Yall will never guess who this is!  This is Thomas A Dorsey, aka The Father of Gospel Music. This is a picture of him in his younger days, before he became 'saved.' Dorsey is also known for writing Precious Lord, a favorite of Dr. Martin Luther King. Dr. King loved to hear Mahalia Jackson sing this song! As a matter of fact, it was one of his last requests before he was assasinated.  |

Yes, I read that Tom Dorsey started out as Blues singer, going by the name "Georgia Tom". I wonder what triggered his conversion to write & sing Godly music?  |

Thomas Dorsey was said to have a string of bad experiences and he told the Lord that if he ever got out of the messes, he would dedicate his life to writing gospel music. He came from a very religious family...father was a preacher.
