"We took our time on this recording and we're very, very pleased with the way these songs tell our stories. These songs are about gratitude, forgiveness, hope and redemption. themes that describe where we live, and probably where most people live," said Bill Gaither.

"For that reason I believe Greatly Blessed has a great deal of relevance, not only today, but years from now as well. This is a recording we couldn't wait to release, so we are excited that time is drawing near!"
