I’m a member of the Family Christian Bloggers and they
provided me with a free copy of Jason Crabb: “Through The Fire” for this
review.
Gospel singer, Jason Crabb is back with a brand new album.
“Through The Fire” that features some of his biggest hits. He was a member of the
Crabb Family before they retired. He won a Grammy award in 2010 for his
self-entitled album for Best Southern/Country/Bluegrass Gospel album. His album
was also nominated for a Dove Award.
One of my favorite songs on the album is entitled,
“Somebody Like Me” because this one describes a story of a drunk man entering
the church and he is needing help and love. The church isn’t moving off their
pew to reach out to him and show him the love of Christ. Jason asked the
important question who will be that somebody. He performs this song as anthem
to believers to be that somebody. I liked how this song had such a powerful
message that Christians need to reminded of daily. We don’t have to be afraid
to step out and be a friend to someone who is in need of a true friend. I liked
how the choir in the background chorus gave this song a Heavenly sound to the
track. Another track, I also liked was the hymns medley (The Everlasting
Arms/The Meeting in the Air/ I’ll Fly Away) Live because this one is a true
Gospel track and it reminded me of the church I grew up in and we would sing
these songs to glorify God and to remind us of the Heaven that awakes us. Another
favorite is the title track, “Through the Fire” because this one is meant to
encourage believers to hold on to Jesus when life circumstances attempt to take
us under and we must always remember that God will take us through the fiery
storms we encounter. I also liked the track, “Love Is Stronger” because this
one describes how when we go through a difficult trial, it’s critical to reminisce
that love is stronger and it will bring us through. My favorite song one the
album would be, “Give”. I have heard the song before sung by country artist,
LeAnn Rimes. I liked Jason’s version a little more because it has more of a
beat and the tempo is increased. This one reminds us in order to get love we
must give it and if we want to be forgiven, we must also forgive the people who
have hurt us.
The whole album is filled with uplifting songs that will
inspire and resonate with believers and nonbelievers and make an impact on
their lives. This is the very first album I have listened to by Jason Crabb and
I will definitely be checking out his other albums. I am now a fan! I liked how
the album had some upbeat tempo songs as well as soulful slower songs. I also
liked how it had some live versions of some of the songs to enhance the album. Jason
Crabb has amazing vocal capabilities and you can tell he means every word he is
singing. If you’re looking for a new gospel/country album, then check this one
out!
