After a brief hiatus from recording, veteran CCM duo
Shane & Shane have returned with their new album,
The One You Need.
The tracks on
The One You Need feature deeply spiritual, thought provoking lyrics. They explore themes such as freedom in Christ on “Liberty”, trusting God unconditionally on “Grace is Sufficient”, and longing for God’s presence on “Without You”.
The album’s first single, “The One You Need” is a tender letter from Shane Barnard to his newborn daughter. Pointing to Jesus as her hero rather than himself, Barnard sings “sometimes I’m gonna let you down; but there’s Someone if you just believe, be your hero like He’s always been for me. Darling, Jesus is the One you need.”

The One You Need is an excellent album featuring enjoyable songs from start to finish.
