All Sons & Daughters' Leslie Jordan has a voice as delicate as a butterfly's wing and as she glides with tremulous tenderness through these songs of adoration and reflection it becomes clear again why ASAD have risen from the mass of other worship ministries to become CCM best sellers. The opener "You Will Remain" is the duo at their best, a deceptively simple song of faith with little more than a synth wash, a drum machine and Leslie's self-sung harmonies blending perfectly to create its atmosphere of wistful beauty. It's not the only gem here. "Tonight" is haunting as Leslie reflects how she is safe in the arms of her Lord while the country "King Of Glory (You Restore My Soul)", which together with "God With Us" gives David Leonard a rare chance to sing lead, also stay long with the listener. It was also an inspired decision to get the hugely talented Sandra McCracken guesting on "Almighty God". The collection of tracks from three EPs which made up All Sons & Daughters' debut album was marvellous. This is, if anything, better.
