New Derek Webb CD

Mocking Bird.

"She Must and Shall Go Free" is about Jesus and the Church. This one's about proclaiming the Kingdom.

Here's an inciteful interview about the album.

Just what exactly does that review all incite? :)

I am not sure what you mean.

You want to know what I think about it? I think the album will have some much needed messages that need to be heeded by the church--self included.

Here are some lyrics:
"My first alegience is not to democracy or blood. Its to a king and a kingdom."

"I feel so good. We moved out of Jesus' neighborhood where He's hungry, and I'm feelin so good, from going through our trash.
He says, 'More than just your cash and coins, I want your time, I want your voice...'"

Here is a link to some song samples, where I got these lyrics.

Ooh. :)

Well, that spelling error was unintentional.

But isn't it ironic. This is a very controversial album.

Thanks for the grassroots.com link! I'd heard of Derek Webb through another blog, and it was good to hear some samples.

Derek Webb was also in Caedmon's Call. He left around the time "Back Home" came out.
