Details

Description

This is a lyric video cover of "In My Father's House (Are Many Mansions)". The song has been recorded by Elvis, The Blackwood Brothers, Moe Bandy and a host of other Gospel and Country artists.

Written by a blind singer, Aileen Hanks, “In My Father’s House” is a spiritual song referring to the King James Version of the Bible. In verse John 14:2, it says, “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”

It was originally recorded in 1954 by the American southern gospel quartet Blackwood Brothers, making it one of the only two songs the group recorded between 1953 and 1956. The other was “I Have But One Goal.”

Six years later, the King of Rock n’ Roll recorded a slower version and released it off his 1960 album His Hand in Mine. Ever since then, “In My Father’s House” has become one of America’s gospel favorites.
