Grin and Bear It

Today’s a twofer day.  The first song is from one of my favorite old school gospel choir directors, Rev. Clay Evans, who is working with the Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church Choir.  As I listened to this great traditional song I couldn’t help but think about Hezekiah Walker & Love Fellowship Community Choir’s song “He Knows How Much We Can Bear”.  Although I’ve posted the Hezekiah song before, this is a great LIVE performance of the song.  I LOVE all the modulation in the vamp and how the sopranos and altos each take a word of the lyrics of the vamp (“How much…how much we…we can bear…we can bear”). Listen when they go acapella…with bass… at 3:02.
