Decent Lite AOR CD with a few standout tracks, especially "Lift Him Up" , "Son Always Rises".And "Lord It's You" The ballads on this album (and there's a few of them) could have used a bit more "power" though. Far too light and average stuff IMO. 7/10. I hear their second CD "Cast a Light" is the better one... .

Great band of all his time,as good as GEDION'S ARMY)(and)(D.O.X)(Great Aor Rock,excellent christian aor of high quality musicianship,unfortunately production is only decent but acceptable anyway, About The(Cast A light Album is their best cd indeed because the debut is Ok but nothin'exceptional and their last 3 cd is almost decent and far from this one.Very Good Christian Lite/AOR with Hi-Tech/Westcoast moments too, da gusto comentar de estos albunes de los 80's como como este deve ser, este es un trabajo de muy buen nivel mayormente cortes AOR y Lite/AOR con algunos cruces con el Hi-Tech y unas baladas combinadas con el estilo Westcoast(3 ultimos cortes) Man Of Sorrow, Now I Believe, Could It Be Love los puntos altos para mi gusto pero en conjunto todos los temas forman un buen equipo(http://www.holymetalrob.com/)
