Notes/Reviews

"This family-oriented 2008 collection presents a fine set of praise & worship songs by contemporary gospel artists. Donnie McClurkin (the gentle "Great Is Your Mercy"), Kirk Franklin (the moving "Why We Sing"), and Martha Munizzi (the passionate "Say the Name") are just a few of the renowned names on the 12-track compilation."
