How Great Thou Art - Camp Meeting with Paul Qualls

[holinesspentecostal]

Bro. Jim, Do you have any old records of Wally and Ginger Claxon singing live at the old Nazarene Campmeetings? I use to have a recording of them I recorded from a record that I had borrowed from an elderly man in our church. I would give a hundred dollars for one of thier live recordings and records. My how that coulple sang, and my how those folks shouted and worshipped. I would love for someone to put their recordings on youtube. This generation needs to experiance what those saints had!

[JimQualls]

Sorry, but I don't. I had a filling cabinet full of ree-to-reel tapes that was destroyed in the Florida hurricanes of 2004. Even lost my reel-to-reel recorders. Most of what I have left I am finding on some home recorded disks and a few 78s that are still playable.

[holinesspentecostal]

Oh, that's too bad! Had you ever heard of the Claxons? The recordings I had were from Nazarene Campmeetings back in the late 50s and early 60s. Most of them were recorded in St. Louis and Oklahoma City. The Album had a picture of Bro. Wally and Sis. Ginger on the front of it singing on stage at a campmeeting. They sang "Take This Whole World, But Give Me Jesus" with a choir accompanying them. They absolutely brought the house down! People got to shouting so loud you couldn't hear the singers.

[kjvonly01]

Amen, and amen.

[JimQualls]

Rom 1:20-21 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

KJV

[jcwfnn2b]

Amen...

When I in awesome wonder, consider ALL the world thy hands have made. Thy power throughout the universe displayed!

[JimQualls]

Mic 7:7

Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

Thanks for posting Jim, 5*****'s, and added to the archives of my other favorite Paul Qualls hymns.

[JimQualls]

Brother Tim, Thanks, I can't tell you how much my Dad would have beeb blessed to think that people would still be hearing him years after he had gone "home."

Through His Blood,

Jim

Brother, if a recording was ever made of your father singing, it would most definitely endure for whatever parties who would have possession of his masterful voice.

Like during the time frames of1:40-1:58 for example.

[churchintheair]

What a Spirit blessed ministry and anointed voice.

Perfect pitch! RARE!!! Great filling of the Holy Spirit. What a great treat, Jim. Your father still ministers to us all!

"When Christ shall come..."!

"How Great Thou Art" (BEAUTIFUL ENDING)

[JimQualls]

1 Thess 4:17-18

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

KJV

Thanks brother Chaim

[clayp72]

Were you fortunate enough to get him on video or film, singing?

[JimQualls]

Hi, I just have a few clips. I bought a VHS recorder a couple years before he went "home" and when he was in a revival anyhwere close I tried to tape it.

Thanks,

God bless,

Jim

[jimandlea]

May you richly be blessed.

[JimQualls]
