“I Love the Lord”
Phillip Carter & SOV
From Songs from the Storm (2009)
www.sovministries.com
On “I Love the Lord,” Phillip Carter & his fifteen-member ensemble SOV from Maryland combine “Amazing Grace” with a couple of standard Doc Watts congregational songs. Instead of lining them out like wizened Baptist deacons, however, they deliver them with handclapping “choirtet” fervor and enthusiastic call-and-response. For their part, the musicians – especially the bassist and drummer – provide the classic quartet-style backbeat.
The single comes from the group’s fifth CD, Songs from the Storm, a compilation of praise and worship and traditional gospel. SOV stands for Sounds of Victory.
