One Of Their Best

This album is incredible from every angle. Never before have I found myself simply walking the block in the late night hours totally immersed in music from people that are so obviously connected with the Holy Spirit. From the music, to the vocals, the instrumentation and the lyrics, this album puts a smile on your face and evokes a desire to know God more. It its' purest form, Back Home is a worship album. "You Created" says "You've created nothing / That gives me more pleasure than You," which reminds us that nothing on this world can satisfy us like the love of God. "Walk With Me," (beautifully sung by Danielle Young), says "My cup overflows / You restore my soul" and highlights the promise that God can take our broken lives and make them new again. "The Emptiest Day" says "When you wrap your arms around me / I can walk away or face the emptiest day" retells the truth that with God, anything is possible. None of this is terribly profound, but they are simple reminders that we tend to forget. Sometimes we make God so complicated, we fail to revel in His simplicity. I'm betting that there are more fans of great music who have yet to pick up a Caedmon's Call album, just like myself. To those, I challenge you to pick up Back Home (since fans of Caedmon's will already love this album). I promise you will be encouraged, enlightened and this album will help break any chains that are holding you down.
