5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant..& The End of an Era, May 5, 2009

This is the last album with Peter at the helm (at least vocally) and I must say it is one of their best. I've been a Newsboys fan since Not Ashamed way back in '92, and I just never wanted to bring myself to the fact that one day it would have to end. No, the Newsboys aren't over, but now that Michael Tait is taking over as lead singer, it feels like its over. To me Peter IS the Newsboys. Anyway as for this record its all Peter and its wonderful. The continued collaboration with Steve Taylor shines through again with great lyrics and the production value has never been better. In all a great album that does not disappoint.

With their un-mistakable style and flair, the Newsboys once again deliver a worship tune that hits the mark squarely in the middle.

The title track, In The Hands Of God, from the first verse, puts into perspective the fact that what we cannot do this on our own. 2 Peter 3-11 (MSG) says it best: 'Since everything here today might well be gone tomorrow, do you see how essential it is to live a holy life? Daily expect the Day of God, eager for its arrival. The galaxies will burn up and the elements melt down that day--but we'll hardly notice. We'll be looking the other way, ready for the promised new heavens and the promised new earth, all landscaped with righteousness.'

There is no better place to put our hope, trust and faith than in the Hands of God. 'Hands that are mighty to deliver, giving us freedom'! 'O you certainly are amazing God and I thank you!!!

Yes, In the Hands of God cd is a good way for long time member lead vocals Pete Furler to end his duties with Newsboys. Michael Tait takes over on tour and as vocalist, while Pete will still remain and write and help out, but not tour.
The cd is excellent, Newsboys always has a good beat, my favorite trac is The Way We Roll.
Wish Pete, and the Newboys the best of luck, and continued success.
