About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Joy Williams emerged as one of contemporary Christian music's more talented vocalists in the early 2000s. She returned at age 22 with this third offering, which was sprinkled with hints of more driving pop/rock in the same vein as Michelle Branch and Vanessa Carlton. What distinguished this go-around was a well-managed attempt at becoming more than just another teen pop voice. It helped that she took the daunting step of co-writing all ten tracks, particularly since the remainder of the writing team included the talents of Matthew West, Jason Ingram, Ian Eskelin and Ben Glover. Genesis was aptly named -- a strong showing and sort of reinvention for one who already found success in her youth. Fans of mid-career Rachael Lampa and Jaci Velasquez have plenty to make them happy with this favorable collection of upbeat, thoughtful tunes. Jared Johnson, All Music Guide

February 06, 2006: I never even heard of Joy Williams until her song "Hide" started playing on the Christian radio stations. However, I began to love her music after that! Genesis is a powerful album because all the song lyrics speak to every day people like you and me. For example, Joy's song "We" is talking about how each one of us wants someone else to give the attention we need however, what she really is saying is that we are searching for God. "Stay" talks about all of us wanting to run away from the situations God has placed us in, but we must stay and persevere until the end. I believe the theme of her album is saying we are searching for someone who will give us everything we need such as love, forgiveness, and confidence but if we want that, we must search for the Lord not a human being on this earth. Thanks Joy for this album-it totally changed my life.
