It's genuine. There's a quality of joy, and, just as important, a quality of grace running through both sides. "Whispering Hope," "Let Me Live," "The Church in the Wildwood"... Charley gives us an order of worship we can all be grateful for. On Sunday. Any day. Charley Pride sings it straight. "Did You Think to Pray" LSP-4513, P8S-1723, PK-1723
