Always an optimist I hoped for an album that might just touch on to the professionalism of the secular market.  But disappointment came all too quickly. The first track, "Love Is", has potential, although I fear its catchy tune and repetitive lyrics resemble too much the disastrous Eurovision entries we are hounded with each year. The title track is better, with simple, truthful lyrics.  But the weak arrangement makes it again a retrograde step for Christian music.  For me, the safety net is only cast with "Frontline" the most punchy track on the album. To describe this as middle of the road is perhaps unfair to that particular sector of music, however I feel that the weakness of song and arrangement demands such a label. To its credit, my wife found it acceptable, but then again, she's got every Cliff Richard song inscribed on her lips.  Still, it's inoffensive pop gospel that the undemanding might enjoy.
