Chorus: Thank you Candi Staton
for all------ your great songs.

Candi, I don't judge what you sing
And I love all the songs that you sing.
Some songs taught me love and life
And some songs taught me about Jesus Christ.

Announcer: Candi Staton started performing in the 1950's. She is a soul and gospel singer with hit songs like, "Young Hearts Run Free", which reached #1 on the U.S. R&B charts. It was a disco song released in 1976. There was a good message in that song. It helped me to think twice when I was just a teenage girl.

Candi made a lot of great R&B songs, but most of all, she also made great gospel songs. Gospel songs like "God Can Make Something Out of Nothing". The title of that song speaks loud for itself. A very true song. It was a song that helped me to think better about myself in God. I remember Candi singing that song in the 80's.

I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you Candi Staton. Just hearing you sing has been a blessing in my life. There is no category. I was told good things hearing your songs tell stories.

Chorus: Thank you Candi Staton for all your great songs.
