“He’ll Carry You”
Mississippi Mass Choir feat. Luther Barnes
From the Malaco CD …Then Sings My Soul (2013)
TBGB’s February 2011 prediction came to pass: “He’ll Carry You” by the Mississippi Mass Choir is a single.

Led by Luther Barnes of the Sunset Jubilaires, “He’ll Carry You” is a simmering church wrecker of the highest order.  Barnes and the choir sing: “When things go wrong/When friends are few/Just lean on Him/and He’ll carry you.”  

Passionate and poignant, the song, written by Frederick Knight, demonstrates the power of traditional gospel to move the human spirit.
