New Title, But Old Tunes

"As a Debby Boone fan, I was excited to see that Debby had a new release this year. However, beware! While this collection is listed as a new release, it actually is material recorded by Debby ten years ago! The album was titled "Be Thou My Vision: Great Hymns of Faith", released on the Benson label. These songs are not among Debby's best recordings. These versions are very "respectful": proper, but not terribly exciting. Her earlier Christian albums are more spirited (in every sense of the word). Check out "With My Song...", "Surrender", "Choose Life" or "Friends for Life" for some excellent vocal work by Ms Boone."
Heavenly love

"Debby Boone sings her praise to the Lord on this totally "Christian/Gospel" outing. The performances are perfection and would be enjoyed by anyone interested in Debby's vocals or this kind of material. Now if this label would re-release her "Christian best of" - "REFLECTIONS", they'd make alot of fans happy. BETTER YET...put her back in the studio and let this woman wrap her gorgeous voice around some new material - secular or Christian. What a waste of talent until they do!"
Pleasant voice

"Debbie knows how to appeal to the deepest spiritual feelings. In this album she demonstrated a great ability to sing the higher thoughts of her listeners."
