"Heaven Hear My Heart" – Trin-i-tee 5:7

“Heaven Hear My Heart”
Trin-i-tee 5:7
From the CD, Angel and Chanelle (Available May 31, 2011)
The second single from Trin-i-tee 5:7’s upcoming CD is out.  “Heaven Hear My Heart,” though heavy on strings and percussion and light on lyrical depth, has the urban flavor that typifies the Trin-i-tee 5:7 sound. 
 
The CD, Angel and Chanelle, has a street date of May 31.  The CD’s first single, “Over and Over,” written by PJ Morton, debuted at #24 on Billboard’s Hot Gospel Song chart.

Sizzlin' This Week (4/4/11) – "In His Name"

“In His Name”
John K. Thorpe
From the CD, In His Name (2007)
Available at Apple Music

Simple musical accompaniment and the opening lyric, “Let us take this bread together in His name,” introduce this worshipful Communion selection.  By the time John Thorpe arrives at the second verse, “Lord, they drove nails in Your hands; they drove a nail in Your feet, but Lord you knew that wasn’t enough to save me,” it is apparent that this is a beautifully written song of reflection and gratitude fitting for the Easter season too.
 
Thorpe provokes us to remembrance of the sacrifices of Jesus and the power of His name.  By the song’s end, the listener’s heart is filled with thanksgiving and the atmosphere is filled with worship.
 

Sizzlin’ This Week is the GMF editor’s gospel music pick of the week from her personal playlist.  Every style. Every era.
