I love music! It is a big part of my life! I just love listening to it and singing along to it! I love Christi covers! Christi does such a great job at singing every song she picks out, and I love how she puts a spiritual/personal application with each song! THank you, Christi, for doing this! And it did sound better with that new mic!

The sound quality sounded much better to me! Thanks for buying the new microphone so we can hear your beautiful voice even clearer and louder than before! Great job on the cover video! Keep ’em coming! 😀

love this song! Listen to it all the time on 103.1 way fm. There are a lot of great christian songs on there. For anyone who has never listened to that station before, you should. It is very inspirational and moving. And not to mention they have a hilarious talk show called “The Wally Show”. Check it out. You wont be dissapointed!!!
