“God”
Gail Holmes
From the Habakkuk Music CD I Receive Your Love (2011)

Written by the incomparable Donald Lawrence, “God” receives an effective reading by psalmist Gail Holmes (“Whatever It Is”).
A songwriter herself, Holmes flexes her lilting-to-muscular soprano to lift this ballad of anthemic praise into a thing of beauty. Her voice soars over the background vocalists who support the singer with tight, balanced harmonies.
“God” ranks as among Lawrence’s and Holmes’ finest work.
