Almost there is not even close

By Nathan,
Mercyme grabbed everyone's attention with their hit single "I can only imagine", but one song doesn't make a good album, which is shown on their Debut CD almost there.
Mercyme's music tends to be praise and worship, but they could be considered light rock. "I worship you" and the singe "here I am" are more up-beat. "I can only imagine" is a good song that is simple, but has a very appealing style to it. Other than that most of the songs on Almost there are simple and repetitive, which is shown on "bless me indeed" and "cannot say enough".
The lyrics are only okay. The song "here I am" is not bad, but "I can only imagine" is not very deep. Everything else on the CD is shallow, and in some cases their songs are (house of god and bless me indeed) theologically wrong.
Almost there tails of as the second half of the album rolls along, leaving merecyme's super CD a lot to be desired.
