I heard this playing in a store and Alone With You (#7) caught my ear. After listening to the first 6 songs of a demo copy (we got caught in the store close to closing time, so I couldn't get to the rest) I know this will be a worthy buy when I do get around to it! As I told my RibDonor on the way home, this is one of those CDs where, if you're listening while driving, you end up saying "Jesus Take the Wheel because I'm about to lift my hands to praise you!" :D

I bought this CD after hearing Freddy Rodriguez on TBN for about 3 minutes and I happened to like the song he sang that night. (1)The song was "we lift our hands" which is the first song list, it is a up beat fast tempo song. However I had no idea that it is one of the weakest song on this CD. The album gets better as you continue to listen.

(2) "Rejoice" is also a fast tempo song, this song has an Israel Houghton feel to it.
(3) "Lord you are amazing" is a light slower than the previous ones, this song declares how great God is. The music has a Latin feel to it the rhythmic drums makes you want to move your head.
(4) "No other name" picks up in tempo declaring there is no other name that heals or frees than the name of Jesus this song is a faith builder.
(5) "I will run" is a slow song that changes the feel of this project. This song states that 'I will run unto you oh God now you have my heart, where else can I go' this song makes you hungry for more of God.
(6) "Fallen" is slow as well this song is performed by 'Laurie Engquist' she has such a sweet voice. This song is telling the Lord that 'I have fallen in love with you'.
(7) "Alone with you" this song is performed by 'Hope G.' this is my favorite song on the CD. This song states that if 'Jesus calls or draws me to be alone with you, you were there for me when no one else could be found'.
(8) "It's in you" this is a fast tempo song. This song states that 'all I ever want is in Jesus, your so incredible'.
(9) "Wrap me in your arms" is a love song type of song. This song is beautiful (William McDowell sings it on 'As we worship') it tells how God wraps us in His arm and changes us to be like Him.
(10) "Wrap me in your arms (reprise)" this reprise is only 2:40 in length.
(11) "That's who you are" This song is performed by BJ Putnam. This song states that Jesus 'sees us for who we really are, you love me just as I am'. This song speaks to those moments when we have challenges and feel that we haven't done our best for God.
(12) "Lifter of my head" this song is up beat, 'it declares that Jesus is high and lifted up and the lifter of our head'.
(13) "Nothing compares" is fast pace a great song to jog to. This song says nothing compares to what Jesus has done on the cross. This song states 'all my past is gone, nothing compares to your love'. Hallelujah!
(14) "We are champions" this song is a nice way to end the CD by declaring that we are champions in Christ!

If you like Israel Houghton or Hillsong you will like this project.

THIS CD!...It has truly been a blessing to me. God led me to this CD at the RIGHT time. This man of God truly was led by the Holy Spirit in this entire project. Thank you Freddy for surrendering your life..I LOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS CD!!!!

If you like gospel music, this is a must have. Freddie Rodriguez is a gifted singer and musician. The music is beautiful.

Freddy Rodriguez has really demonstrated how to touch the heart of God through worship! This CD has really been a help for me!

I love this cd . The songs are great. They are very encouraging and uplifting daily.

This project will bring the worshiper out of you. He is an awesome worship leader and he knows how to lead people into the presence of the King. You can really sense the peace and presence of God upon this project. You will not be disappointed.

I first saw Freddy on TBN 9/9/09 WOW what an annointing. Any who is interested in true worship music must get this CD. I purchased and downloaded it the very next morning and I can't turn it off. If you like Isreal Houghton then you will love this CD. Great things are instore for this young man. Stay humble!

This is a great album, with a little bit of everything for everyone. Freddy leads you to the throne of worship, he leads you to a praise session. I like the version of "Wrap me in your arms" written by William McDowell, he did justice to the song.

One of the best albums of 2009 in my books.

This cd is awesome, no other words describe it better! Great mix of styles and you can feel the heart of God in this Album.
