——————————————————
My kids call him Uncle Robbie on account of their cousins always calling him Uncle Robbie.
The family tree looks like this: I’m married to Becky. Becky’s sister is Amy. Amy’s husband is Brian. Brian’s brother is Robbie.
Not only is Robbie my kids’ uncle-in-law (second uncle? third? twice removed?), but he’s also one of their favorite singers. And one of mine.
Robbie and I went to college together and I liked envied his voice so much back then that I asked him to sing in my wedding. And look, he did!
He even wore a suit. And shoes. And sang a Michael English song I think. And I hope I paid him well for that because, I mean really, a suit and shoes.
Anyway, Uncle Robbie has a new CD out called “Miracle” and it’s great, as evidenced by the fact that this is the first time I’ve ever done a giveaway of any sort. I wish I wrote these songs. I wish I had that voice.
A “Miracle” CD and record (one of those big black disc things) and a suhweet Texas Robbie Seay Band T-shirt can be yours my internet “friends.” Just follow these simple directions:
1. Listen to clips from “Miracle” below and pick a favorite.
2. Leave a comment telling us what your favorite song from “Miracle” is.
3. Read this post on Tuesday at 10AM Texas time (of course) to find out if you won this prize package:
Limit one comment per person. I’ll use a random integer generator thingy to pick the winning comment at 10AM Central on Tuesday and I’ll announce the winner right here in this post. “Miracle” contains no Michael English covers. Yes, I had a pony tail. Yes, I do regret that daily.

Well Shaun, I have to say that my favorite song was Kingdom and a King. However, if perchance I do win I ask this: go to your local hospital. Go to the adolescent ward(you may need permission from the guard). The first patient you see, hand them the prize. They deserve it.
I spent much of my youth in the adolescent ward of hospitals. Little children are usually the focus of most volunteer organizations(in my experience). Teenagers are a hard mindset to focus on and, they usually express their fear and pain through anger.
The gift you have above would make an amazing difference in a teenagers life. Just imagine. You are walking(or rolling) the halls, and some stranger hands you a gift, smiles and walks off.
So, anyway. If *I* win, thats how I where I would like the gift to be sent.
(Totally off topic here but, I am reading the 1611 King James version of the bible. In my dreams, everyone speaks as if they just jumped out of it…..is that odd?)
My favorite song is “Kingdom and a King” – great lyrics, great melody!
Thanks so much for this giveaway!
Miracle. Although it was hard to pick.
I think Miracle. I read somewhere online part of the story behind that song…and I have a dear friend just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer…so this song is like a prayer I’m praying for her.
Sorry couldn’t choose, I honestly liked them ALL. Your right he does have an amazing voice. My daughter is a huge Britt Nicole fan (ok so am I) and I would love to find a cool band for my teenage son to be a fan of as well. This could be it! Love it….
Kingdom and a King and Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go. Really enjoyed listening to all of them though.
Kingdom and a King. Love Robbie Seay Band.:)
“Rejoice my heart, you have been made whole, by a love that will not let go.” ~Oh Love That Will Not Let me Go
Little needs to be said to expand on why this song/lyric is uh-mazing. It might be that I am learning a lot about God’s love as of late; how illogical it is; how incomprehensible it is, or or how truly real it is if you sit still long enough to let it wash over you.
In addition to a crazy good song– I’m digging that t-shirt. Cause I’m from Texas and any chance I have to be obnoxiously proud about it, I aim to take it.
Your Love is Strong – great stuff all of it
Let Our Faith Not Be Alone – Ah! I love this song so much. I too love his voice and his music. I remember him from my days at Baylor.
On a side note – is that Whitney Patterson in your wedding photo? She and I were in BRH together for a short time. Um, love HER voice too!
Fun giveaway!
1. Do I get extra credit since I actually have a record player (that works perfectly!) *and* I’m under 30 years old??
2. “Oh Love that Will Not Let Me Go” Just the title made my heart sing. Then the lyrics, “Oh rejoice my heart! You’ve been made whole by a love that will not let me go!” Yes. That’s my favorite.
3. My son (18 months) dance the entire time I listened to these songs, and that was totally worth it! Thank you.
Well, I have really only heard Miracle, so I will go with that one.
But would love to check out the whole CD. Maybe I will if I win.
YOUR LOVE IS STRONG, adore that one.
I guess you can give my prize to Yael if I win, and then do what she said… because really, what a great idea
thanks!
Your Love Is Strong was pretty great!
Kingdom and a King….but really all of these songs are good. Better than good. Lyrics that are more of a proclamation and such a good sound!
“Oh, Love that will not let me go” is my favorite! Love it!
“Kingdom and a King” is great too! Well, actually, all of them are great!
Love Invades is great, love the opening guitars-
Jesse
The bass part on “Love Invades” is pretty awesome, but my favorite is his version of Jon Foreman’s “Your Love Is Strong.”
I’m a sucker for “Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go,” and I really liked this version of the song.
Crazy Love would be right up there, but Oh Love That Will not Let Me Go is a close close second. However, I was completely moved by Yael’s post, so if I win please do with is as Yael suggested.
“Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go.” I love that hymn, so just the title alone put that one high up in the running, but after having listened to the whole album, it’s still my favorite. Might need to sing it at our “rock ‘n roll” service some Saturday night.
Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go is a great song!
Though it is a cover, I think I would say my favorite song is Your Love Is Strong. Beautiful song.
I got to listen to a preview of the entire record, and the whole thing sounds great.
It’s hard to pick a favorite, but I think that mine might be either Miracle or Your Love is Strong.
Can I say that I love it that vinyl is making a comeback?
I really enjoyed Kingdom and a King. I love how you have it set up to where I can just let them all play…
Lament. Maybe its the mood. So evocative of my own longings…
Love all of the songs on Miracle. Been listening to it all week. My favorite is Let Our Faith Not Be Alone though.
Great album, I saw “uncle” Robbie Seay Band at a festival this summer they were awesome. its a hard choice to make, but i think my favorite song is either “Miracle” or “let our Faith Not be Alone”
My fave RSB song from Miracle is “We Are Not Alone”. Sick intro with the acoustic picking, then the beat gets into your soul, as the guitar melody sings you can’t help but start bobbing your head and since I’m from LA, I spontaneously put my right hand in the air (open palm, fingers stretched) and start throwing it back and forth. I even threw out a YEAH! and a WOOOORD! The lyrics speak Son, er Shaun, God is with us always, throw away your doubts, we are all his children, sing to him, we are not alone!
Your Love Is Strong. Absolutely love that song!!
Wow, it is very hard to pick a favorite since I like them all! “Lament” is probably at the top of the list though.
I’m liking “Awaken My Soul.” They are all good, though!
I had a hard time choosing until I heard “Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go.” That wins for me, hands down.
your love is strong – jon foreman wrote it and already killed it, but its really cool to see some other folks picking up and singing it as well. thanks [uncle] robbie and thanks shaun!
God bless
miracle!:)
Hey! Awesome!
My favorte is most defintely “We Are Not Alone”.
MIRACLE!! LOVE that song! I hope I win! Thanks for the chance Shaun!
Oh Love that Will Not Let Me Go… great stuff
My favorite song (at the moment) is “Your Love is Strong.” Beautiful!
let our faith not be alone
I really like “Awaken My Soul.” It sounds like a road trip song.
“Your Love is Strong”
just has a great melody and message. Its a rocker, then its worshipful…. I love it!
“Kingdom And A King”
Tough choice! I didn’t think I would have a clear favorite until I got to the last; Oh Love That Will Not Let me Go. Great music!
Title Track: Miracle is my favorite (for now.)
I just love it when people still believe in God’s miraculous power; and better yet, when they ask for it. “I need a miracle.” Been there.
My favourite is We are not Alone, because I think it is the most quintessentially “Robbie Seay”-esque
But really, they are all wonderful 
Thanks for having a contest
This is a lot harder than I thought it would be.
Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go
Let Our Faith Not Be Alone
Oh, that we as the church would remember the bigger picture, of which we are only a part.
This songs kicks!
I didn’t listen to all of the songs, but a few did grab my attention:
*Awaken My Soul: Awakening has been a huge thing that God has shown me recently and is still showing me. That one word grabbed me. =]
*Crazy Love: My group at college is reading through Francis Chan’s “Crazy Love” and discussing it. I’ve read it before, but even the second/third time around reading it, it still convicts me.
*Your Love Is Strong: While I do like Jon Foreman’s version a little more, this song is superb and I just love it. =]
Loved them all! Awaken my soul was my fav!
I believe after one time through my favorite is Kingdom and a King. I recently lost a great friend to cancer, God took him to his eternal home so that he could receive the reward he earned by sharing the Gospel of Christ. Over the last two months I can’t help but think how faithful God is, how sinful I am, and how AWESOME the Kingdom is going to be and to have nothing distracting me from Worshiping the King. Thanks for a great song.
“Lament” is absolutely remarkable and kept me locked. I forgot the rest of the CD tracks… literally. We need your grace, Oh God. The song makes my heart hurt yet blesses me richly and deeply.
Robbie’s a breath of fresh air for me. So what do we need to get these songs on the radio in east TN?
I can’t pick, so I’ve used the oh-so-scientific way I choose children in my gr2 classes – shut my eyes and point ……. Let our faith not be alone.
Think I’ll have to go buy the album.
Very tough indeed…I think I am going to go for Lament.
Great album but i have to pick love invades. i want to thank Shaun for this opportunity, this is some great music.
Let our Faith Not Be Alone, although I liked all of them!
I’m going to go with “Oh Love that will not let me go”. Great song to end an album with! They came to my church recently and I liked their version of “Your Love is Strong” better live than on the CD…think Jon Foreman’s is still better.
I like “Crazy Love”. I was drawn to it because of F.Chan’s book, and because the song is truth.
It has a very anthemic sound to it. I’d love to hear it live!
I liked all of what I heard but during Kingdom and a King I was getting those chills so I think that song right now wins my vote for favorite. Awesome songs Uncle Robbie.
I also think the album is a great record of standout tracks and I’ve had a couple of people ask me what my favorite song on the album is. Strangely enough, I always say “Oh Love that will not let me go” which isn’t the song I would have thought I would choose. I have LOVED that hymn for the last couple of years, though, and Robbie’s remake of it into a new, updated contemporary song with a great tag/chorus had me coming back to it over and over again.
I am not sure exactly which one is my favorite…I love all RSB songs…but when I listened to Lament it pretty much stopped me in my tracks. My instantly went to Haiti. As a new mother to a precious little girl, it was almost too much to think about.
We cannot wait…
Its gotta be Lament. You can tell its a tune written straight out of personal life experience, but it still pertains to each and everyone that sings/worships with it.
Powerful stuff.
“Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go.” One of my all-time favorite hymns, and this is a fabulous, stripped-down version.
I love all the songs…this cd speaks to me so much…but my most absolute favorite is “Crazy Love” but coming in a close second is the acustic version of “song of hope”
“Lament” definitely takes my top pick because of sweet vocal harms by Breanne Düren. But is overall a great record and takes my top spot for 2010 Inspirational Album thus far.
CRAZY LOVE!!!! Great song guys keep it up! Can’t wait for my vinyl!
Lament is so amazing!
Love the whole cd…..Lament is beautiful!
My favorite song would have to “Let Our Faith Not Be Alone.”
“awaken my soul”, if I really have to pick just one. Love Robbie seay!
“Crazy Love” definitely. Followed closely by “We Are Not Alone.”
Looking forward to seeing both of you in MN sometime soon…right? Right?
Kingdom and King gets my vote, but they are all very nice.
My favorite song on the new album is, “Your love is strong.” This song was originally performed by Jon Foreman, on his Spring EP. But, that doesn’t mean that Robbie & Co. Don’t make an exceplet performance. In essence, the song is the Lord’s prayer, which was taught to the apostles. When I first heard the song, I was really into the use of scripture. As I listened to it more and more, I began to appreciate the prayer wrapped around the Lord’s prayer. Jesus taught us to pray just like he did, and that’s what this song is.
It’s so hard to pick just one, so will take the one I listened to last, “Let Our Faith Be Not Alone”
“Let our Faith be not Alone”.
“Miracle” definitely. Don’t we all need the daily miracle of Jesus and His forgiveness and grace in our lives?
it changes everyday!
but today, my fave is CRAZY LOVE!
Very hard to pick just one favorite song, but I did and it is “Let Our Faith Be Not Alone”. Really moved me, especially leading up to Resurrection Week-end. “We Are Not Alone” came in almost at a tie!
I have been a huge fan of RSB ever since they came and performed at my church (Real Life Christian Church) outside Orlando about 2 years ago.
Great new album guys, hope you head back to O-Town soon!
“Let Our Faith Not Be Alone” – such a great song!
“LAMENT” – love the words to this one.
I love “Let Our Faith Be Not Alone.” It’s great. I’ve listened to it over and over now.
And “Your Love is Strong” is always a winner.
Lament is my fav.
It seems its the same cry of my heart in response to the weight of my sin in light of who he is. Great song. We need his Grace.
I’m a sucker for “Miracle”. I could just go “on and on and on” all day singing it!
Btw, love the pic!
Kingdom and a King! Love the part about not waiting on the government to move while the broken and the poor cry out to you….
long way home
Kingdom and a King
Hard to pick between “Lament” and “Crazy Love”….CL’s chorus is so simple, but so catchy…love it.
Overall favorite, though, would have to be Lament. I believe RSB writes some of the best, if not the best, call & response songs out there. “Go Outside” from their last recording is a favorite of mine as well. “Lament” tops it for me.
We cannot wait….
I’d love to have the vinyl! how cool is that?!?
Right now, “Let Our Faith Be Not Alone”
I love them all soo much. However I think my favorite is Lament. Can’t get enough of Robbie and Breanne singing together.
Kingdom and a King is my favorite, but the whole record is STRONG.
I think my favorite song from Miracle is Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go
Crazy Love!!
My favorite is “Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go”. It is a great reminder that God rejoices over us. Zeph. 3:17. His compassionate love is not conditional. Thanks for the give-away.
Cray Love, but I think they will all be favorites.
