    Red face Solved: Mahalia

    Does anyone remember which band recorded a song about Mahalia Jackson in the 80's, I think? Please put me out of my misery - afraid I can remember nowt else, just got a bit of a chorus stuck in my head.

    I found a refrence to a song called "Sometimes the Lord works mysteriously" as a remembrance of her. Could that be the one? I'm still trying to get a sample ... but from descriptions it doesn't sound like a song a band would do.

    It's from the early 70s also ...

    When Mahalia passed Pastor Benson wrote this song about her, titled, "Sometimes The Lord Works Mysteriously - In Remembrance of Mahalia Jackson". Pastor Benson had hoped one day, that Mahalia would sing the songs she was writing.

    Or perhaps "Mahalia" by The Bible?
    As far as I remember, the song was from their 1985 album "Walking the Ghost Back Home".

    Thank you so much for your responses. The one I had got stuck on was by The Bible. Can't wait to tell my work mates - been driving us mad!
    Thank you again!
