Review by Yannick De Pauw

Lift The Savior Up In The Hands Of The Lord: A Raw, Soul-Stirring Gospel Gem Man, if you’ve never heard Lift The Savior Up In The Hands Of The Lord by The Five Blind Boys (Jackson Harmoneers), you’re missing out on something special. This 1965 gospel funk masterpiece from Peacock Records doesn’t just play—it preaches. It’s like the music grabs your soul and shakes it awake. And trust me, once you hear it, you don’t forget. Let’s talk about “Lift The Savior Up,” the title track. Oh boy, this one hits hard. From the first note, it’s clear these guys weren’t messing around. The harmonies? Tighter than a drum. But what really gets me is the raw energy. You can feel their faith bursting through every word. It’s not perfect or polished—it’s real. Like they’re standing right there in front of you, pouring their hearts out. When that chorus kicks in, I swear, it feels like the roof should lift off. It’s the kind of song that makes you wanna shout, even if you’re sitting alone in your car. Then there’s “In The Hands Of The Lord.” This one sneaks up on you. At first, it’s all smooth and steady, but then BAM—the vocals hit you like a ton of bricks. There’s this moment where everything seems to pause, and all you hear are those voices blending together so perfectly it gives you goosebumps. It’s not flashy or overdone; it’s just... pure. Pure emotion, pure belief. By the end, you’re left thinking, “Wow, did I just witness something holy?” What’s wild about this album is how timeless it feels. Sure, it came out in ’65, but the passion and power still slap today. Listening to it reminds me why gospel music matters—it’s not just singing; it’s survival, hope, joy, pain—all rolled into one. These blind boys didn’t need sight to see the truth, and they didn’t need fancy tricks to make you believe it either. Here’s the kicker though—this record wasn’t made for fame or money. It was made because they had no choice but to sing. That’s rare nowadays. Makes you wonder: How many artists today could pull off something this honest without overthinking it? So yeah, go listen to Lift The Savior Up In The Hands Of The Lord. Crank it loud, let it soak in, and maybe, just maybe, you’ll walk away feeling a little lighter. Or at least humming along for hours.
