This Time Around is the first studio album by contemporary Christian musician Heather Williams, released on September 27, 2011 by Fair Trade Services.
In the Christian Broadcasting Network interview with Kristi Watts, Williams said that her relationship with God began in 2004, when her son at six months' old died of a heart condition.[2] In addition, Williams noted how the Bible said that we are as Christian's to live the life of Christ, and that we partake in his suffering.[2] So, Williams' gave the suffering of her sons' death over to God, and she told that he worked it for her good.[2] This allowed her to have a faith not like King Saul rather King David, which is not about ourselves, but one focused on God.[2] Lastly, Williams' noted the more grace that we have received from God, means that we need to give and show more of it as well.[2]
Heather Williams tells CCM Magazine's Caroline Lusk that the album process was akin to "'a birthing process...long and painful.'"[3] Furthermore, Williams highlighted that "'Getting to work with Jamie Moore and Chuck Butler definitely grew me as an artist. I like to be challenged.'"[3] Williams put the spotlight not on herself, but onto God, when she said "'I'm an ordinary girl who God saved...I don't want people to look to me...but to God. You don't have to be a musician, but give Him what you have. If we have Christ in our life and we've experienced that salvation we need to be sharing it.'"[3]
Composition
- "Hallelujah"
The song was written from the prayer that Williams' wrote, where she wanted "Jesus please come, please come today," and this was within a year of her sons' death and while she was pregnant with her daughter.[2]
- "God Is Still God"
The song comes about because God is constant in our lives and he can bring us through anything if we would let him.[2]
