Awaken (Natalie Grant Album)
''Awaken'' is the fourth studio album by contemporary Christian music singer Natalie Grant. It was released on March 22, 2005, by Curb Records. Critical reception ''AllMusic''s Johnny Loftus claimed, "Though strong, the melodies on Awaken sometimes feel recycled, and its manicured instrumentation lessens the power of Grant's singing voice. But the album is still a capable blend of Christian themes with mainstream pop texture, meaning it deserves the same accolades ''Deeper Life'' received." David McCreary of '' CCM'' said, "Confession time: As soon as I was assigned to review Natalie Grant's new CD, a not-so-flattering, preconceived notion came to mind. Isn't she just another generic-sounding pop diva? But after just one spin of her aptly titled ''Awaken'' disc, that thought was quickly relegated to 'oh-so-mistaken' status. Following an eye-opening overseas journey and a recent time of spiritual introspection, Grant now releases her most poignant and intimately reflective proje ...
