Andree Farias of AllMusic concludes his review with, "Selah is perhaps the only unoriginal true original left in Christian music, a group that sticks to its classic guns while everyone else chases the latest flavor of the moment."

Dale Lewis reviews the album for TitleTrakk and begins, "Selah, best known for their contemporary hit "You Raise Me Up," returns with a very personal and poignant album in You Deliver Me."[3]

Suzie Brock of Cross Rhythms gives the album 8 out of a possible 10 and writes, "Throughout the whole album the standard of the lead vocals and harmonies is very high, with every song being touching in a different way. Piano is featured heavily in the arrangements which are refreshingly contemporary. Selah's personnel have changed considerably down the years but they retain a slick professionalism and a winning way of mixing old hymns and new material."[2]
