Steve Givens is an American journalist (occasionally contributing to this mag) currently living in the UK who also is an engaging singer/songwriter in the Michael Card mould of devotional songsmiths. All the proceeds from sales of this album go to the London Run, a Christian initiative feeding the homeless in Britain's capital, and with such a sterling aim it would be churlish to criticise any deficiencies in recording budget or lack of production values on the 10 acoustic-based songs presented here. Best tracks from singer/guitarist Steve are the lilting "Love Never Fails" (originally released on a 1993 album by the group Spare Parts) and "A Life Between Walls". Helping out on lead vocals on "Psalm 103" and "Healing Prayer" is Chris Besler. Send a cheque in support of a worthy cause and get some engaging worshipful music in the process.
