One of those rare albums that I purchased based on the quality of the previous album, 40 Acres didn't disappoint. In general, not as deep as their first record, but incorporating more straight praise of God.  Highlights include the laid-back-yet-upbeat first single, "There You Go",  the calm and hopeful "Faith My Eyes", and the wonderfully encouraging title  track. The music doesn't shift much from the acoustic pop of the first  album. This time around, the songwriting duties were shared equally between  Derek Webb and Aaron Tate, with one song written by Shawn Colvin, (the  superb "Climb On"). Overall, very few surprises, but a very good follow-up  to their previous record.
