A few decades ago nearly every country singer had at least one--often more--gospel albums in their catalog. Today, aside from gospel veteran Amy Grant, who balances the sacred and secular, and Randy Travis, that concept has long faded. For Alan Jackson, however, treating the musical past as present has been a way of life, as it is with these 15 timeless hymns from his youth. Recorded with just two acoustic guitars and a piano, it was originally a private Christmas present to his mother. The spare instrumentation is surprisingly robust behind his flawless readings of "I'll Fly Away," "Softly and Tenderly," "How Great Thou Art," "Are You Washed in the Blood?," and "The Old Rugged Cross," all as beguilingly unpretentious as any of his country hits. Instead of an all-star duet, wife Denise and daughters Mattie and Ali join in on "'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus." In the end, what began as a private bequest becomes a moving, eloquent gift to Jackson's entire audience. --Rich Kienzle

Beautiful gospel music! July 11, 2010
Pippi (Atwater, CA United States)
Alan Jackson has a voice that makes me feel like he's an old friend. We used two tracks from this CD at my father's memorial service, but enjoyed listening to the entire album at home. For those with faith who enjoy a country sound, you'll like this CD, too.
Just wonderful July 7, 2010

Awesome album July 6, 2010

If you love old hymns that you used to sing at your grandparents' church, then this album is a great purchase. I listen to it over and over and over and it brings back so many memories of being little in my grandparents' country church. Alan Jackson did a great job of singing the hymns just the way they were written.
Awesome gift! June 1, 2010
