Reviewed by Alan Chesters In the sleevenotes, the president of Integrity says that they "view life on earth, for those who love Jesus, as choir practice for heaven." The choir on this album, from Prestonwood Baptist Church, Dallas, is 400 strong and accompanied by a 60-piece orchestra. Most of the songs are newly written by worship leader Geron Davis and soloists include Randy Philips of Phillips, Craig & Dean. Jesus is central, from the opening "Jesus, You Are Welcome" through the 15 live tracks lasting 66 minutes. Geron not only links songs but during "We Sing Worthy" shares a family story. Personally, I prefer something less traditional that the general feel of this album but the production, with its additional studio recordings, is, as you would expect from the personnel involved, first class. My own favourite track is the title track, sung by Geron's wife, Becky.

I like the above writer's comments, even though they fall somewhat short of what should be written. This has got to be one of the best worship cds for the
90's era; by mid June 1999 it is released for sale. I have been listening to the music of Geron & Becky Davis since the 80's; the world has been blessed for a good 3 decades. Geron & Becky's vocals are so rich in quality and are touched with a bit of Heaven as they are heard in song. Becky sings the title song so wonderful as only she could, her best for GOD : She also sings lead on "KING of Kings, LORD of Lords". Geron sings lead on "When Anyone Looks at Me", another song that high lights this cd. Randy Phillips is a guest on this wonderful worship recording: he sings lead for his penned "Holy is the LAMB"; Geron has additional words for the song. I really enjoyed seeing Randy on gospel station programs as worship leader: and when he sang with his top trio ccm group
Phillips, Craig & Dean. Geron is a top notch song-
writer; so many artists have recorded his GOD-sent
songs: who could ever forget "Gentle Hands" by Truth, and the unforgettable "Holy Ground".
GOD Bless Geron & Becky................-Don
