From the Mary Mary website … Mary Mary is a sister duo I just saw on a friend’s Facebook post: … “Fearless. That one word eloquently captures the creative spirit of groundbreaking duo Mary Mary. Ever since siblings Erica Campbell and Tina Campbell broke through in 2000 with the pioneering crossover hit “Shackles (Praise You),” the chart-topping sister act has never wavered from defying convention to fulfill its mission: Sending uplifting messages through music and words that are relatable to everyone. “It’s about making music that touches both adults and young people,” says Erica. Adds Tina, “It’s about spreading good news for the world but doing it in the Mary Mary way: banging beats and melodies, intertwined voices and messages of hope.”
I am not one to enjoy much of the modern music of today … there is not enough poetry in it, not enough meaning. And their music won't appeal to most people my age. But listen to these young women … daughters raised by faith-filled parents … and you do hear messages that matter. It is great music but in a way it is also scripture made real. It is the human condition given voice, and hope.
Listen to this song, listen to the lyrics … it’s about taking life one day at a time. So is it inspired by Matthew 6:33-34 … “But seek ye first the kingdom of God
