"Jesus Is Coming Soon" is a gospel song composed by R. E. Winsett, most likely in the earliest years of the 20th century.〔Winsett's first collection of songs, ''Winsett's Favorite Songs'', was published in 1903; the song was recorded by Blind Willie Johnson in 1928.〕 The song was recorded by Blind Willie Johnson in gospel blues style in 1928, with an uncredited backing vocalist; who may have been Willie B. Harris, by some accounts his first wife, who is known to have appeared on some of his later recordings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Blind Willie Johnson discography )〕 The song has become a country music standard, as evidenced by its recording history. It was awarded the title "Song of the Year" in 1969 at the 1st GMA Dove Awards. The subject-matter of the song is that of many American religious songs: the Second Coming of Jesus Christ may happen at any time, so be prepared for it! == Recordings == The following are recordings by other notable artists: * 1928Blind Willie Johnson * 1965Kitty Wells, on the album ''The Kitty Wells Family Gospel Sing'', on which the song is attributed to Bill Phillips * 1968The Inspirations * 196979The Oak Ridge Boys * 1975"We've Been Told (Jesus Is Coming Soon)" by Eric Clapton, on the album ''There's One in Every Crowd'' * 1990Glenn Kaiser and Darrell Mansfield, on the album ''Trimmed and Burnin * 1990The Dixie Hummingbirds, on the album ''Mama''; their version of the song is attributed to Ira Tucker * 1993(?)Bill and Gloria Gaither 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jesus Is Coming Soon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
