HALLELUJAH CHORUS, GOSPEL STYLE
I’ve gotten into an email correspondence with someone who loves Gospel music, on which I am fairly uninformed, but anyway I love the Hallelujah Chorus and got to wondering how it would sound Gospel style. so I put it into Google and found references to a couple of performances along this line, but it didn’t show any evidence of recordings of these renditions being available*, so if any anyone has any comments on this subject, don’t hold back!
*I must admit I didn’t scrutinize all million Google hits.

I was lucky enough to catch a terrific gospel version of Hallelujah Chorus on a local radio station playing gobs of Christmas music. It is:
Handel’s Messiah: A Soulful Celebration
