PUT YOUR SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL | BROTHER SWID SWANK

In the vibrant era of the 1970s, Brother Swid Swank emerged as a beacon of soulful rhythm and spiritual fervor. Born with a bassline in his soul and a testimony that shone brighter than a disco ball, Swid's journey to musical ministry began in the most unexpected way. While adjusting a disco ball at a church dance, a cascade of shimmering light ignited a vision: the fusion of gospel truths with the infectious grooves of funk music. This epiphany led to the creation of his rendition of "Put Your Shoulder to the Wheel," a track that transforms traditional hymnody into a danceable call to divine service.

Swid's daily life became a testament to this harmonious blend. He was known to moonwalk to the mailbox, infusing every mundane task with joyous rhythm, and two-step through temple service, embodying the belief that worship and work are best performed with soulful enthusiasm. His music, characterized by groovy basslines and spirited melodies, serves as an invitation to all: embrace the Lord's work with a heart full of song and a body ready to groove.

Through his unique ministry, Brother Swid Swank redefined the act of service, illustrating that fulfilling God's work can be both a solemn duty and a joyous dance. His legacy continues to inspire, reminding us that when we "put our shoulder to the wheel," we should do so with unwavering faith and a funky beat.
