Marilyn Baker has, of course, been one of the mainstays of UK Christian music for decades. She is a talented pianist and vocalist and has not allowed the fact that she has been blind since childhood to get in the way of a successful singing career. This is a pleasing album packed with original material, performed by Marilyn and accompanied by some brilliant musicians. The songs "Unconditional Love" and "My Heart Is Filled (Greater Is He)" are two of the more upbeat numbers with sing-a-long choruses and catchy tunes. One of the standout tracks for me was "Lord, How I Long To See Your Face", the heartfelt lyrics really make this song but also the feeling conveyed in Marilyn's voice really sets this song apart. The traditional, easy listening style of this worship album with its gentle melodies with rousing choruses, may not appeal to more contemporary tastes but Marilyn executes this style beautifully.

Hi,
Im an Indian residing in Dubai.
I had this opportuntiy or should i call it a blessing to get a copy this album from marilyn baker.
i had ben searching for some very soft melodies and a friend of mine at the shop did suggest I try a copy of this.
well its awesome. the lyrics, the music and the vocals are just superb.
it reminded me of the bible words of jesus, where it is said that ,we need not shout in praise and pray to god in the presence of many but just be in closed doors and have a personal conversation with our father.
this album brings before me the presence of god.i am greatful to all those who are behind this beautiful album. i wish you could bring more albums such as these to this part of the world.
