This 1973 album was the followup to 'Come To The Waters' and continues the close Carpenters' style harmonies, which was present throughout the Jesus music group's musical journey in the 1970s. There are great moments here such as "Two Lives, One Moment" which is a great reflection on change in a life while things around you continue as usual, and the rather beautiful "You're A Gift" exploring marriage relationships. "The Crucifixion" containing narration by Chuck Smith, however, does sound dated in both its harmony and musical arrangements. Sadly, the transfer quality is patchy, especially when listening with quality headphones where there is evidence of crackles and distortion. The last track, "Can I Show You" sounds like the original recording has worn badly which is distracting. That aside, this is a historic snapshot of a simpler time in Christian music songwriting.
