LOS ANGELES – Andrae Crouch, a legendary gospel performer, songwriter and choir director whose work graced songs by Michael Jackson and Madonna and movies such as "The Lion King," has died. He was 72.

 

Crouch died Thursday afternoon at Northridge Hospital Medical Center, where he had been admitted Saturday after suffering a heart attack, said his publicist, Brian Mayes.

 

Crouch and his sister, Sandra Crouch, lived in the Pacoima area of Los Angeles, Mayes said. They were pastors at the New Christ Memorial Church in the Los Angeles suburb of San Fernando.

 

Born in San Francisco, Crouch wrote his first gospel tune at age 14.

He's seeing the King!

No more dying there.

No more crying there.

cause through it all he learned to trust in Jesus and Jesus has washed his sins away and called him by name.
