Everything Sad Is Coming Untrue- CD Review

This past Sunday night we had the privilege of attending a pre-cd release concert in Wisconsin for Centricity Recording Artist Jason Gray.  His new CD "Everything Sad is Coming Untrue" releases today nationwide, and my bottom line review for this album is... BUY IT!

Ispired by a passage from Lord of the Rings, where Sam asks Gandolf if "everything sad going to come untrue", Jason's title track is beautifully written, both times.  Thats right, there is a part I and a part II, and while both reflect a different season and mood, they are both right on.

Amy's favorite track, For the First Time Again, includes beautifully crafted phrases like "Sometimes I think I know too much, but even then its not enough.  Can you take me back so I can move ahead?  Take me deep inside the grace that forgets instead of down the well worn path of my regrets.  I'm older than I've ever been.  Can you take me back and make me new again?  Cause I need you now, as much as I did then."

Finally, my favorite track on the album is titled "Fade With Our Voices".  It is a an excellent wakeup for those of us, like myself, who need to check our motives and our actions to see if they are lining up with our speech.  It's words challenge us to "make our lives a melody that we proclaim when we live in Jesus' name."

But don't just take my word on it.  here is what NewReleaseTuesday.com had to say about this new project. 

Jason has an uncanny ability to absorb images, emotions and truths from a variety of sources: theology, literature, relationships, his own struggles, pop culture, poetry, etc., and to pull together those diverse strands into a unified whole. Over the years he has developed a razor sharp knack for saying deep things in a way that the rest of us can relate to.

Do yourself a favor and head over to http://JasonGrayMusic.com today and pick up this new release.  It will be a great add to your collection, and a blessing to your daily walk with God!
