“Hiding Place”
Stanley Johnson

Wow, can Stanley Johnson sing! The 23 year-old recent college graduate has contributed background vocals for Pastor Rance Allen and can play several instruments, as well.
Johnson’s “Hiding Place” is a gorgeously hypnotic praise and worship song about being wrapped in Jesus’ loving majesty like a child in a father’s comforting arms. Propelled by delicate piano, the song builds in intensity from a whispery open to a pounding apex, and then cools down with a delicate coda.
Quite an auspicious debut for the young man, who each summer returns to his home church, Union Missionary Baptist Church in Lansing, Michigan (Dr. Melvin T. Jones, pastor), to run the Youth Conference.

I am not one for gospel, and definitely not your traditional gospel that you hear every Sunday. This young guy brings something different…I am very interested in following his career.
