On this gospel-themed collection, the artist who brought "new traditionalism" to Nashville goes all the way back to the Rock of Ages. Old-time religion meets old-time country on "Feet on the Rock," with other material ranging from the Judgement Day literalism of "Which Way Will You Choose" to the mystically metaphorical "See Myself in You" to a stripped-to-the-bone, album-closing rendition of "Amazing Grace." The loping "The Carpenter" (one of three songs cowritten by Travis) features guest vocals from Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, while "Doctor Jesus," with its mournful steel guitar, could pass for vintage George Jones. Though some of the lesser tracks are stronger on sermonizing than musical appeal, the melodic uplift of "Baptism" could highlight any Travis album. --Don McLeese

Summary: Randy's voice is tops! 2005-03-25
Comment: This was one of my first Randy Travis CDs, as I "discovered" him with my sister not to long ago. Another sister of mine bought this with "Rise and Shine", and I failed to find anything special in it because I highly doubted Randy's new found faith in our Lord. But after learning how sincere he was, I really listened to this album and found it a treasure. Although I agree that "Rise and Shine" and the new "Passing Through" are better albums musically, I gave this five stars simply because Randy's voice is the best in the world. Period. No one else can combine perfect pitch with jaw dropping passion like he can. And this CD is no exception.
"Baptism" is one of my favorites, but there are others I enjoy. One track that especially sticks out is "Amazing Grace." His rendition is the purest- just the guitar and Randy. Nothing better. I get choked up when I hear it. Many praise and worship versions have been rendered with gaudy music and opera style voices attempting to harness the passion of the hymn. But Randy sings it and means it in his sweet, simple cowboy fashion- and suddenly, time stops and one has to listen to his every word. If you have never felt the meaning of Amazing Grace before, you'll feel it with this album.
This album also includes some nice photos of Randy inside :)
