The Songs' Lyrical Messages - PRETTY AND THE PLAIN

The lyrical messages of the variety of songs presented so well revolve around the main theme: the freedom and redemption we have in Jesus Christ, exploring not only the qualities of Jesus, but also the different aspects of  our spiritual walk;the evolving nature of human faith, trust, dependence, obedience and love as it pertains to developing a closer relationship with Jesus.

Songs of Testimony; Being thankful and filed with gratitude for what Jesus does for us and who He is in our lives.

Title Song: The Pretty and the Plain - Explores the life-changing experience of accepting Jesus on a personal level, and the joyous gratitude felt by the believer who has evolved to a more personal relationship with Jesus, being changed on so many levels.

YOU TOLD ME SO: An anthem which rejoices in some of the important promises made by the Lord to us.

WHERE I LAND - No matter the storm we are experiencing, we can depend on the Lord to be there with us, as a friend, comforter and encourager who strengthens us as we become closer to him.

Evolving in our awareness of the Lord - Songs about changing emotionally, growing in faith and seeking the Lord.

GROW - Evolving as a human being - Expressing feelings and even crying is a needed release in human beings which allows us to grow emotionally and spiritually as we share with the Lord our thoughts and emotions.

FLY AWAY - Yearning to grow closer in the Lord, being free from anything which stands in the way of our relationship with Him -

Explore who Jesus is to us; His character, His love and His purpose for us in learning to serve Him.
