A genre of music born out of suffering, Southern Gospel music is characterized by its love for the Cross and longing for heaven. Culled from hundreds of personal interviews with Southern Gospel songwriters, this collection of the stories behind the songs is sometimes comical, sometimes sad, sometimes heartwarming, but always true--true stories of God's people who are willing to be used of Him to bless the hearts of others. Songs include:
Mansion Over the Hilltop We Shall Behold Him Canaanland Is Just in Sight He's Still Working on Me We've Come This Far by Faith Sweet Beulah Land
