And thanks. For making this music with me. For funding and encouraging and correcting me the whole way. Thank you!
CONGRATULATIONS! So exciting. I can’t wait to help spread the word in a few days. Right now I’m blessed to be sequestered in a little corner of America with no wifi and limited cell service as I pursue one of my own dreams and projects. The way you shared your project with us really inspired me to do this so I feel like I owe you a big thanks! I can’t wait to hear the album!
I’m loving it!
woo hoo!
Awesome, congratulations. Listening right now. After having heard 6 or 7 of these tunes in various iterations on your site over the past couple years, it’s nice to hear them w/ full studio realization. ‘Sing’ went in a totally different direction than I expected; i love it. Very organic sounding. I hope God has blessed your time working on this, bringing you and all involved closer to Him. Thanks for giving me more stuff to want to sing at church
I thought you had to change the name?? So glad you didn’t! Congratulations on an amazing project!!
The people spoke. I listened. Thanks for voicing an opinion!
Congratulations Shaun. I love seeing the dreams of people come to life.
Awesome! I love “Sing.” As someone who battles depression, I cannot even begin to express how much this song speaks to me. Thank you for sharing it! “…For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” II TImothy 1:7. :0)
I can’t wait!! It’s been a long time coming and I’m so excited to hear these songs. I only wish I could turn on my radio and hear them too. For now, they’ll get tons of play on my iPod and I plan on passing them on to our worship director if that’s OK with you. Do I rate an advance copy or do I have to wait with the masses?
Beth
Congratulations! I’ll pray it changes hearts.
I have no idea what your conception is for the album art, but have you considered using artwork from the Compassion children you sponsor? Is that allowed? I think it would be great!
Beth
this has absolutely made my day….
Love it. Congrats on a job well done!
Love the you kept the name! Cant wait to hit play and listen to the finished product.
I agree with Beth for the album art. Showcasing Compassion children sounds like an awesome idea.
Thanks for sharing the album when you did Shaun. You could not have posted it at a more perfect time yesterday. I have just returned home after one of the hardest weeks of my life, and I had the sweetest time last night in my quiet house, listening to the album. I know you didn’t write it for me, but God used it at just the right time to minister to my weary soul. Thanks so much.
Great to hear! Honored to be part of God giving you what you needed…right on time.
Awesome and congratulations!!!
AAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
That’s my happy excited yell.
I’ve already been listening to this every day anyway. So there.
So great! Love it. It has been so cool to follow the process with you, I feel like I know each song on a more personal level. Congrats to you!
So beautiful. I’m pre-ordering it right now.
Congrats Shaun! Mission accomplished! Listening now and can’t wait to listen in my car, windows down! Thank you!
GREAT! I will be spreading the word. Congrats, this is very exciting. Thank you for bringing us all along with you on this journey!
So glad you kept the title, hadn’t heard that you changed it back.
Not too thrilled with the artwork…liked the t-shirt better
Thanks for sharing the journey with us, and impacting myself and family to rethink what is important.
Love it…Kingdom Coming is awesome. As I listen I just see the faces of my Compassion kids in my mind. Great lyrics.
“Til the sword is spared
And the bread is shared
‘Til the dying’s done
Let your kingdom come
‘Til the rich ones give
And the poor ones live
‘Til the weak are strong
Let your kingdom come”
Thank you Shaun.
Just Facebooked ya to my little cul-de-sac of the Facebook world
Way to go, Shawn! May God bless this project and use it to bless many.
Thank you, Beth!
Put the link on FB and also included it our church’s website “The City.”

It’s awesome to hear the finished product. It has been cool to see this record take shape; thank you Shaun for sharing. I can’t wait to get my copy.
If we’ve already ordered it, when can we expect to receive it? I kind of want to wait to listen to it when I get the cd. I’m old fashioned like that!
Yay!! Congratulations, Shaun! It’s playing now and the babe growing within is dancing to the beat
Awesome. Will spread the word and can’t wait to listen. I have no doubt it will be encouragement for me, and I’m grateful for it already.
Congrats! Keep growing in your faith and encouraging the rest of us to grow too!
I’m loving the new album and have been listening to it every day. I have posted it for my Facebook friends and look forward to getting my “real” copy. Thank you for taking us along with you on the creative process. It was fun and I feel connected to the songs in a special way.
What I’ve heard sounds great…posted the widget on my little corner of facebook.
