“He Steps In”
Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church Mass Choir
From the CD Oh To Be Kept By Jesus (Anniversary Edition)
If you like gospel choir singing like it was done in the 1980s, you will love the Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church Mass Choir’s new single, “He Steps In.”
This Houston church, where Dr. Marcus Cosby is pastor and the late Hanq Neal was music minister, channels the super-charged, hand-clapping effervescence of classic late twentieth-century gospel choruses such as the Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church Choir, the Cosmopolitan Church of Prayer Choir, Christian Tabernacle Concert Choir, Keith Pringle’s ensembles, and a whole handful of East Coast roof raisers.
Hey. . . maybe the church choir IS back!
