"GOSPEL SONGS BY CLIFF RICHARD.
...He sang two Gospel songs and said he was very new to Christianity.
Clliff...told the audience yesterday: "A a Christian I feel it my duty to take every opportunity to profess I am a Christian and that I personally was saved by Jesus Christ.
"It is so easy to make the initial step. It is what followes that is not so easy." He was he confessed, still terrified to appear on a platform.
The meeting began with a moment's silent prayer for the Aberfan school disaster."
(The Daily Telegraph, 23 October 1966)
