Vickie Winans "Precious Lord"

[Mokiller1979]

Lord, i miss me some good ol' church!!! i was raised in it and this SPECTACULAR perfomance reminds me EVERYDAY why i love the Lord!!! thank u Jesus for Vickie Winans!!!

[K0961]

check out Vickie singing it live a few days ago she tore it up its her sounding like the old vickie everybody has been missing high notes squalls growls u gotta see it

[letsdance1978]

This is my most favorite version of this song! Vickie rearranged it and made it HER song!! I love it! I think this was back in the 90's when she was obliviously much heavier and younger! This was the old gospel! She looks & sings like a different person now, but that's alright, I still like her! 

[krichard120]

Y AUNTY I FOROT U WAS WAS SO VOCAL BACK THEN

[Indigo5433]

This is exactly why I am her #1 fan. The woman don't play with any song she SANG!

[OneTrillNigga07]

sing Queen Vickie!

[jmotley120]

this is my daddy's favorite song. R.I.P Daddy 5/20/58 - 12/3/08. I love you and I miss you very much. everytime I heard someone sing this song I cry really bad.

[themostdesire]

Vickie on mission

not yours are even mines. her music change to reach the audience who typically do not know Christ and probably wouldn't every get the message he can save anybody. She extend her message to young people, cant fault her for that now can we?

[optimistic719]

@themostdesire, very well said!

[shieldsff]

since Pres. Obama is so outraged over "faux" homophobia in [the] Black community & Black churches, why does he so ardently seek and assume their electoral support on every opportunity ? Since it outrages him so, perhaps in order to allow him to maintain his character & integrity, the "Black Community" should offer it's objectionable, homophobic support to a more reasonable and balanced candidate come 2012- just a very short time from now ! Is there any other group he snubs more than Blacks ??

[determination9995757]

VICKIE WENT ON IN AT 4:19. GONE HEAD VICKI, SANG TO THE GLORY OF jESUS.!!!!!

[Tzhipporaha]

I met her when I was a little girl and she spoke the word of the Lord to me. I was a kid lost in the foster system and no one beleived in me, not even my foster family. I made good grades, but I was so rejected, abused (mentally and physcially), but GOD healed me up and now he is using me to help those that came up the way I did. Thank you JESUS for the people of the MOST HIGH GOD that WILLINGLY walk in OBEDIENCE to Gods will for their life.

[buzzkillingtonrules]

Yes, and Mahalia is the baddest black lady on the other side of Jordan!

[grannys437]

I love Vickie! she is so anointed

[ICANDIGUOUT]

bless him vickie!

[jhstiger]

I would love to hear Patti Labelle sing this

[MultiFreedomofspeech]

@jhstiger i cut off my right arm to hear that

[timsht]

Wow!! Beasting like no other!

[zivaray]

Vickie looks just like Martha Wash on this video. Since this vid, she's lost lots of weight. YEAH!!!

[jtizzle369]

4:20 .... GET IT VICKIE! GO HEAD GIRL! i love me some vickie! 4:36 hahahah YES!

[determination9995757]

Yes Lord!!!!!!!

[qwerty35313]

I'm reading some of these commentz and I am so glad Vickie is not aiming to please PEOPLE anymore. As long as her ways are pleasing the Lord, that is all that really matters!

[LadeeKoko]

@qwerty35313 You can say that again! AMEN!

[optimistic719]

@LadeeKoko, its funny how ppl hate on homegirl when they have no idea what she has endured and went through, now they see the glory but dont realize that she faced things what other ppl wouldnt be able 2 handle, so i cringe when i read certain comments about her becuz i kno that she lives what she sings about!

[ICANDIGUOUT]

always loved vickie winans

[SuperJadeDragon]

Her voice is crappy now. Better than mine but it is crappy compared to what it used to be. My mom is saying maybe she was sick. I don't know. However it seems that most big people who can blow, lose weight their voices suffer. Kelly Price, Lashun Pace, Karen Clark-Sheard, Twinkie Clark to name a few. If you listen now they can still sang not like they used to. I know the whole age thing but these people's change can pinpointed to the times in their life centered around the weight and sickness

[tcvejones]

this is one of my best songs from her outside of we shall behold him and more than enough!!!!

[Lindasuzo]

SHE IS AWESOME....THEN & NOW!!!!!!!

[Stressnotic]

man that was beautiful chills is still running through my body AMEN

[KushKing99]

GAWWDDDDDDDDDDDD, She is powerful when singing this song!!

[merlino1987]

This is one of the best Gospel performance EVER!

[redbonegal]

AMEN VICKIE!!

[ATP6165]

See, I like this Vicky here. I really didnt care for her singing, but she really SANG this here. I didnt know she was heavy set at this time either, compared to now. But the singing that she does now, I jsut really dont care for. Loving this here though. Be Blessed

[crazyboy1234able]

@ATP6165 . you rite!! Back then vickie would make you cry, shout, and dance til you cant no mo!! But now its all bout the glamour to me!! Sad

[qwerty35313]

see my friend you are wrong...well maybe that's your opinion but Vickie has always liked glitz and glamour but we seem to forget about the glory on her life cause she has been from HELL TO HERE and she's not aiming to please ppl anymore.

[victate]

Amen......... Sang it vickie

[snuka12000]

SING, VICKIE, SING!!!

[SPSB00]

recious Lord, take my handLead me on, let me standI am tired, I am weak, and wornThrough the storm, through the nightLead me on to the lightTake my hand precious Lord, and lead me homeAs my way grows drearPrecious Lord linger nearWhen my life is almost goneHear my cry, hear my callHold my hand lest I fallTake my hand precious Lord, and lead me homeWhen the darkness appearsAnd the night draws nearAnd the day is past and all goneAt the river I standGuide my feet, hold my hand

[jtizzle369]

VICKIE TORE THIS SONG UP! this is the vickie i fell in love with.. this clip 4min 19sec. thru the end is DEF on fire! love it!

[ShavonnaBrooks]

Is it me, or does she look like Martha Wash on here?

[Singblkboy]

This is the old vickie I loved and now miss so much.. She still sings, but not like this anymore.. My Gawd

[Bangs09]

WHERE WAS THIS!?!?

[dfjkslsdfjkl]

[origsoulseekers1939]

AMEN!

[qwerty35313]

[MrRCollinsIII]

[012Key]

@MrRCollinsIII that vicki is still here!

[yosaysay]

She wasnt playing with that hair

[qwerty35313]

This show was recorded Nov 1994 and aired in early 1995

[degbola]

I didnt know she was that heavy.  She lost weight.

[neKadmiel]

Vickie Winans ...awesome, im my country (Brazil) we loved her....beautiful voice, she's gtreat siger!!!!

[Lukin4SumthnReal]

Vickie Winans is awesome....She now sits with the Divas of Gospel where she belonged all the time. I liked her appearance better when she was a little thicker tho... but she's still beautiful.

[frankeerazor]

I love vickie winans. Eversince i was a kid, i thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world. lol. God Bless

[2bowling]

I did too now it Dorinda Clark-Cole

[FASS52]

and titus can you give us a better video or tell us where can get it ourselves. Vickie Winans is one of the most under rated singers in the business. Adorn us with it please.

[FASS52]

Dr. MLK's favorite hymm sung by the real giant of Gospel. Who in the house? Who? the only one who can sing this just as good as Aretha. Thank you Lord.

[qwerty35313]

mac48203, is right...People are still trippin' on Vickie cause she's small again. When she started out, she was skinty. She started gaining weight in 1993 and was big up until late 1999, early 2000.

[caesar6882]

I remember this and loving it. I read in a gospel book that she was sick during this time and was on medication which made her very bloated. I just found out that she had surgery on her vocal chord. recently noticed that she had lost some of her vocal range and her voice sounds quite heavy but she`s getting older now too and age changes things but she still sounds good just different !

[Sisqo0384]

I DID NOT KNOW this lady had it like this..whew this is one of the best versions if not the best of this I've ever heard. Them Winans don't play!

[lilleys2004]

She is the baddest black lady on this side of Jordan.

[called2minister1]

I know she better saaang! My God!

[nick7477]

VICKIE RULES!!!!!!

[optimistic719]

I saw her sing one of her very old songs here in Tampa it was "Give It One More Try" she had all 3,000 people on their feet, I mean kilt the song in the same key too! And another one she sang was "Can I Build" or something like that had us ready to shout.

[Torind]

"Can I Build (My Home In You)" was is still is one of my favorite songs. People say that she can't hit the notes she used to back in the 80's & 90's, but she still has it. She never lost it.

[flashcute]

she is still bad she just has a different style now i saw her live recently and she tore oh what love up!

[bpopulus]

Vickie Winan can really sing. But She needs to stop the theatrics and Just sing.

[moneymike3223]

@bpopulus ----U must don't know Vickie... Thats just part of her ministry... She sings with her whole body lol...

[billybadass80]

I love her!

[tneal3042]

I remember this when i was twelve. Notice how when she shook that hair, not one jumped out of place. Then it looked like she wanted to do a dance towards the end, what a diva!! After hearing her sing this song, MY throat was sore, lol.

[vxzcn]

People think becuase she's smaller now that she can't do it. Newsflash! I also saw her after the weight, she still got it! Don't be fooled.

[Nunya88]

I don't doubt that she still got it after the weight loss... but I wanna hear it lol

[bradyman24]

I've also seen her many times since she lost the weight and THE GIRL COULD DEFINETLY STILL BLOW !! but u cant deny the fact that after the ulcers were removed from her throat there was definetly a voice change. that upper register was gone !! and i'm also thinking now that age might have something 2 do with it ... she is getting on up in her 50's and that means her voice is darkening .... I LOVE ME SO VICKIE !! ... and i hate 2 admit it ... but she really just cant sing like this anymore !!

[Nunya88]

I know this doesnt really have anything to do with this vid... But how bomb would Vickie... Well big Vickie have been as effie in Dreamgirls? Wow @ the thought

[Torind]

Yes... that is a true thought. She would have tore it up.

[Nunya88]

Yes yes yes... lol.

[frankeerazor]

I agree, and it would have been cool to add to the redemption if Effie Gave her life to God. Cool idea

[Nunya88]

Yea that would be bomb... if her come back was in gospel rather than secular

[andreln]

I saw vickie after she lost weight and she blew. She can still get it when she wants too. She just a little to commercial for me. I want her to do another live in detroit.

[ClevelandGuy41]

She still carries the Winans name because it gets respect, even if she doesn't reserve it!

[TRUCKIE504]

reserve it? of deserve it? There are several women that still wear their ex-husbands last names....beat it

[Blakmajik78]

CLEAR difference between big Vickie and small Vickie...I prefer Big Vickie voice without a doubt...i almost threw a shoe at my comptuer screen the way she blew this song!

[TRUCKIE504]

If you like her you like her, what does weight have to with it?

[mac48203]

well i don't know why people think Vickie was big all her life, she was only big for a few years, I remember when i was 9 and she used to be our 1st Lady, she was small like she is now, she was only big for like 5 years or so

[vxzcn]

She doesn't sound exactly like this anymore because 1. Remember she had ulcers on her vocal chords. 2. She lost about 80 pounds, with that most likely her voice would change.

[TRUCKIE504]

well put vixen, and she's older.

[nysinger516]

I love vickie with all my heart she is my inspiration, but she don't sound like this any more.

[chocolatestar72]

OMG!!! Pass me them greens. She took it home.

[Kingroe78]

Oh my goodness, this black girl sung the mess out of this song there is no one like the Joy Princess of Gospel Music , Miss Vickie Winans

[vxzcn]

Vickie married Marvin Winans in 1978 or 79. Divorced in 1995.

[musiqnatik]

And the crazy thing is, that was TWO marriages ago and she STILL carry the Winans name. I wonder how that makes husband number 3 feel.

[hlove3]

It's part of the business even though Vickie is out there enough where she can drop the Winans and just go by Vickie. Just like Tina Turner kept her name and that's not even her real name. Look how long they have been divorced. I know if it was me I would have dropped that name so quick.

[marquisj89]

sing it. love this hymn. one of my favorites. God is just precious.

[vxzcn]

Nobody matched that performance. They should've let Dottie sing "On Time God".

[vxzcn]

For those of you that don't know she had just had an divorce from Marvin Winans. So she really did really good plus she was sick this nite too!! But God took her through!!!

[hlove3]

That shows just how professional she is.  You would have never known what she was going thru by that performance. I just remember nobody touched that performance at the Stellar's that night.

[meetmac1]

How long were they married? I don't know how or why nor how preachers & those that are spiritual leaders divorce? I was shocked when Fred Hammond "THE PSALMIST" has been divorced for 2 years and STILL dating for 2 years? What gives?

[LorenaeB]

This is vickie i used to know! I didnt even know she had an ulcer that is sad to know coz she and karen could have dun a battle!!

[sivatmin]

I sooooo remember watching this when it first aired. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY OUT OF THIS WORLD!! She sang like it was her last time!!!!!

[bradyman24]

Now this is the Vickie i came to know and love so much ..... i still love her to death .....but she just doesnt sing in that upper register and with such power anymore ......wonder why ??

[hlove3]

She had an ulcer on her vocal chord and since her surgery on it she doesn't have that range anymore but she still be working it out.

[bradyman24]

OOOOOOOOOHHHH ... I didnt know that ....... well for her to have had an ulcer on her vocal cords .. SHE IS DEFINETLY STILL ON TOP !!!

[hlove3]

she normally tells her testimony about it before she sings "I Hear the Music In the Air"

[bradyman24]

Ohh yeah ... that's the song she used 2 take up 19 half steps right ?? .... I always thought that was amazing !! ... i didnt even think it was humanly possible ... and she did it with such ease !! ... but she's still an amazing singer !!!

[xjbrown14]

I remember this award ceremony, I got this on tape

[dasauce]

sang big vickie with them white stockings!!

[hlove3]

It just gets better everytime I see it. She was representin with those Wizard of Oz shoes.

[vxzcn]

@2:26-2:28 was just insane!!

[brandonelliot]

MY GOD... Now THATS the Vickie I miss!!! WOW @ that HOLLAR+them runs... She still got it 4 the most part & will take u there, but y'all know what I mean LOL... LMAO @ Karen bitin Vickies same hairstyle @ the Finally Karen Recording a few years later... OOPS, let me not go there, don wanna get stabbed LMAO

[vxzcn]

Just Imagine, what if she would've song "Stand Up And Praise Him"!!

[vxzcn]

This was at the 1995 Stellar Awards. Because the album came out in Sept.1994. I've been waiting on this, I lost my tape!!! Awesome. One of the best performances during this night, also Dorothy song "Fire" at the end and tore the house down.

[Sc0rpion]

Ok, now I see it. Thanks for posting!

[minstrelprophet]

I think this was either 95 or 96.

[dgraham81]

Vickie is my girl! She is always the same even after all she has been through, her weight loss didn't go to her head. minstrelprophet I think this was 1996 or 1997 cause the CD that, that song is on came out in 1995 I think.

[minstrelprophet]

what year was this???

[bobbyrdjr]

#1 gospel artist!

[ladyalaniz]

oooh i remember this and i had it on tape but as you know vhs doesnt hold up so well, thanks for taking me back yet again, be blessed

[bradyman24]

OMG !!! ...Please dont ever delete this !!

[hlove3]

I love it when she sings this song
