Another original composition by Doris, from her 1960 album, "Doris Akers Sings". I love this one, so catchy!
There's honey in that Rock there for me
There's honey in that Rock there for me
Honey in that Rock and to all the world its free
Honey in that Rock, there for me!

The bees live on honey from the honeycomb
You should taste the sweetness to the Rock you ought to run
Honey in the Rock is good for me and I know that
Honey from the Rock will feed your soul

I know that He's the Rock for a troubled mind
Let me lead you to the Rock and I know that you will find
That its sweeter than the berry that is picked from the vine
Honey in that Rock and its yours and mine!

  • I love her music. She was so talented and such a blessing everytime she sang.

  • This is a good song she has a lovely voice. It is very rare to have singers with natural talent like this, her voice sounds calming and also catchy at the same time.

  • So interesting - Doris Akers was one of the few Black Gospel artists whose songs crossed over into Southern/White Gospel - witness the Gaither videos she guests in. Her songs are still touching and blessing people!

  • Honey In That Rock is another song that really shines. Ever since I first heard this song, it has constantly been in my head! This is my favorite version, due to its fast pace/tempo, which is far more upbeat than the other version I heard. I completely agree with gospelthang's comment, this is a wonderful song!

  • when I hear Doris singing, I hear someone who was so full of God's love and Gods spirit  that its just is so overwhelming. Her lyrics are so easy to understand, but at the same time so powerful that it consumes our souls.

    God Bless!

  • Her beautiful voice is like honey!

    My Sweet Aunt Doris
