In 2006, 4Given received a Covenant Award for a song Darlene Lemmon wrote “Prayer Changes Things.” “4Given is a good example of gospel’s modern sound. Instead of standard hymns or southern spirituals, it has a modern pop sound, big production values and tunes that move from R&B backing to electric guitar-driven numbers. There’s no confusing the content though. Each lyric is directed at God, a modern musical Book of Psalms.” - Bob Mersereau – Music writer and arts reporter for CBC.
