The Dream is classic Sanctus Real as you know and love them. It’s an elixir for the exhausted. It’s a reminder to seek out the one Who gives true peace and hope for an uncertain future. It’s the hand of fellow believers lifting you to your feet again and helping you find solid ground where once you stumbled." - Christian Music Review
