If you want that good ol’ down home gospel, you know what I’m talkin’ bout’. Look no further because Shirley Caesar’s got all that and more on her new CD Entitled, “After 40 Years….Still Sweeping Through The City”.

If you need to take a break from the norm and want to get back to the “REAL” back in the day gospel! Then this CD is for you!

Her songs will sweep you into them good old days when you use to go to church with your grandmother and you have to keep still and be quiet or else! Then, when the choir starts, she would jump up and grab you to sing and praise the lord, not knowing that you were already up singing and clapping to the gospel. Well, that’s what is was like for me. Maybe some of you can relate, but in a different way.  However, it’s all the same when it comes to the gospel and praising the Lord.

Shirley Caesar has been called a Living Legend.  But first and foremost, she is a woman of God. She serves him endlessly with a whole heart.  Her journey in music and ministry has been a long one.  Her music has ministered to so many people throughout the years that her testimonies are endless.

She starts by taking you on the high road with Sweeping Through The City.  She gets you all riled up making you say Jesus, I Love Calling Your Name, you stumble and have to find another means of transportation.  You cry out, Lord please Hold My Mule because I know there is Peace In The Midst Of The Storm.  You will Never lose your faith with this CD because if you Choose Ye This Day and Praise Your Way Through, the Lord will pour down blessings upon you.  You will never find a Faded Rose in his kingdom. It is filled with beautiful vibrant colors.  He’s always there to comfort and lift you up.  He’ll Do It Again and again because He’s Got It All In Control.  And if that’s not enough, just check under The Old Apple Tree. You’ll find forgiveness, stillness, joy, peace and understanding.

You’ll always find what you’re looking for when you look in the right place! Thank You Ms Caesar!!
