Southern Gospel Music got its start with male quartets and those who know me well know that I have a special place in my heart for male quartets!  It has been several years since I received music from the Skyline Boys but their most recent project arrived in my mailbox a few weeks ago and I was thrilled to receive it and listen to it!  The project is titled “Love Came Through” and it is an outstanding project from this talented quartet.

“It Makes Me Want To Go” is an upbeat song that is a great start to this project!  It reminds us of all of the great reasons that makes a Christian want to go to Heaven.  The title track of the project is next with “Love Came Through.”  This is a beautiful song reminding the listener that the Love of Christ will always come through!  Next on the project is a song titled “I’m A New Man” and this song is a terrific song that reminds us of the amazing change that God will make in you when He comes into your life!  I love the line that says “I’m a new man because of an old rugged cross.”

“I’m Not Saying Goodbye” is a song that will be a comfort to anyone who has lost a loved one.  It reminds us of that blessed promise that as Christians we may be apart for a while but we will all be together again for eternity!  The tempo picks up again with “It Won’t Be Long.”  This is a great quartet song that showcases the quartet quite well.  The message is also encouraging one stating that it will not be long before we are joining our loved ones in Heaven.  There are many classic songs in Southern Gospel Music and “He’s All I Need” is one of them!  Jodi does an outstanding job singing this song and I loved hearing it again.  “Back To The Altar” is a wonderfully crafted song reminding us that when we stray, we can go back to the altar where we gave our life to Christ and started our life new. 

Next on the project is “That’s Enough” and this song is a great reminder that there will come a day when Jesus calls us home.  “Sing It Brother, Sing It” is another up tempo song and the message is great!  It tells the listener that if you have Jesus in your heart, then get out there and sing it and tell others about Him.  The project ends with “Above The Clouds.”  This song is a wonderful song of encouragement that speaks of how great the view is above the clouds once God has answered your prayer!

As I said in the opening, it has been quite a while since I had a project from the Skyline Boys.  This group has a nice sound and has the ability to sing quartet music well!  The harmony on this project is very good and the project has ten strong songs and good production.  My favorite songs from this project are “Makes Me Wanna Go,” “He’s All I Need” and “It Won’t Be Long.”  I was thrilled to hear the Skyline Boys once again and I would encourage all of you out there to get a copy of this project and be blessed by the Skyline Boys!  For more information on the Skyline Boys, visit their website at www.theskylineboys.com.
