Alive Again

Here's an artist that surprised me after I listened to his music one day on a radio. His songs grabbed so much that I decided to buy his album. Here's what I call inspired Christ-centered songwriting with very nice and professional arrangements. My favorite tracks are "Love comes down" and the powerful life-breathing "Christ is risen". But all the songs on this album are very nice. And that's what makes this album very personal if you wanna know who Matt Maher is and why he sings what he sings. What was surprising to me is the fact that his songs sound so evangelical and Bible-centered that I would've never guessed he was a roman catholic! I do hope to listen to other Catholic artists with same Christ-centered music and faithfulness to the biblical truths. I higly recommend this album to everyone. Why 4 and not 5 stars? Because perfection doesn't abide this world ;-)

I knew of Matt Maher as an artist only some due to the song "Christ is Risen" and then "I Need You". The latter became a song I would listen to over and over again during some painful times. Then, as life circumstances took me to a place where I spent many, many hours seeking the Lord through prayer, worship and quiet time I ended up finding this album and have listened to, and been ministered by, the songs on it in so many ways and so many times.

I can't say enough good things about this album. It starts off great with "Alive Again" and finishes sweet with "The Garden." Everything in between is great to listen to. I do skip some songs every now and then if I'm not in the "mood" for them, but for the most part I love to listen to this all the way through. My favorite song is "Christ is Risen." It's a great album, I have bought several for my family and friends, and will continue to do so!

I originally listened to this CD way back when I heard "Christ is Risen" for the first time. To my surprise, I ended up loving the whole CD, and every song has a good message behind it. I can't get enough of "You Were on the Cross" as it just has a great message that God's proclamation of His love is always there for us to see on the Cross. Matt Maher has become a top line Christian artist for me after this.

Average

This is my first experience with Matt Maher, and all I can say is that this man has God's anointing on his music. My personal favorites are "Rememberance" and of course. "Christ Is Risen". If you are looking for Christian music that makes you wonder if the artist is singing to God, or maybe his girlfriend, this album is not for you. If you are looking for an anointed worship and praise album, you would be hard pressed to find one better than Alive Again.

The more I listen to the CD, the more I like it! I bought the CD because of the title song, but the other songs are great as well - excellent words with deep meanings. It has been a thought provoking CD. I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I bought it, but am very pleased. If you are looking for music that is peppy, this isn't necessarily it, but it is not solemn either, somewhere in the middle.

I haven't been introduced to a Christian artist that I immediately liked so much in a long time. I was given a burned copy of this CD and liked it so much that I bought a real copy for myself, plus two copies for my mom and mom in law. Great praise and worship, great for subduing road rage. Keep it on repeat in the car.

There's a reason this album gets so many "five star ratings" It's beautiful! Defy anyone not to be moved by this album. Love this artist.
