In his self-written and self-produced toe-tapper, Arthur Roland recounts a list of frustrations common to mankind—hard times, failed plans, and bad news. Then, he urges, “Turn ya life over to Jesus; let Him work on you!”
“Let Him Work on You” is from Roland’s CD Stepping Out of Myself, inspired by the Michael Brown incident.
In 2014, Roland, a 30-year industry veteran, was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame as a member of Lucille Pope and the Pearly Gates.
