Elvis, see, could sing any song well. Like, for example, Do the Clam. And despite his fame, and fortune, he never forgot his love for the Lord. He was never ashamed to sing His praises. And as you will see in the first selection below, he had no problem singing Our Lady's praises either. A post of that video by a friend on Facebook was my wake-up call for this belated appreciation.
Was Elvis a Catholic? I don't think so. But just like he sent a letter to President Nixon, volunteering his services as a Federal Agent, maybe he sent a letter to the Pope at the same time? Only the Vatican archivists know for sure. Regardless, let me get out of Mr. Presley's way, because these songs need no introductions, and let you enjoy his gospel side.
Elvis, thanks for singing the Good News. Requiescat in Pace.
Miracle of the Rosary.
Oh Happy Day.
The Wonder of You.
He Is My Everything.
Where No One Stands Alone
Take My Hand, Precious Lord.
How Great Thou Art
