Gospel week, day 2: stealin' in the name of the lord

Secular soul music often borrows pretty liberally from traditional gospel songs (e.g., "Little Walter" from "Wade in the Water", "My Babe" from "This Train", "This Little Girl of Mine" from "This Little Light of Mine", etc. etc.), but I always kind of bug when borrowing goes the other way. I mean, the 8th Commandment applies to gospel dudes, too, right?

Anyhow, these guys understood that the world needed a gospel rip-off of "Long Train Running":

As a bonus, here's their version of the aforementioned "This Little Light of Mine":
