The album was met with positive reviews from critics and blogs. Melody Charles from Soultracks gave a positive review of the album stating "Blessed with some of the most powerful of pipes in her generation, Kelly Price is a singer and songwriter who has combined equal measure of gospel fervor and relatable authenticity since her 1998 debut (Soul of a Woman). No matter what medium she's delivering in live or Memorex the clarity and conviction poured into Kelly's performances are enough to make the listener want to run down an aisle ("He Proposed"), shout His praises ("This Is Who I Am") or throw a temper tantrum ("Tired") all at the same time, which is why Sing Pray Love, Vol. 1: Sing is such an appropriate title for her seventh studio release.Judging from the philosophy Kelly drops in the final track, "Metamorphosis," the next CD might just be entitled Redemption, Restoration and Forgiveness, Vol. 2....then again, when that sangin' voice of hers hits your ears, all that matters is the music, not any of the drama (authentic or otherwise) surrounding it. And since Ms. Price remains focused on what matters, we can't help but do the same. Sing on Sister Kelly.....sing on.^[2] Examiner gave a positive review of the album stating "In three words, Kelly Price has managed to describe her life and music. Sing, Pray, Love is the completion of Kelly as a woman, mother, writer, friend and singer. Of course, there will be more singing, more praying and more loving since this album is part of a three-volume series but for now, enjoy the ride of Sing Pray Love Vol 1: SING.
