“Waging War”
CeCe Winans
From the CD Thy Kingdom Come
Pure Springs Gospel 2008

Battle drums thump and strings swirl as if from the soundtrack of an epic film, providing an appropriately dramatic backdrop to CeCe Winans’ “Waging War,” the first single drawn from her new CD, Thy Kingdom Come.
Winans sings the enemy off her territory with deliberation while the choir charges ahead like a musical battalion. All in all, the five-minute track offers up great imagery and metaphor, and demonstrates how the experimentation of COGIC-raised artists continues to lead gospel music into new directions.
