Do You Have a Favorite?

In studying different Southern Gospel blogs and writers - there has been plenty to say about McGruder music. It's almost humorous at times to read some of the attempts to describe the music that was given to us by the McGruders. They didn't fit the mold of any other group that had ever hit the stage, and truthfully, allowed some people to enter realms of spirituality that they either had never experienced or never knew it existed. I have found myself smiling more than once at the attempts of explanations given to the "McGruder style." Of course there's usually always the mention of the talents of the unbelievably awesome band during their live recordings.

Instead of attempting to understand the music, it is much better to experience the music. There have been multiple occasions in life's battles, that the gift of a song has offered strength and began the march to victory. For my own experiences, most of those songs have involved the voice of Priscilla McGruder. As much as I love some of their most famous songs, such as "Going Home with Jesus," "Warmin' Up," "Saved by Grace," "Way too Close," "To Me He's Become Everything"......and the list goes on and on, I have a list of personal favorites that have ministered to me and have become "my song" in the wee hours of the morning when peace wanted to evade me.

Even with the talk about all of the great songs listed above, there are many songs that are on my list of personal favorites and I feel sure are on the list of other fans as favorites. The songs that cross my mind along this line are, "Most of All," "From Heaven's Point of View," "Stand on the Word," "We Have a Savior," "One Prayer Away," "Jesus Please Touch Me Again," "Vessel of Honor," "His Grace is Sufficient," "My Faith Stands Firm," "Devil, You Can't Have my Faith," "Since He Gave My Life a New Start," "Heaven Too," "Change Me Lord," "Under the Blood, You'll Get Over the Storm," "The Finish Line,""The Lamb is No Stanger," "I've Made Up My Mind," "A Great Homecoming," "God's Word Cannot Fail," "Grace For the Race," "Certain Feeling," and I could go on and on. And I still haven't covered all of my favorites.......
