  • I don't know why this clip don't have the whole song the next part he's shining is the best part of the song.

  • Where is the full version of this rendition? I WANT IT. LORD KNOWS WE GOT TO HEAR IT. I wish I was there in that church when she sang this song.

  • so awesome.Aretha . i will pray everyday for you. xx

  • Praise the Lord haleluyah . Jesus is the Light of the world.

  • Help me out someone please. Is this the album produced with Thomas Whitfield?

  • Let's pray for Aretha as she has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

  • Saaang Retha!!!

  • Sang retha!!

  • I walk in the Light as the Lord Is my Shephard.

  • talk about a song that can make you cry....i was listenin on the way to work one mornin and had to pull over and go back home i couldnt stop cryin!!!!!!!!!

  • 1 Lord, 1 Faith, & 1 Baptism = the mystery of Holiness (revealed)

  • @comiccalk i was wondering if there is a way i can get any of Aretha's gospel concerts like this one on dvd? Any info i would appreciate it thanks so much!

  • WORK IT ! RIP IT. SANG GIRL!!! i purchase a lot of my music on malaco.com

  • this is why she is the queen ! she does things with her voice that no one can do! it's not about hitting high and loud notes, its the subtle things that she does that set her apart has the top diva ever! Her voice is not even like it used to be but being a true diva it doesn't make any difference! she will kill any song, any time, and any place!

  • He is the light of the World. I played this many times in my life, and the last was on Hammond Organ at Bebee Memorial church in Oakland California .

    I hear there is a video of this performance somewhere. Aretha recorded one of my songs for an HBO series, but after 2 takes she had one of her Diva moments and walked out of the studio, and it was never released.

  • check out rev jimmyrogers. on youtube, he's awesome!

  • Detroit....Thomas Whitfield....Aretha.....nuff said

  • We used to sing this years ago at Price Memorial A.M.E. Zion Church in Atlantic City NJ, sometimes we sang it faster! I love this!

  • Not sure why they fade out right in the heart of the bridge, but, to sell records? maybe: still, the genius of the Black Gospel call&response and Aretha's magical phrasing throughout, oh, wish I had been there. 22 yrs. ago: youtube is so cool, we get to hear it all once again, in a different world, now. But one thing is still the same: Jesus is still the Light of the World. thanks for whoever posted this. Will subscribe to this channel for sure.

  • This was the introduction to a candlelight service. The choir was processing into the sanctuary of the church from the back, holding candles and singing. Very dramatic and inspiring.

  • If you type in Antonio Clark & New Mercy. There out of Detroit, they sung this version w/o the soloist, but killed it.

  • I wish you could post the rest of the song. This is a classic.

  • i hope there is a longer version!! i would buy it today!! I love this song!!

  • I SURE Wish that they had FINISHED this, recording-wise, I mean! I KNOW they did at the church!!!!  heh heh! I've ALWAYS wanted to HEAR the culmination! Maybe someday.........it may leak out somewhere!

  • Aretha was serious on this one...She did this.

  • wow this took me back in the day , My daddy use to sing in a choir at church and I can hear them singing and marching in on this song,,,,,,, it was g

  • We "STILL" March In on this song! smile.

    Isn't that somethin'? I had to laugh about that when you recalled it from back in the day!

    Bless.......

  • I mean this song goes way back, I say that because I'm 57 yrs old , but that's a powerful song,,,

    take care

  • Tha's so cool! And it's so good to know too!  I appreciate it and you!

    Thanks and more blessings!

  • OMG I was three years old when I first heard this song in Hartford CT. This bring back so many good memories 4 me. Thank u for this clip.

  • I know Aretha has made some great secular hits but Gospel is her signature I don't care what nobody says. That's her roots & what I like abt her she'll tell u that's where she started & continues to be rooted & grounded. It's just in her. Praise Him!!

  • Aretha has never performed a Concert that I've attended where she did not sing at least 2 gospel songs, generally at the ending. I used to attend her father's Revivals as a young teen when living in Detroit, MI many years ago. :-)

  • " Walk where the deeew-eew-eeew-eeeeew-eeeeew drops of mercy shine bright! "

    Rev Re flaws me with that choice.

    Thankya. xxxxxx

  • ditto. Wisdom & wit, your posts contains. I enjoy reading.

  • Thanks for the comment on my other video. I have to give a big thanks to you, because this video inspired me to buy the entire album off of itunes and listen to it more thoroughly. I had only had a few of the mp3's before this.

  • kindred souls, bro. We Re fans think alike. glad I could help. peace.

  • This was a great album. I LOVE this track. Keep praying for The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin and people in general. Praise God. All hail King Jesus.

  • Aretha, in my opinion, sounds better singing Gospel and not her current genre of music...However, Jesus is indeed the light of the world...

  • my mother used to have this tape. i don't know whatever happened to it.

  • Walking in the Light is the best place to be.

  • this was the first gospel song i ever owned on tape deck....I was about 5 or 6 and played this song over and over....you have no idea how much this brings back...thanks for posting this :)

  • wow huh LOL . chck out my profile for more vids.
