Looking at the smiling face on the cover of John Schlitt's new solo project, it's hard to believe he's a Gospel Music Hall of Famer who has been around the music biz for years. The former Petra lead singer is engaging as ever on this set of pop/rock tunes. Opener "Stand" draws listeners immediately into the record with its solid message and memorable melody. The title track is a poignant song about adoption, while "Only Men" is a powerful ballad about the supremacy of God that demonstrates the softer side of Schlitt's vocal prowess. There's also a potent version of "Lord Have Mercy," and "Face of God is another of the project's many highlights. It's good to hear Schlitt back in the game and adding to his already impressive legacy in Christian music. —Deborah Evans Price
