The reason I did not rate this CD as "Excellent" is because several of the songs are not as catchy (musically or lyrically)as I had hoped. The reason I bought it was because of the song "Let Us Pray" and for me, even for that one song, it was worth it. Of course I have come to love other songs on the CD as well. "Let Us Pray" is in my opinion, the crown jewel of this album. It's lyrics are eye-opening, and the music is something you'll be humming all the time. It reminds us that prayer is not a monotonous act, to be done out of obligation, but rather a cry for help, or a song of thanksgiving, approcahing the throne of a Loving Father.
Steven Curtis Chapman is the man that nearly single-handedly put Contemporary Christian Music on the map. Signs of Life is a country rock bluesy stand-out among all of his CD's. The music tracks are alive with slick guitar riffs, appealing dobro backgrounds, and Steven's unmistakable kentucky-style homegrown soul. Signs of Life came after Steven's 4 consecutive Grammy's for 'Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album' and while I like the previous grammy winning CD's, I enjoy Signs of Life much more because of its gritty, down to earth, personal quality. My favorite tune on the album is 'Lord of the Dance', every time I hear it, I just feel more alive. Once you hear it, you'll be running to purchase this CD too! I've given the CD a 5 out of 5 and wish I could rate it higher.
These items were just as described…just what I was looking for!

I bought Signs of Life CD by Steven Curtis Chapman. I really like his work. I love to listen to Christian music. I like Steven Curtis Chapman and wanted some of his older hits. I don't get to listen to it much because my daughter took it to her room.
This album is Steven Curtis Chapman's best album in my opinion. His ministry (as I see it) is chiefly as an encouragement/exhortation the Church and this album is fully both of those things. It is challenging and musically excellent.
good value
