Multi Dove Award-winning, platinum-selling trio Point of Grace has not only decided to record Wes King's classic hit song "I Believe," they have also invited King to sing with the, You can find it wherever you stream or buy music now.
Point of Grace reveals how they came to record the song. "When we began looking for songs for our upcoming album Turn Your Eyes (Songs We Love, Songs You Know) Volume II, we unanimously landed on `I Believe.' We loved it when it first released and we are huge fans of Wes's artistry, so it felt really natural to include a cover of this song on the new album."
The song also holds a special place in the ladies' lives. "On a more personal level, it's been a couple of tough years for us. We've each lost family members and experienced some trying situations that have again and again found us holding tightly to God's Word for dear life. The lyrics of this song echo the Bible's promises so perfectly.
"Plus, it was originally written and recorded back in 1993 (the same year as our self-titled debut) by Wes, and it felt right to release `I Believe' 30 years after the release of our very first single `I'll Be Believing.'"
The single is the first release from their upcoming album Turn Your Eyes (Songs We Love, Songs You Know) Volume II which bows April 28 and is now available for pre-save. The highly anticipated Fervent Records (Curb | Word Entertainment) release follows the group's GRAMMY®-nominated 2015 Directions Home (Songs We Love, Songs You Know) and was produced by GRAMMY®-nominated, Dove Award-winning singer/songwriter Cindy Morgan.
An additional focal point of Turn Your Eyes, the newly penned "At The Table" opens the project. Written by Cindy Morgan and Point of Grace, the evocative roots/pop track is a timely reminder that all are precious in His sight. In addition, the album features a stirring rendition of Rich Mullins' iconic anthem "Awesome God"; fresh takes on modern hits "Way Maker" and "House of The Lord"; a wistful cover of the Amy Grant classic "Somewhere Down the Road," and tender new arrangements of such treasured hymns as "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus" and "It Is Well," among other selections.
"There's so much great music out there, so it just felt right to take some of these songs and breathe new life into them," says Breen. "We wanted to make something different, yet true to each song and true to our vocals as a group. I hope our friends and listeners will be uplifted and reminded of how much God cares for us all, giving His Word that is alive and active and helping us to live lives of freedom."
