Elvis Presley’s Heavenly Rendition of “His Hand in Mine”

“His Hand in Mine” is a gospel song that was recorded by Elvis Presley in 1960. The song was written by Mosie Lister, a prominent gospel songwriter, and it was included on Elvis’ first full-length gospel album, also titled “His Hand in Mine.”

The lyrics of the song speak to the comfort and security that can be found in faith and the belief in a higher power. The chorus of the song includes the following lines:

“His hand in mine, I’m walkin’ in sunshine,
I’m walkin’ in sunshine, oh, glorious day.
His hand in mine, I’m walkin’ in sunshine,
I’m walkin’ in sunshine, and I’m feelin’ fine.”

Elvis’ version of the song is notable for its simple, stripped-down arrangement, with just a piano and a small group of backup singers accompanying Elvis’ soulful vocals. The song reflects Elvis’ deep love for gospel music and his belief in its power to uplift and inspire people.

Elvis’ gospel recordings have become an important part of his legacy, and they continue to be celebrated by fans around the world. “His Hand in Mine” is a testament to Elvis’ immense talent and his enduring impact on popular music and culture.
