(July 7, 2006)--A pioneer of contemporary Christian music, Andrae Crouch, will receive the International Worship Institute's Cherub Award Friday evening in Grapevine.

Past winners include prolific gospel songwriters Bill and Gloria Gaither.

In the 1970's, Andrae Crouch and the Disciples recorded songs he wrote that have entered today's hymnbooks, including "Through It All," "To God Be The Glory" and "Bless His Holy Name." Other Andrae Crouch classics include "Soon And Very Soon" and "The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power."

Sunday, Crouch is to perform a medley of his songs at the Franklin Graham Festival in Baltimore, sharing a stage with evangelist Billy Graham.

The 64-year-old Crouch now pastors the California church founded by his parents.
