The album leaps in to action with the dynamic "I believe", a statement of basic Christian belief. Over the next 40 mins or so you are treated to the best in acoustic guitar during "The Robe" and "Carolyn" along with the intro to "Martin Luther" which then rapidly turns into a brilliantly quirky rock'n'roll riff that HAS to be listened to at full volume! The lyrics are full of searching thought which is no where better shown than in the song "John" where Wes sings of the pain of losing someone close to you. There is no doubt that Wes King is both a dynamic entertainer and a man with a message.

This is an unusual CD. The title track is reason enough to buy it. I love the guitar on songs such as "Carolyn" and especially the intro to "Martin Luther." What makes this CD unusual is the combination of excellent musicianship with the variety of issues dealt with. Mr. King deals with all the issues admirably. He demonstrates a true grasp of what it means to follow God. I recommend this CD.

The first album by this artist and it is a good one. It starts off with "I Believe" which is a good praise song. The title track is also good. My favorite track is "Martin Luther." It is such an inspirational song. I have two other CD's by Wes King, but this is my favorite of the bunch. I listen to it quite frequently.

As far as christian music goes I was very dissatisfied with this CD. I actually bought it for song #1 only and was hoping that they rest of the CD was going to be good. Well, at least some of the songs. I was very dissappointed. Not very much "glorifing God". The songs were more like a secular song that could swing the christian way if you choose to apply the vocals that way (or visa versa).
