I was cleaning the house the first time I put this CD into the player. Of course, I was blasting the volume because I was alone. When my husband came home, he was smiling, and went over and restarted the CD from the beginning again. Oh, and did I mention he is not saved yet? Even he liked the bluesy feel of it. Thank you for making this CD

I like the old hymns and wanted to find a CD with them on it. what I got with Bart Millard's CD was a mix of the old with a new twist. I was surprised at how much I liked the spin Bart put on the classic Hymns. this is a great CD and I would highly recommend it.

Heard this CD in a hair salon. Recognized the excellent voice of Bart Millard from the Mercy Me group. I was put off for a minute because he was singing hymns and I had to open my mind to his rendition of the "old sacreds". By the end of the CD I realized I loved every cut. His voice singing the comforting words I have heard my whole life and the music was incredibly relaxing and created a spiritual awakening. I love this CD and think you will too.

LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!!
My fiance and I are both lovers of country music, but it's really hard to find anything that has that same feel with Christian lyrics. I also enjoy the old hymns, especially now that I'm old enough to appreciate the lyrics!!!
Anyway, I hope the country thing doesn't turn anyone away. Bart Millard has a great voice, and what he's done with the arrangement of these hymns is not to be missed.
Track 2--MawMaw's Song--is wonderfully sweet!!! I hope we hear it on the radio soon.
Great work!
