At ''Christianity Today'', Russ Breimeier noted that "the more striking difference between ''Psalms'' and ''Carry Away'', however, is the polished production. ''Psalms'' was just earthy enough and rough around the edges to be appealing." In addition, he wrote that "''Carry Away'' is a slight lyrical departure from the strictly scriptural ''Psalms''."
