*= favorite cuts

1 – (2:51) God. Mid-tempo spiritual anthem, nicely done.
2 – (4:18) Bell.* Slow, more traditional gospel sound, vocal duet.
3 – (3:25) Gone Astray. Slightly reggae feel, mid-tempo, kind of repetitive.
4 – (3:21) Brother.* Melodic spiritual, good vocals & harmonies.
5 – (3:31) Nothing Like.* Upbeat, pretty transition, nice vocals.
6 – (3:01) Time Bomb. Pokey-paced, playful, just so-so.
7 – (4:29) None.* Likeable tune, nice vocal interplay, pretty music.
8 – (2:53) Inversion.* Spoken prayer set to music, forceful, best cut on the album.
