“Can’t Live”

Pastor Genita Pugh of Laurel, Mississippi takes it easy and slow on “Can’t Live,” a restrained praise ballad during which the singer, who is also founder and pastor of Original Worship Ministry, shares how she cannot breathe or even live without Jesus.

Unlike her “Holy to the Lamb,” which is incendiary and traditional, this piece is calm and contemporary, introspective. It stands fine on its own, but I prefer her “Holy to the Lamb” for its rootsy, straight-to-the-gut simplicity.

    I love praise and worship, this song is so correct for the believer, because I can’t live or have my being without God the Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit in my life as well. God bless you women of God.
