Stand Up for Jesus - song and lyrics by Carlene Davis - Spotify
The track is a reggae-infused rendition of the classic American hymn written by George Duffield Jr. in 1858. Duffield was inspired by the final words of Rev. Dudley Tyng, a preacher and abolitionist who, following a tragic accident, told his colleagues: "Tell them, 'Let us all stand up for Jesus'".
The song features a high-energy tempo (approx. 196 BPM) that maintains the "martial" feel of the original hymn while incorporating reggae bass lines and brass arrangements by Dean Fraser .
