 Every song should carry a message, and the only difference between the gospel message as preached by the evangelist and as sung by the singer, is the vehicle in which it is carried to the nearer.
 The gospel singers task is not an easy one, since he has only five or six minutes for the work of preparing the ground for the seed of the Word.
