lyrics
Known only to him are the great hidden
secrets
I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to Him
In this world of fear and doubt
On my knees I ask the question
Why a lonely, heavy cross I must bear
Then he tells me in my prayer
It's because I am trustworthy
He gives me strength far more than my share
Known only to him are the great hidden secrets
I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to him
I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to Him
In this world of fear and doubt
On my knees I ask the question
Why a lonely, heavy cross I must bear
Then he tells me in my prayer
It's because I am trustworthy
He gives me strength far more than my share
Known only to him are the great hidden secrets
I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to him
Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977), often known
simply as Elvis and also called "The King of Rock 'n'
Roll" or simply "The King", was an American singer and actor. He is regarded
by some to be the most important, original entertainer of the last fifty years
and there is little doubt that Presley is the most talked about and written
about musician of the 20th Century. (Presley's birth certificate uses the
spelling Aron, but his estate has designated Aaron as
the official spelling of his middle name.)
Presley
started as a singer of rockabilly, singing many songs from rhythm
and blues, gospel and country.
He was first billed as "The Hilbilly Cat". His
combination of country music with bluesy vocals and a strong back beat marked
a clear path toward rock & roll. He was the most commercially
successful singer of rock and roll, but he also had success with ballads, country,
gospel, blues, pop, folk and even semi-operatic and jazz standards. His voice,
which developed into many voices as his career progressed, had always a unique
tonality and an extraordinary unusual center of gravity, leading to his ability
to tackle a range of songs and melodies which would be nearly impossible for
most other popular singers to achieve. In a musical career of over two decades,
Presley set many records, such as concert attendance, television ratings, and
records sales, and became one of the best-selling artists in music history.
He
is an icon of
modern American pop culture. In the late 1960s, Presley re-emerged as a
live performer of old and new hit songs, both on tour and in Las
Vegas, Nevada, where he was known for his on-stage highly energetic
performances both vocally and physically, his sartorial jump-suits and capes
adding to the drama. He attracted massive attendance figures. His concert
performances were staggering in quantity, considering they numbered over 1,100
in 8 years. He continued to perform before sell-out audiences around the U.S.
until his death in 1977.[1][2][3] His
death was premature at 42, despite alarming concerns about his health. When he
died on August
16, 1977, it
was a huge shock to his fans. However, it soon became clear that a combination
of over-work, obesity, depression, bad diet and severe abuse of prescription
drugs, accelerated his premature departure. However, much confusion, conflict,
contradictions and general controversy still surrounds his death. Regardless,
his popularity as a singer has survived his death.
