Help with some old p&w songs
« on: October 06, 2010, 08:45:40 PM »
Name me some off, Kinda the ones that people have forgot about, I'm at a lost, I brought back a good but died down, my memory kills me. Provide a link if possible. I'm talking p&w songs from the 80's-early/mid 90's.

Thanks in advance.

IMO many African-American churches were not interested in P&W in the early 80's. I believe the devotional period was still in place in most Baptist churches and we were singing mostly hymns and spirituals with a few congregational choruses and some borrowed gospel songs thrown in like "This Joy I Have" "You Can't Make Me Doubt Him" "Jesus On the Mainline", "Victory Is Mine", "Woke Up This Morning"  . The devotional period was more vibrant in Pentecostal churches (obviously) and they had their own songs, "I'm A Soldier", "If You Call On Jesus", "Send It On Down", and many other choruses built on the same chord progression, etc.
 I think some of the songs that first made it over onto P&W lists included "This Is The Day", "He Has Made Me Glad",  "Hallelujah" (that famous 1 word chorus), Andrae Crouch's "Bless the Lord, O, My Soul", "What A Mighty God We Serve", "He Is Lord", "God Is So Good".

and of course there's "Thank You, Lord", "I Was Glad When They Said Unto Me", "Jesus, I'll Never Forget", "When I Think of the Goodness of Jesus"...
