“Not Guilty”
Darlene McCoy
Standing at the precipice of eternity, with a “list a mile long of all my sins,” Darlene McCoy knows this is it.  Nowhere to hide anymore.  She wonders what He is going to say.  
She gets a pleasant surprise with the verdict: “Not guilty.”  Jesus already paid her fare to enter the golden gates.
This lovely inspirational ballad has solid song structure and benefits from a dramatic and passionate reading by McCoy.  When she sings, “The tears well up as I look at that cross, because it should have been me,” you feel her devout gratitude for God’s goodness.
Darlene McCoy is a gospel singer and radio host for Atlanta’s Inspiration Station Praise 102.5.
