Point of Grace - I Wish

They're already huge stars in the Christian music world and their songs have always had more universal truths to them than the average CCM artist so it seems like a natural fit for this trio to crossover to country.  But does it stand a chance at radio success?

When this trio released a single earlier this year to country radio, I was a little surprised.  While they've been hugely successful in the

Christian music sector with 26 #1 singles there, I never really thought the song would be a hit.  It wasn't (for country radio).  Imagine, then, my surprise when I see their latest song, "I Wish" has been released to country radio.  Produced by Nathan Chapman, the single isn't that bad sounding and it sounds like a lot of other songs on the radio.  The lyrics also fit the definition of the country radio demographic and the hook in the chorus is immediate and somewhat memorable. This song can be a hit and may just be this winter/holiday season, but the laundry-list lyrics do get tiresome upon repeated listening.
