Elvis Presley-Take Me Home,Precious Lord-with Lyrics

Elvis Presley singing Take Me Home, Precious Lord. Written by the Rev. Thomas A. Dorsey. Elvis had promised his mother Gladys that he would sing" Peace in the Valley" for her on his January 6, 1957 appearance on the Ed Sullivan show. Gordon Stoker of The Jordanaires tells how the producers did not want the young rebel rocker to sing a gospel song, but Elvis insisted. A week later on January 13, 1957, Elvis recorded the song at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, accompanied by Scotty Moore (lead guitar), Bill Black (bass), D. J. Fontana (drums) and The Jordanaires (backing vocals), with Gordon Stoker playing piano.

That same day Elvis also recorded another Dorsey song, "Take My Hand, Precious Lord". Dorsey wrote it in 1932 in an attempt to ease his overwhelming grief after the death of his first wife and child in childbirth. Mr. Dorsey recorded the song himself in 1939.
