INTO OUR FAITH
Into Our Faith is the long awaited debut CD from one of
Singapore's most well known Christian bands, Walking On Water.
Recorded 'live' off their last concert before bassist Mylene Ng left
for a two year hiatus to Australia, Into Our Faith depicts the band
members' spiritual journey over the past three years.
The collection starts with a piece inspired by Jesus' Sermon on the
Mount, and continues to weave in and out of themes based on real
life struggles, late night musings and relationships. Sincere,
heartfelt and honest lyrics run through these gospel songs such as
World Falling Apart ('with my world crumbling around me/and my life
falling apart') and You See Me ('Lord help me see/my life is worthy
in your eyes'), written during particularly trying times. And the
nice thing about the CD is that the sleeves are peppered with short
background introductions behind each song.
Stylistically the versatile Walking On Water tackles pop, R&B, funk
to rap, usual of the band members' combined influences. Into Our
Faith adds to the revival of locally written gospel music, the kind
that significantly speak to us during the ups and downs of our
journey in faith.
