Today on New Music Monday we are taking a listen to the brand new CD from the McKameys called, "Something More". The CD features 12 brand new songs from one of Southern Gospel Music's most beloved groups.
The CD showcases the McKameys at their best. The song selection and the delivery are what you would expect from the McKameys - no surprises, just classic McKameys.
One of my favorite songs on the "Something More" CD is entitled, "I Believe". This wonderful Southern Gospel song was written by Sandy Blythe and is based on Mark 9:24. The lyrics begin, "He cried, Lord I believe but help mine unbelief and by Your mighty hand a miracle he then received. Like that story long ago, I'm calling out to you, and humbly I confess that my faith has grown weary too."
We have all reached this point at some time in our walk with Christ. A point where the enemy of our souls whispers in our ears and our faith grows week. The chorus of the song brings hope. "I believe, but Lord help thou my unbelief, it's sweet to trust you Lord, but I have never walked this road before. So, hold my trembling hand, for I'm trying hard to understand, overlook the doubt in me, for I really do believe". The sincere singing style of the McKameys really brings this song home. The McKameys open their hearts and share with you the truth that God has given them. It's a great song.
A second song on the McKamey's New CD, "Something More" that stuck with me after the first listen was a song called, "Between Twelve and Thirty-Three". This song, written by Rusty Golden, Jerry Salley, and Jim McBride. This song is based on Luke 2:3-7 and John 19: 16-30. It is a simple song that speaks of the life of Christ that will stick with you.
The McKameys are one of Southern Gospel Music's most beloved groups. I hope that you enjoy the CD, "Something More" on New Music Monday. You will be able to read more about this CD and an interview with Peg McKamey at www.southern-gospel-music-lyrics.com
