"This is incredible! One of the best Christian artists of our time is right here on Amazon, yet I am the first (and so far the only) reviewer for both his CDs that I own! People need to hear these songs! They're great!

1. Faithful Love -- Pretty good worship song.

2. Can't Keep a Good Man Down -- country-musicky, but still good (I've never really been into country)

3. Living Life Upside Down -- Absolutely perfect! One of my favorite sections is --

"We've got a program for saving the earth

While unborn children are denied their right to birth

One baby's blessed, another's cursed

Have we made this world better or worse

Now that the life of a tree comes first?

You say we've risen to a new age of life

And you're telling me what used to be wrong is now right..."

4. Pictures on Mantles -- the title song. Very sweet -- about how his relatives and loved ones are captured in the pictures above his fire...

5. Sweetest Sound -- Good.

6. My Heart's Already There -- One of the best songs on the album.

7. When I'm With You -- Ditto...

"When I'm with you

This world stops turning

One look in your eye,

And my heart stops hurting

I love the way that you know

Just what to do

With me, when I'm with you."

8. Love Revolution -- Decent...not one I'd put on my iPod (when I finally save up enough for one).

9. Miracles -- I can't even remember this song. Weird. But I bet it's good.

10. If You Could See Me Now -- Ditto #9

11. I Smile -- Good, joyful song.

12. Live What I Believe -- YES!
