Great CD and I listen to it in my car all the time. Very uplifting gospel and I would recommend this CD to anyone who loves contemporary gospel music.

The cd is great! Brought one for my grandmother for christmas and had to get one for myself.

Where is "I Trust In God"? "Glorious Day"? The original "Stand"? Is "Speak To My Heart" (not the version on the "Donnie McClurkin" album) on here? These songs speak to who Donnie McClurkin is as an artist to me, and the lack of these songs on a very best album is criminal. I won't buy this album because I have all the albums that the tracks are on, but it's amazing to me how much of the "good stuff"albums like this miss...

This DVD just keeps me singing along while it plays, and if I had the chance to dance, I would do that too, but can't do that while I'm driving. But really, this is a great piece of Donnie's work. Get one and you'll like it right off.

Composed of some new and other familiar tunes, this CD provided hours of listening pleasure!! Having learned the lyrics to most of the songs, I can now sing along!!

How fortunate I was to have found Rev. Donnie McClurkin at a price I can afford. My commutes to and from work are spiritually soothing.

Donnie McClurkin is Wild/Tame, Gentle/Strong, Tender/Fierce, Humble/Defiant, Soft/Loud, Loving, and More... He is a unique genius of gospel worship music. In the sincerity and integrity of his performances, he seems always to give himself about 200%.

If you like the way Donnie does, and if you are needing a good dose of Donnie's worship, this album gathers picks of 12 song performances that are deemed to be his very best.

Half of these songs were performed live in London. (On "Who Would Have Thought," Pastor Wynans chips in singing a few lines in "Brit speak," which pleases the crowd.)

The songs take the listener through gamuts of intense emotion so there's a large measure of "stress," albeit good stress, in listening to them. I find it's best for me to lie down with my ear-phones on and be very still and relaxed while I allow the music to permeate my mind and emotions. All the songs speak meaningfully, but, of all of them, I think I have a greater spiritual need for "I'll Trust You, Lord," so I'm resolving to make it a frequent meditation session.

"Only You Are Holy" is tender and worshipful with Donnie occasionally adoring the Lord in tongues.
"Didn't You Know" is as if spoken by the Lord about His Devotion to "you."
I've never heard anything quite like "Special Gift," and so I did find it special.

I won't comment on every song, will just summarize by saying I like all the songs, only one or two of them a little less so.

The band and the feminine chorus that accompany Donnie are really outstanding, just fantastic. They deserve rich praise.

If you are emotional and you use this CD for worship, you might very well find yourself on your knees, reduced to tears of wild-tender love and joy in the Lord. In any case, I don't see how anybody could listen to this album without being very moved. I think the impact of it grows with repeated listening. It was on the second go-round that I realized how very much I enjoyed some of the songs and how great the artistry was.

I am really enjoying this CD. I received it in a short time after I placed the order. Everything is great and I would recommend using Amazon to anyone.
