Think of any of today's leading secular female R&B acts such as Brownstone, SWV, Eternal or En Vogue, and you'll get the picture of the kind of music produced by this American foursome. The difference is whilst they're just as competent vocally- lead and harmonies- Virtue's music, with titles like "Let I Be Redeemed", "Lord You're Worthy" and "I Must Tell Jesus", is unmistakably up front gospel. You can admire their beautiful voices on ballads like "Be With You", or shake your body to the funky and lyrically militant "Take It By Force". Lovers of contemporary gospel oughta make time to check out this album.

This song is so inspiring...My granddaughter is celebrating her ( quinceanera) her journey from child to young woman of God with a Christian worship service at our Church. One of her good friends will sing this worship song during the ceremony. Young woman of God presenting themselves as living testimonies of the love they have for God and the sacrafices and choices they are willing to make as young woman of God to worship our Lord.

I love this song it is such a blessing. I remember picking up that WOW CD and listening at the record store I told my then fiance that this is the song my bridesmaids needed to hear. This is the song I used in my ceremony to intoduce my maids, and maids of honor. It is a beautiful song and let's us know who God is. Thanks for this inspiring message.
