Music Review: Sarah Reeves - Sweet Sweet Sound - Page 2

“Sweet Sweet Sound” reveals the true heartbeat of Reeves musical ministry, serving as an instrument of the Most High, to praise Him in song, to please Him. A stellar work, it drives deep with simple accompaniment, relying upon Reeves voice to reach deeply into the soul and high into the heavens. Ah, heartbreakingly beautiful - a phrase which applies to the entire EP, but most particularly to this track. After sampling this track online I was hooked, couldn’t wait for my disc to arrive, and Reeves hasn’t disappointed.

Lyrical, longing and filled with symphonic melodies, “Come Save” and “My Saviour” reveal personal cries to Jesus to rescue us from this failing world and our own iniquity. The mingling of pop sensibilities, rich orchestral swells and full-bodied communion with Jesus on these tracks have allowed me to enter into personal worship with Him into the most mundane circumstances. Swept away to the throne, intercession in song, Reeves takes me there while hanging laundry, doing dishes, comforting a child.

I have in past years listened solely to LPs, feeling I received more ‘bang for my buck’. However, I strongly encourage you to pick up Reeves' EP (it’s also happens to be incredibly affordable.) Her debut is not to be missed, I only wish she’d given us more! It’s my hope and prayer that we’ll be hearing great things from her in years to come. If this is only the beginning, I can only imagine what further he the deepening of her personal experience with the Lord will bring.
