Broken Girl| Posted November 05, 2012
Thank you so much for this song. I have been on a journey to find God in my life and was introduced to your music through the song Forgiveness. I am not able to forgive yet or put my trust in God, but I am working on this. Your song Broken Girl really speaks to me and definitely has helped me in my search for trust.

One of the best artists of our time.| Posted November 01, 2010
I started listening to Contemporary Christian music about a year ago and since then, one of my favorite artists has been Matthew West. His songs are very inspiring, and the lyrics to his songs are ones that we can compare to our own lives as well.
Just keeps getting better| Posted November 01, 2010
Matthew West is one of the few artists that pick up speed and quality as they continue to write songs. Some artists burn out after the first couple of albums but Matthew West continues to pour himself into his music and it shows.
A Heart with Something to Say| Posted October 31, 2010
Infectious melodies, passionate vocals, and a heart burning for God ... Matthew West is one of those artists who always has a song that will touch your heart and draw you close to the One Who they're all about.
