THROUGH THE RAIN - CD Review -
WOW! What an album!! Wayburn Dean and team have done it again! THROUGH THE RAIN
offers a stirring variety of inspirational contemporary Christian
music, offering hope and encouragement for us all, as we struggle with
our evolving faith journey; with our efforts to serve Him in love, and
with our resolve to trust and depend on the Lord during times of
adventure and trials, that are part of the experience of living in this
world.
This collection of songs offer a wonderful combination of inspirational
vocals, lyrical messages, and an upbeat variety of a blend of genres,
creating some memorable melodies, rhythms, and vocals, that come
together to present the lyrical messages which so inspire the listener,
as they inspired this reviewer.
Wayburn
Dean is a Christian music artist who is not only gifted with a rich,
well-trained voice, to present songs in such a way as to both encourage
belief in Jesus (DO YOU BELIEVE?), service to the Lord ( WHAT WILL BE
YOUR LEGACY?) and gratitude (CROWN HIM) to the Lord, while entertaining
the listener, but also has the ability to vocally lift the listener up
from any dour or discouraging mood one is suffering from, and into the
presence of Lord (I SURRENDER ALL * FIRST LOVE). Wayburn
Dean sings from his heart, expressing his faith in the Lord (THROUGH
THE RAIN), giving testimony to how great our Lord is, a source of
strength (MORE THAN ENOUGH) and encouragement (I NEED A SAVIOR), always
dependable and faithful to his children.
Let's talk about the lyrical messages that Wayburn
delivers so well, that encourage our walk with the Lord on several
levels; during good times and times of adventure and trials, and
faith-building experiences that ultimately can grow our relationship
with Him. Wayburn Dean and friends have it covered!
The lyrical themes of these songs offer the listener:
SONGS OF FAITH AND LOVE FOR THE LORD - Our relationship begins with the
Lord when we recognize our need for a Savior, believing who He is, and
showing gratitude to Him for his love, mercy and faithfulness.
Faith testimony and Love letters to Jesus
I SURRENDER ALL - "Lord, I give myself to thee. I will ever love and trust Him"
CROWN HIM - "He is Jesus and He's Lord of everything. How can they know unless we tell them."
FIRST LOVE - "I will always remember when I gave my life to You. The
joy that filled me has kept my heart anew."
DEPENDING ON AND TRUSTING THE LORD: (Because of who He is. Stepping out in faith.)
A
CHANGE IS COMING - The Lord can be depended upon to change our hearts
to help us do what we are called to do. "I haven't done what I said I
would do / But I feel my heart giving in to you//"... "There's a Change
coming over me."
THROUGH THE RAIN - "When we call, He comes: When the strong winds blow, Ya just gotta walk in faith."
MORE THAN ENOUGH - "God Almighty, He declares, My love is more than enough for you."
I NEED A SAVIOR - "Jesus is our Savior whose love will never leave us."
WALKING WITH THE LORD: Another way we grow spiritually in Jesus - Showing God's love.
DO
YOU BELIEVE? - Begins with believing in who Jesus is, and acting
accordingly - "His word is true, He is Lord, He is God, He is Able."
WHAT WILL BE YOUR LEGACY? -"Getting house in order, with the love of God in mind"
THE LEAST OF THESE -"Share your blessings with the poor, you'll receive so much more."
Another outstanding quality of these songs is the variety of melodies
and rhythms, that fit perfectly for each mood and theme of the songs
performed. Compositions offer a great variety of music, from stirring
prayer hymns to anthems of encouragement to praise and worship songs,
with an assortment of different rhythms to keep the music interesting
and irresistible.
Another plus is that the sound mixing on this album is well done,
allowing the listener to enjoy not only the wonderful vocals, but also
the solid yet delicate ensemble work, that make good use of the piano,
acoustic guitar, keys, horns, and electric guitars and drums / synths in more lively offerings found on this CD.
Acoustic driven, with a light, happy beat which lightens the heart:
(THROUGH THE RAIN - THE LEAST OF THESE; (ballad))
Piano-based ANTHEM:(WHAT WILL BE YOUR LEGACY?) * Poignant HYMNS (I SURRENDER ALL * FIRST LOVE)
Piano and guitar ANTHEMS with a catchy rhythm: (I NEED A SAVIOR * CROWN HIM * MORE THAN ENOUGH)
Soft rock(keys, trumpets, electric guitar) - that cooks along with a spring:(A CHANGE IS COMING)
Urban Gospel / funk& soul in ballad form that cooks mightily along with an edgy spirit:(DO YOU BELIEVE?)
