Gospel Singer Timothy Wright Dies

Posted April 24, 2009 by Global Grind Staff for Global Grind Staff

The Rev. Timothy Wright, a Grammy-nominated gospel singer and composer, died Thursday at the age of 61. The singer was injured in a car accident last summer, which took the lives of his wife and grandson and put Wright on a respirator.

Wright's 1994 record, Come Thou Almighty King, recorded with the New York Fellowship Mass Choir, was on the Billboard Top 20 for gospel albums and nominated for a Grammy. He was nominated again in 1999 for Been There Done That. His best-known songs include Jesus, Jesus, Jesus; Who's on the Lord's Side; and You Must Come In at the Door. (Entertainment Weekly)
