Trin-i-tee 5:7 is the debut studio album by American gospel group Trin-i-tee 5:7. It was released by GospoCentric on July 14, 1998 in the United States. This was the first and only album to feature original member Terri Brown who would leave following year. In 2011, Taylor and Hayes re-recorded the remix of "God's Grace" from their Angel & Chanelle album with the original versions to the song.

The album debuted at number 139 the US Billboard 200 and reached number one on the Top Gospel Albums, and number two on the Christian Albums.[1] In 2000, it was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[2] Trin-i-tee 5:7 spawned three singles, including "Oh! Mary Don't You Weep", "God's Grace", and "You Can Always Call His Name".

AllMusic[3]

AllMusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine rated the album two and a half out of five stars. He felt that Trin-i-tee was "an admirable attempt to bring the cool, new jack R&B stylings of TLC to contemporary gospel. Since the sound is so sexy, it's a little strange to hear it in a sacred setting, but the tracks that do work on Trin-I-Tee 5:7 prove that this was a risk worth taking."[3]
