"This CD/DVD is an awesome culmination of the Tri-City Singers under Donald Lawrence's annointed leadership. Donald and Tri-City have provided some of the most invaluable inspiration to urban/contemporary gospel music that I've ever witnessed. Surely, there will be many more solo projects that come about as a result of this awesome final reunion. I have watched the DVD countless times and listen to the CD in consistent rotation. This and Part II are an absolute MUST HAVE for all D. Lawrence/Tri-City fans! D., you made me proud!"
I am an Heir

"My My My this is a fantastic work from Donald, and Tri-City. Donald did a wonderful job with this project, and though I am sad to see the end of such a mighty era, I find joy in knowing that they went out ministering and blessing. The package as a whole is awesome. This is a must have, not only if you are a fan of Donald and Tri-City, but if you are a fan of Gospel in general. This CD is a fine introduction of some of the best songs of this year. I honestly cannot pick a favorite song, as this is a CD that I can listen to all the way through without skipping a track. I never heard Donald minister in such a mighty way, but man him and the choir really put their all into this project. As I hear this CD I am currently stationed in Iraq, and this CD reminds me of who I am, and I thank God that he allowed this CD to bless me. I am truly an heir, and as I go to claim the blessings of Abraham, I will watch my Giants fall. If you get the chance to watch the DVD I promise you will feel like you are in the midst of a church service, it is a great presence of the Lord. Be Blessed."
Way to go out!

"I ordered my from Amazon and have yet to receive it. But listening to the samples have reminded me of what I experienced back on November 6, 2005. I was fortunate enough to attend the concert with my girlfriend and believe me, a concert it was. Possibly the best I have ever be to, and I have been to a lot.
The choir is so polished vocally and the musicians are all right in the pocket. I have started to get tired of "The Blessings of Abraham" since I work in a Christian Bookstore that plays it all the time, but I really need the message of that song along with "Heir" and "Giants".
I don't know if you will be able to get the same effect through the DVDs that I got in person. The A+ of gospel acts will bless you, not to mention the greats in the audience (Ted Wynn from Ted and Sheri, Byron Cage, Isaac Carree from Men of Standard, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, the list goes on.)
We were on our feet the whole time, not because it was a recording, but because the presence of the Lord was definitely there.
I could go on and on and on, but it's hard to point out bright spots among the new tracks because they are all so good. The three already mentioned are superb,along with "These Nails", "Encourage Yourself" with Sheri from Ted and Sheri, "God Is", and "Matthew 28". You will love all of the D'Lawrence hits. Gospel music, choir music at it's best."
