Stephani Ezatoff comes out of the Pittsburgh gospel world with a voice shaped by church music and old hymns, but this version of “Precious Lord Take My Hand” plants her right inside the classic Nashville tradition. She’s cut it with Brian Speer producing, Johnny Minick on Rhodes and Hammond B3, and a small choir of ringers behind her.
Her take leans into the hymn’s blues roots. The Rhodes lays down soft, church-basement chords, the B3 swells in and out, and the band keeps the groove slow and steady. Stephani sings it like she grew up with it, working the melody with small bends and held notes, and the backing voices lift key lines. The whole thing feels like a late-service moment: warm, nostalgic, and built around the lyric.
For sync, this version of “Precious Lord Take My Hand” fits faith-based films, period dramas, docu-series with Southern or church settings, funeral or memorial scenes, recovery arcs, and any TV or film moment that needs a grounded, traditional gospel sound with a clear, emotional lead vocal and lived faith all over it.
