{"product_id":"the_gospel_collection","title":"The Gospel Collection","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Gospel Collection is a 2010 compilation that gathers 18 Dolly Parton recordings centered on Christian faith, spiritual reflection, and the gospel traditions that surrounded her Appalachian upbringing. Rather than a newly recorded studio album, it brings together material from different periods of her career, beginning with “God’s Coloring Book,” “Sacred Memories,” “Comin’ for to Carry Me Home,” “How Great Thou Art,” and “Golden Streets of Glory.” The selections draw on country gospel, hymns, traditional spirituals, and personal songs of testimony, placing Parton’s bright, emotionally direct vocal style in a devotional setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compilation also shows how closely faith and family run through Parton’s songwriting. It includes “Daddy Was an Old Time Preacher Man,” her 1970 duet with Porter Wagoner, as well as “The Seeker,” “Would You Know Him (If You Saw Him),” “Wings of a Dove,” “Letter to Heaven,” and “Yes I See God.” Together, the songs balance reverence with the accessible warmth of country music, often treating faith as something lived through family memories, hardship, community, and hope rather than as abstraction. The Gospel Collection offers a focused view of one of the enduring foundations of Parton’s work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Album","offer_id":53959095255354,"sku":"39829","price":10.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-08-25_at_5.35.59_PM.jpeg?v=1787694223","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/the_gospel_collection","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
