It seems
like only a couple of weeks ago that I
was reviewing another project by Deena
Ashley! Actually, it was only a
couple of weeks ago! Deena has
been a busy person lately recording a
couple of new projects. This
latest one is a continuation of the
excellence from the one from a few weeks
ago.
Deena is a
songwriter and the first song on the
project was written by her.
"Living In The Victory" is an upbeat
song and it reminds us that if we are
living with and for Christ, we are
living in the victory that is already
ours. It's a very good start to
this project. That song would be
considered a song of victory but the
all-time great song of victory is
"Victory In Jesus." Deena sings a
rousing version of that song next and I
loved it. Another of my favorite
hymns is "Nothing But The Blood Of
Jesus" and Deena's version of this song
is also simply outstanding.
Deena is
back with another original song next.
The title is "I Run To You" and the
message is one of hope as we are
reminded that we can only find peace
when we run to Christ. There was a
song that I remember singing when I was
growing up. I've not heard the
song in years but Deena sings "I Shall
Not Be Moved" and I very much enjoyed
hearing it again. "Rain" is the
next song on the project that was
written by Deena. This song is
prayer to God asking Him to rain His
Blessings on us.
"Love
Lifted Me" is another song that is
pretty common in hymn books. It's
always been one that I like because it
talks about the power of God's Love!
Deena's version of the song is very
uplifting and I enjoyed it a lot.
The final song written by Deena on the
project is next. "Where I'm Going"
does a great job of reminding us that
our ultimate destination on our earthly
journey is Heaven. Another
familiar song is next as Deena put her
vocal touch on "I'll Fly Away."
The version is a bit different from the
traditional one but I predict you will
really enjoy it! I know I did!
Deena is a
talented vocalist and songwriter.
I already knew that from her previous
projects. I enjoyed this project
because it mixed a lot of great old
hymns with some of Deena's great
original songs. I enjoyed them all
and I enjoy the clarity and energy in
which Deena sings the songs with. My
favorite songs from this project are
"Living In The Victory," "I Shall Not Be
Moved" and "Love Lifted Me." The
entire project is uplifting and
enjoyable and I recommend getting a copy
for yourself! I can't help but
wonder if I will get another project
from Deena next month!!! For more
