A classic church hymn that will bring you thru those hard times. It’s been sung by some of the greatest gospel artist in history. Kelly put it down on this, (A Cappella style) Composer: Thomas A. Dorsey, 1932 Dorsey wrote this song in Chicago, Illinois, after his wife Nettie died while giving birth to a child (who also died shortly thereafter).
