Howdy, ya'll! Join us as we travel South to explore an incredible collection of Southern Gospel worship favorites! Southern Gospel has a rich tradition and is perhaps the only genre of music that is defined more by its message than by its style. The following songs deliver a strong Gospel message and draw our attention to Jesus, the anchor of our souls.

If Southern Gospel is your "thang," you'll enjoy the twang! If it's not, we'd still encourage you to give these songs a listen...they might just change your mind. There are more likely than not some folks in your church who are fans of Southern Gospel music, and they'll be blessed by these timeless favorites that sing of our Redeemer and the life-changing power of His love.

With arrangements and collaborations by Gordon Mote and Gold City, Wayne Haun, Dino Ascari, Dennis Allen, and others, you'll find an amazing collection of
SATB, 3-part, and solo arrangements that proclaim our Savior's love and testify to God's grace on our lives.

Take a few moments to listen and consider adding some of these songs to your times of worship. They'll add some sweet tea to your Sunday services...and they will bless your heart!
