As you would expect from an artist with his calibre and the backing of a major label like Sparrow, the ninth full length studio album from Indiana-born worship artist Jeremy Camp is a slick affair. Kicking off with the dance-tinged single "Word Of Life", this is a collection of uplifting songs that point towards the difference God makes to one's personal life whilst showcasing the multi award-winning singer's obvious vocal chops. Camp's material and overall sound on this album don't really offer up anything fresh or too adventurous musically or lyrically but, such is the polished production and faultless delivery of songs like the title track and the slow burning "Tell The Whole World", this is nonetheless a quality affair that will no doubt please Camp fans. Interestingly, the closing track "Awake O Sleeper" - a refreshingly unrefined Southern rock stomper - sees Camp finally let loose and provides a tantalising glimpse into what might be if he were to take more of an artistic risk.
