Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers have long been among my top 3 favorite artists/groups. If you are a already a fan, you will find the medley of Tri-City Singer's old songs a true delight, and you will be brought to your feet with the newer selections on this project. If you are new to Tri-City Singers, you simply must have their prior CDs to add to you collection to fully comprehend the beauty of this project, especially their "Bible Stories" CD.

I had tears in my eyes listening to this project. You see the Tri-City Singers' songs have formed sort of a soundtrack for my Christian walk. From my crawl out of the world to my very first "toddler" steps as a babe in Christ to my "wonder years" of faith challenges and realizing God always honors his promises to now, I have carried songs by the Tri-City Singers in my heart every step of the way. Many of their songs remind me of the faithfulness of God during specific periods in my life, similar to how the Old Testament saints used to build monuments at certain spots where God did something significant in their lives. Therefore, by the end of the Act II disc, I was both exhilerated and sad. Exhilirated because the best is truly yet to come. However, I am sad to seen the end of such an outstanding, anointed group.

This has got to be the best album of Donald Lawrence in his outstanding career. First of all, the new songs are almost better than the old ones!!! He has truely outdid himself on this one. I absolutely love the BLESSING of ABRAHAM!! Thats my JAM!!!
He knew he wrote that that song for me!!! I will go get my inheritance!! HAAAAAYYY!!!!!! See, thats a sermon right there!! HALLELUJAH!! Praise yo' name JESUS!!!!! See I'm listening to it as i'm typing, so ya'll got to excuse me!!!!! The old songs are simply impecable! They make you wanna, not only get yo' inheritance, but also his old CDs! I believe he's going to be EXTREMELY blessed by this project and you will 2 if you buy this awesome, anointed, project! (Remember, no BOOTLEG COPIES!!!)

This CD/DVD is an awesome culmination of the Tri-City Singers under Donald Lawrence's annointed leadership. Donald and Tri-City have provided some of the most invaluable inspiration to urban/contemporary gospel music that I've ever witnessed. Surely, there will be many more solo projects that come about as a result of this awesome final reunion. I have watched the DVD countless times and listen to the CD in consistent rotation. This and Part II are an absolute MUST HAVE for all D. Lawrence/Tri-City fans! D., you made me proud!

My My My this is a fantastic work from Donald, and Tri-City. Donald did a wonderful job with this project, and though I am sad to see the end of such a mighty era, I find joy in knowing that they went out ministering and blessing. The package as a whole is awesome. This is a must have, not only if you are a fan of Donald and Tri-City, but if you are a fan of Gospel in general. This CD is a fine introduction of some of the best songs of this year. I honestly cannot pick a favorite song, as this is a CD that I can listen to all the way through without skipping a track. I never heard Donald minister in such a mighty way, but man him and the choir really put their all into this project. As I hear this CD I am currently stationed in Iraq, and this CD reminds me of who I am, and I thank God that he allowed this CD to bless me. I am truly an heir, and as I go to claim the blessings of Abraham, I will watch my Giants fall. If you get the chance to watch the DVD I promise you will feel like you are in the midst of a church service, it is a great presence of the Lord. Be Blessed.

I ordered my from Amazon and have yet to receive it. But listening to the samples have reminded me of what I experienced back on November 6, 2005. I was fortunate enough to attend the concert with my girlfriend and believe me, a concert it was. Possibly the best I have ever be to, and I have been to a lot.

The choir is so polished vocally and the musicians are all right in the pocket. I have started to get tired of "The Blessings of Abraham" since I work in a Christian Bookstore that plays it all the time, but I really need the message of that song along with "Heir" and "Giants".

I don't know if you will be able to get the same effect through the DVDs that I got in person. The A+ of gospel acts will bless you, not to mention the greats in the audience (Ted Wynn from Ted and Sheri, Byron Cage, Isaac Carree from Men of Standard, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, the list goes on.)

We were on our feet the whole time, not because it was a recording, but because the presence of the Lord was definitely there.

I could go on and on and on, but it's hard to point out bright spots among the new tracks because they are all so good. The three already mentioned are superb,along with "These Nails", "Encourage Yourself" with Sheri from Ted and Sheri, "God Is", and "Matthew 28". You will love all of the D'Lawrence hits. Gospel music, choir music at it's best.

Excellent CD the DVD is an extra special bonus. Very uplifting.
If you purchase Finale Act I, you have to have Finale Act II.
highly recommend it.

This cd is perfect. I love it. I can't stop listening to it. I bought ACT 1 Yesterday and as soon as I got home me and my mom watch the DVD and we love it. This is awesome. The cd opens with the radio single and my favorite song "The Blessing of Abraham". I love listening to this song. Then we got the worship song "You are an Heir" this song ministers to me everytime.

"Giants" now this is the best song on the cd. I love it...... Giants... they got to come down.....when you shout, just shout they got to come donw. mmmmmmmmh love the lyrics. After that song I would shout too and that is what they do. "Praise break" I dont need to say anymore. "God" I love it when Erica sings I love her voice. "These Nails" is a great song. The Lead vocals really lets the Lord use her.

The Meldy. Some of them I have never heard like "Personal Friend of mine" "Cast your cares" oh my God Lejune is at her best on this song. "I walk with the King" and "O'peter" this makes me want to go buy their others cd.

"When Sunday comes" is just like the original it is good. This cd is off the chain. Donald Lawrence is one of the best in Gospel. I love it. This cd is the best.

The DVD is just as good as the cd. I love to listen to the cd and then go and watch the DVD. Donald did an excellent job. They really put in all that they got on this project and as a result of it..........it's great.

I am almost at a loss for words. What a fantastic project. I have always been a fan of the projects of Donald Lawrence but this Finale is unequivocally the best. I purchased Act one and two yesterday and watched the first dvd last night. These people had me dancing in my room on "Giants". The quality of the dvd is unsurpassed and the sound....oh my goodness. All I can say is if you are a Donald Lawrence, Tri-City,or a fan of both, please get this final project, you will watch it for years to come.

This CD (Finale Act One & Act Two) is fantastic. I had to leave work to go pick it up because several people in my office had downloaded it from iTunes this morning before work. I heard three of the tracks, and just decided to take an early lunch.....a good decision. This CD is a blessing.

WHAT MORE CAN I SAY? BOTH ACT 1 & ACT 2 ARE A TESTAMENT TO WHAT GOD HAS DONE FOR & THROUGH A "POWERHOUSE" ENSEMBLE. DONALD LAWRENCE DEFINITELY MADE SURE THAT TRI-CITY WOULD GO OUT WITH A BANG, ESP. WITH "THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM", "YOU ARE AN HEIR", & "GIANTS". I WAS TOUCHED BY DEWAYNE WOODS' TESTIMONY IN THE "GOD IS" INTRO; IT SUSTAINS THE FACT THAT GOD CAN EXCEL THE CARNAL MINDEDNESS OF SOME PEOPLE (& THAT DOCTORS CAN NOT MAKE THE FINAL DIAGNOSIS). I AM EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH THE WORK OF TRI-CITY & THE INGENUITY OF DONALD LAWRENCE. I WILL MISS THE CHOIR, BUT I WILL FOREVER TREASURE THE POWERFUL SONGS OF THEIR ERA.
