques make this inspiration collection an easy listener. Some sound like they are from out of the Vineyard with the soft strains of synth. The opening track, "In Majesty" is rather special, a praise song which lifts up the name of the Lord with enthusiastic musical and vocal backing. The title track is a pleasantly smooth declaration of the joy available to those who live in the miracle of His creation. With the exception of "Amazing Grace" the whole album has been highly polished and mixed at Goldmine Studios, Nashville. The exception is an interesting choral arrangement of 12 voices at they paint a somewhat abstract interpretation of the much loved song by Johns Newton and Rees. Robert Sterling's lyrics are touchingly rendered on "I Choose Jesus"."Not for miracles but for loving me/Not for Bethlehem but for Calvary/Not for a day but for eternity". Also having an impact are the words of Eric Champion "Heaven and Earth". "Living life day to day /sometimes we choose a lasting love/but only half way/so much time goes by/while we struggle on our own/ignoring you by our side."
