Today on Gospel Greats,Cassietta George - Walk Around Heaven. The song goes something like this ..(singing). … That’s kind of the way Cassietta would sing it.

She was a gospel vocalist, and composer for many of the songs sung by The Caravans. George was a member of Queen of Gospel Albertina Walker's The Caravans, the most popular touring gospel group from the late 1950s to the mid-1960s. She later launched a successful solo career, recording over 16 albums in Los Angeles for Audio Arts Inc. Along the way, George wrote over a hundred songs, and was twice nominated for a Grammy in 1969 & 1979, for Best Soul Gospel Performance. In 2017, she was inducted into the Memphis Music Hall of Fame.

Walk Around Heaven is a song released in 1964. Cassietta George sang it in the most beautiful way. It’s just one of the songs I remember hearing most by her.
