Songs exhibit influences from traditional African and slave music, presenting deeper lyrical meanings about the role of Africans in America throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Many songs feature audience involvement and vocal improvisations performed by a variety of age groups. Liner notes include a brief history of black religious music in America, as well as complete song texts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Sweet Jesus \u003cbr\u003e1.2 New Born Soul \u003cbr\u003e1.3 The Lord Is Blessing Me Right Now \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Jesus, I'm Thankful or I'm Thankful Lord \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Looking for a Home \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Sometimes I Fell Like a Motherless Child \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Balm in Gilead \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Steal Away to Jesus \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Precious Lord, Take My Hand \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Something Within \u003cbr\u003e1.11 My Father Watches Over Me \u003cbr\u003e1.12 I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Come and Go with Me to My Father's House\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Various Artists","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32432373760071,"sku":"16937642","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/1505639.jpg?v=1747362130","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/various-artists-black-american-religious-various","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
