I heard one of the songs when I was listening to the Contemporary Christian music channel on my TV. I had to have that song, and now I am so glad to have the whole CD. It is just awesome. He has a voice I can't get tired of. Awesome music to play during my "quiet time" in the evenings, while I work on my Bible study.
Is there an option for 10 stars? Apr 26, 2005
My favorite CD of all time. It's like listening to poetry - absolutely beautiful. You will not regret buying this CD!
Probably my favorite Christian CD Dec 29, 2004
Chris Rice's first CD is still my favorite, and they are ALL awesome, so that says something. He has a great, mellow, James Taylor-esque sound, plus some of the deepest and most honest lyrics in Christian music today. In trying to write songs myself and in listening to a lot of Christian music, I have found that it is difficult to write heartfelt Christian songs that are not cheesy...Chris Rice achieves this as well as anyone.
Rice never sugarcoats his faith, but addresses real issues like the frustration of messing up over and over again, feeling weak and helpless, and feeling burdened by pain and shame. Yet a loud note of grace rings throughout all of these struggles that he sings of.
My favorite songs on this album are "Deep Enough to Dream" (great guitar part; a hope-inspiring vision of heaven), "Welcome to Our World" (a beautiful Christmas song that reflects on the wonderful mystery of the incarnation...lines like "Tiny heart whose blood will save us"), "My Tree" (a song that infuenced me a lot as an often lovesick teenager...likens Christ's love for us to being in love as a young boy, yet he avoids cheapening Christ's love in the process), and "Hallelujahs" (which gives words and a melody to the often inexpressible feeling of being overwhelmed by God's majesty as expressed in His works on earth).
This CD gave me strength to get through my first year of college some years back, and I have used it as a gift to friends who are hurting many times. It also makes a good gift for non-Christians, since the message is expressed in such honest language, without being "in your face" or obtuse with the message. This is a fine, fine CD.
Amazing!! Mar 12, 2004
I found this Cd in a store when I was on vacation in Finland, and I first doubted to buy something from an artist I didn' know of. I took the chanche and never regretted after that!! This is one ot my top 10 cd's ever, and I recomend it to everyone. I thank God for finding this cd, for it was just that kind of music I loved - and searched for. Anyway, my favorite songs on the cd are "Deep enough to dream", "My Tree", and "Sams song" - but I love every song. Very good lyrics that gives you new revelations about god's love.
Recomended!
Nice Rice! Jan 1, 2004
In a world where every male solo Christian contemporary artist sounds like a clone of Michael W. Smith, Chris Rice breaks the mold, not so much in his sound (he actually kinda' sounds like Mr. Rocketown), but his songs on this effort are way better than Mike's have been since way back when he used to call his records "Projects." Peaceful, spiritual, meditative and reverent are how I would peg this cd, even with that one goofy song thrown in there. Chris is great at the piano and his voice is clear and full of worship. "Deep Enough To Dream" will be played on Christian radio stations just short of forever. "Hallelujah" and "Welcome To Our World" are both so sweet, melodic and touching that they are worth the price of admission all by themselves. This is pretty powerful stuff from an industry that tends to be very watered down and thinks good music means a sappy copy of the current secular trend (which is why I never go in for so called "Christian" music). As an aside from all the praise, once you have heard this (his best) work, you have pretty much heard it all as his later cds tend to sound pretty much the same. Stick to this first effort and you will love Chris Rice. Listen to two or three of his works in a row and you may be calling him just another Christian artist who sounds kinda' like Michael W. Smith. As an even further aside, he does have a cd not currently listed on this site called "The Living Room Sessions" (NOT the Christmas one) which is simply him playing traditional hymns with no lyrics on his piano in his living room. It is REALLY good. Track it down and be blessed!
