Cece Winans - Throne Room

If you've had the blessed opportunity to see CeCe in concert, you'll know that worship is close to her heart. It's so apparent on this project. Here's what she has to say about Throne Room and praise and worship: "As His Word proclaims, we were all created for the Father's pleasure, and our purpose is praise and worship Him. Jesus is soon to come and the spirit of the Lord is moving the body of Christ into a new sound, a pure sound, a holy sound, the sound of true worship. Our focus has got to be solely on our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ if we are going to accomplish what He wants us to accomplish in the Earth before He returns. Everything we need is found in worship."

CeCe's passion for worship is clearly evident on such cuts as Oh, Most High (with background vocals from her church choir, The Born Again Church Choir) and Worthy Is The Lamb. Another nice tune is the full recording of the introduction, Hallelujah To The King. The song showcases strong, anointed singing from Winans and her choir. One of my personal favorites is I Thirst For You. Shouldn't we all have a thirst for God that is never quenched? CeCe reminds us of the water only God can provide. Continuing with the same theme, CeCe sings her heart out on the cut, Come Fill My Heart. Both songs compliment each other beautifully and really allow CeCe to shine. She will certainly move the listener on the song, Mercy Said No. Dedicated to her brother, Ronald, the track speaks of how mercy steps up to the plate for us not giving us what we rightfully deserve. The song is simply breathtaking.

All In Your Name is a sweet song as well. Ms. Winans moves to a funky sound with No One Else and Hallelujah Praise. She takes us to the islands with the calypso rhythms of Just Like You Jesus. She ends this fabulous project with A Heart Like Yours. And isn't that what worship is all about? It's an opportunity to communicate with our loving God and ultimately, for our heart to become just like His.
