Volume 10 is an improvement on previous volumes though the one-time reggae hitmaker-turned-preacher has an identical approach as with earlier albums. Large chunks of the Authorised Version of the Bible (John's Gospel, Luke's Gospel and Revelation being particularly referenced) are read reverentially intermixed with some extemporised comments. There are three very long tracks here, the best being "Bible Lesson Vol 2" which with the comment "I feel like singing" becomes a spontaneous song fragment "Jesus I Give Myself To You". Let me hear you say Amen!
