Mark Mallet: Deliver Me From Me
HROUGHOUT
MARK MALLETT'S's CD album we encounter God's mercy in the
face of our sinfulness and human weakness. Mark has endured
trials at the hand of God and in his flesh and won victory
through God's grace and perseverance. Any musical gift gains
power by embracing the cross.
The track "Deliver Me From Me"
expresses very well the struggle between the flesh and the
Spirit. It is a prayer that shows confidence in God's mercy.
"The Prodigal" talks of one who has strayed and desires only
to be with God. The line "under the shelter of your wings"
from the chorus focuses our thoughts on the all encompassing
mercy of God.
Deliver Me From Me offers a laid back
sound allowing the listener to sit back and let the words
and music wash over him or her. Many of the lyrics are
ballads played in a country-folk guitar style, adding an
atmosphere of peaceful relaxation to the CD's overall tone.
A visit to Mark's web-site (www.markmallett.com)
not only provides some biographical information and a
glimpse of the vision that Mark has been given, it offers us
encouragement for our own journeys. The Lord needs apostles
like Mark to advance his kingdom.
