Sandra Crouch

b. 1942 Hymnal Number: 180 Author of "Completely Yes" in Zion still Sings Sandra is a co-pastor along with her brother at the Christ Memorial Church. She won a Grammy Award in 1985 for "Best Soul Gospel Performance, Female". During the late 1960s through the early 1970s, she played tambourine on a number of Motown recording sessions. She sang the lead in gospel mega-hit "God Is Trying To Tell You Something," written by Quincy Jones, with her brother Andraé Crouch and Bill Maxwell. The song was part of the soundtrack, "The Color Purple." She is also an accomplished drummer, gospel performer and songwriter. Sandra would often address the public for Andrae growing up, due to his severe stuttering. Andraé says,” his sister understands him the best of anyone he knows.” Her constant source of encouragement has been an inspiration to him throughout his career. At the age of 15, Andraé wrote the lyrics for "The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power." He considered the quality poor and threw it into the trash. Sandra disagreed; she salvaged the lyrics from the trash. The song went on to become one of Andrae’s most popular songs to this day. --www.cbn.com/700club/guests/bios/
