If We Never Meet Again (1960)

“If We Never Meet Again” is a gospel song that was written and originally recorded by Albert E. Brumley in 1945. However, the song is perhaps best known for Elvis Presley’s 1960 rendition, which appeared on his album “Elvis Is Back!”

The song features Presley’s signature baritone voice and a simple arrangement, with just a piano and background vocals. The lyrics speak of the uncertainty of life and the hope of meeting again in heaven.

The song was recorded during a time when Presley was returning to music after serving in the Army, and it was part of his effort to reconnect with his roots in gospel music. The song reflects Presley’s deep religious convictions and his desire to share that faith through his music.

Overall, “If We Never Meet Again” is a powerful and moving song that showcases Elvis Presley’s unique vocal talent and his ability to convey deep emotion through his music. It remains a beloved classic in the Elvis Presley discography and a testament to his enduring legacy as one of the greatest musicians of all time.
