Smooth, well produced garage, New York style. Live musicians blend with programmed drums and bass. Arnold's vocals are well delivered and ooze with gospel influences: the lyrics celebrate God's love for us! There are two mixes by Jazz-n-Groove on side one: the first one with funky guitar riffs, the second bringing the electric piano to more prominence. Both are laid back yet full of energy. On side two Benji Candelario brings more of a minimalist house feel to the tune. The vocals are thankfully left intact for the "Club Mix", mingling with a nice strings line half way through. Lastly, the "Dub" brings to prominence a few choice vocal phrases, for example: "I thank you Father" and "I never underestimate what you have done"! Worship him on the dance floor: rarely do you find four excellent mixes such as these on one platter.
