Little Richard recorded this gospel album in 1959, after his religious conversion and abandonment of rock and roll. It was released in 1960 by Goldisc Records, a label specializing in spiritual music.
The album includes versions of traditional hymns and gospel songs, featuring Richard's characteristic vocal style. Production was handled by Bumps Blackwell, who also worked on his secular hits.
Although it did not reach major sales charts, the album reflects the artist's deep faith during his period away from popular music. It is considered an important piece in his religious discography.
