Originally released in 1987, this was Debby Boone's final contemporary Christian music (CCM) album comprised of all new material. (It was followed in 1988 by "Reflections," a best-of compilation, and in 1989 by "Be Thou My Vision," a collection of hymns.) Memorable songs from this disc include the title track, "Be Ye Glad," "To Every Generation," and "Sincerely Yours," which was written by Amy Grant's ex, Gary Chapman. It's a shame Debby is no longer involved in the Christian music industry. She, like Amy Grant and Sandi Patty, was one of the leading female pioneers of the genre in the late 70s and throughout the 80s. I hope one day she returns.

I dig rock and roll, Jesus Christ, and Debby Boone! It's not quite rock and roll, but it rocks! Happy, light, fun CCM. Good stuff!

I had the cassette way back when it first came out and wanted to upgrade to the cd. Please note that the cd is not remastered. It does not play at the same volume as newer cd's. If you only listen to this cd then turn the volume up. But if you play it with a collection of other new cd's then you will have to adjust the volume between cd's. 3 stars due to volume/mastering.

However, this album is excellent and Debby's voice is clear and on target. The songs truly minister to the soul. If it weren't for the volume/mastering then I would give it 5 stars!

Her best album! Great inspirational Christian music! Very moving. Every song is awesome. A must have.
