The rousing traditional gospel tune (Let the light from the Lighthouse) "Shine on Me" was written by Blind Willie Johnson. Performed live in service by the Immanuel Baptist Church Choir in Portland, Maine with soloist William Rayne; arranged for SATB chorus by American composer, Aaron Robinson (pianist)
I agree - but sadly there is no existing video footage of the IBC Gospel Choir performing in a Sunday morning worship, only audio. Although there are literally hundreds of recordings. Good News! You can, however, watch clips from the documentary that was made of their Gospel Celebration "Black Nativity - In Concert" - just type in Black Nativity and Aaron Robinson - or - Immanuel Baptist Church. You'll really see a great choir performing! Enjoy!

A good straight forward version of this song. I liked it a lot. I would like to see the choir as they sang this song.
