Album Review
Simple compositional finery, from start to finish. Beginning with the powerhouse, choir-backed number "Blessing and Honor," Harris pulls it down to tear-jerking moments in "I Want to Go," "All Along the Way" and "Were It Not For Grace." It's hard to pick one showstopper when an album plays as if it's a "Best of," but "When God Calls" fits the bill.
