Whitney Houston sings at New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, NJ.

[kemiseba2011]

how could anyone be so heartless as to give this the thumbs down..? amazing

[mdouglas32]

really 10 dislikes?? This is young Whitney singing for God...what's not too like?! (smh). Maybe I'm just being biased, but I love Whitney Houston for whatever she sings, at whatever age, in any venue!!

[wwwTHEROZESCREWcom]

R.I.P Whitney. We are praying for your mother and daughter for strength during these aching times. God bless you. We have a respectful tribute to Whitney Houston on our page. Please check it out and let us know what you think.

El enemigo está al acecho de los hijos de Dios. Las malditas drogas destruyeron a una hermana como Whitney. No se como sucedió, pero espero que se haya reconciliado con el Padre antes de partir de este mundo.

[MertonHayford]

Sometimes God is very generous with handing out talent, but less generous in allowing the talent time. Well, that evens things out I guess.

[syasyakimora]

@MertonHayford very well put..

[MertonHayford]

@syasyakimora Thanks.

[mdooms76]

@MertonHayford God is not less generous in allowing talent time. Tomorrow is promised to NO ONE...talented or not. You have to make the most of life while you are here. Unfortunately, certain lifestyle choices cut people's lives short which is a direct kill to the talent the offered to the world. I miss Whitney so much and didn't even know her. It's so sad that she's gone forever. It's hard to even listen to her songs right now. :-(

[whitw0rthstreet]

God freaks dissing natures wonder,,,,,,,, Ms Whitney Houston

[Halliwellsson]

R.I.P Whitney!

[jackie826xx]

the people who are laughing and making fun of whitneys death are the same people that hurt animals and small children. they are evil and do not feel compassion. i feel sorry for them. 

[lyricaldose]

She sung just as beautiful! so happy that she got the opportunity to share her gift with us. RIP

[fittguy]

anyone know the name of that song? thanks.

[nccooke]

Thank you so much for uploading!! This is priceless!!!!!

[murice11]

WHAT ARE THE 9 DISLIKES FOR??????

[rockdiva888]

@murice11 cause they crazy!

[youonknowme]

@gdird where does it say once saved always saved

[gdird]

Once your saved you are always saved!!!!! Nothing could keep her from GODS GRACE JUDGE NOT UNLESS YOU BE JUDGED!!!

[starmsjc]

I doubt drug addicts make it to heaven!

[jakhaarikiaana]

@starmsjc God is more forgiving than you...

[murice11]

@starmsjc Wow, when did you become God?? I guess I didn't get the memo. HEY EVERYBODY STARMSJC IS NOW GOD, PLEASE MAKE A NOTE OF IT. Ok starmsjc I told everyone for you.

[neetrab]

thanks for the footage!

[Trisawman]

@thesagonjones you don't know where Whitney is spending eternity. You are so out of line and way out of context biblically

.

[lightndarking]

Sad to know/see that was the same exact church her funeral was shown for the world. Also sad to see she was just 34 years and a few feet away from where her casket would be laying in the same exact building. R.I.P Queen!

[LPNET1]

@lightndarking She was 48

[lightndarking]

@LPNET1 I said 34 years from the year of the video.

[emanuelburke]

@lightndarking that's how it works. you are raised in a church and then you get funeralized at that same church.... weird @ you.

[PhyllisShepherd]

I hope that these are merely heartfelt expressions of sympathy and nothing more...worship? Whitney wouldn't want that.

[ebbie2009]

many of these comments are so sad. yes my heart goes out to whitney and her family and I hope she RIP, but some people are worshipping her. she is not a god.

[illj25]

@ebbie2009 I do not think anyone thinks of Whitney as a God. However, she resembles God. We have yet to see God himself, so once in a while when he send one of his Angels down to us in any shape or form, we tend to love them as we would love God. Sometimes it would appear that we worshiping that Angel, well that's because we feel closer to God when we talk, love, and idolize that Angel. Whitney was an Angel and this world corrupted her. Remember that Angel God sent and people raped her?

[ricanariel]

WHITNEY WE ALL LOVE U BUT GOD LOVES U MORE RIP

[77HTina]

@thedagonjones I guess you both know GOD personally!! Wow..there are sooooo many PERFECT people on here. No one makes mistakes...huh? God loves EVERYONE and knows their heart. EVIL SPEAKS VOLUME!!! You better repent, and stop assuming and judging others. I know that's not the least bit GODLY!

[thedagonjones]

@77HTina

You can go to hell you fucking pagan. She is in hell.

[77HTina]

@thedagonjones And you're the DEVIL!!!! You'll be in hell before me with your EVIL, HATEFUL, IGNORANT AND RACIST ASS!!

[LPATWILLFILM]

@thedagonjones Any man that call upon THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST shall be saved!!! You better call upon HIM so you won't go to hell! 

[kemiseba2011]

that show bizzy type "muwah muwah" its was straight from the heart CHURCH.. CISSY HOUSTON and DIONNE WARWICK you are STRONG WOMEN .. you did your families PROUD and you showed some celebs out there HOW TO DO IT..

[kemiseba2011]

SHE WENT HOME she travelled back to her ROOTS in the GOSPEL CHURCH .. this is the whitney without the drama, without bobby brown NO celebrity stuff JUST PEOPLE WHO LOVE HER.. giving her the send off that we all would wish for .. now if only R KELLY would come and sing at our family send offs that would be so cool, he was amazing and so was cece winans .INFACT the whole WINANS FAMILY IMPRESSED ME SO MUCH they love whitney and its not

[YouLaToya]

When she was just Cissy's daughter.

[MsFruitbasket]

None of the "on-line" hate can displace my love and admiration for this Pop Princess.

RIP Whitney.

[empiricalpoet]

amazin!



[DestyniMac17]

Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all. Its's also letting go and that you did Whitney,that you did. Thanks for the memories

[superchick76]

People are just so mean and cruel. For those with negative comments, I hope no one disrespects you when you die. Losers hide behind computers and say mean things about people. Get a life,

[JohnKillrory]

@superchick76 Thank you,I agree with you. We all have things that one would not want to have the world know. To me she was the best singer ever..I saw her on the Joan Rivers show and fell in love with the skinny little girl with the beautiful smile and eyes. People need to just keep quite or when the die they will face their own words. All have fallen short of GODS perfection..She loved, she felt pain and heartache

She also believed in the Christ. So Whit I will see you at home

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory YA HEARD!!! :) I know this sounds strange...But, at first I was sad for Whitney's passing. Then, it came to me, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST sometimes calls one home in order to SAVE THEM, in order to HEAL THEM, in order to REDEEM THEM. This old nasty, stank, evil lousy world was going to do nothing but keep on dragging our sister down and holding in her "chains of bondage." THE LORD knows how to make a WAY out of NO WAY. Sometimes that means GOING HOME! :) I feel HAPPY for WHITNEY! :)

[ricanariel]

@LPATWILLFILM so true satan had g grip on her at least she believed in the lord and she was brought up in church its funny bro i bet most of these haters have never been to church or has opened a bible whitney went home with the lord

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory My sadness is felt for her MOM and her DAUGHTER and the rest of her family and intimate friends and fans that WE will not be able to enjoy her any longer in THIS LIFE, but as far as WHITNEY... She has it going on!!!! :) She is in THE KINGDOM and she is rejoice!!! :) She is PRAISING OUR HEAVENLY FATHER and our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!! :) Hallelujah!!! :) So, let our hearts rejoice her for our sister WHITNEY. God gave her a way of escape from Worldly Demonic forces here!

[JohnKillrory]

@LPATWILLFILM Our GOD is light and love. Our GOD is soon to reveal his children to a world that has hurt and killed many of us. We will be the Governors of his world and all things will be given to his children. Jesus is now ready for his kingdom..I love him and want to work for him in the new world. Evil will be destroyed and all who love this world. They are wrong about her. She was GODS and in the End he took her home

All have fallen short of GODS perfection. JESUS was the gift

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory AMEN. AMEN. & AMEN. Yes, brother. See, we always THINK death is a bad thing. But, here's the thing there is an appointed time that those who are not raptured "caught up" will taste "mortal death." But, I have seen this with loved ones, a family member and a pastor friend of mine's daughter. These people were so BOUND up in their lives with SIN and were at a crossroads with THE LORD and it was like as soon as they finally said "YES, LORD!" Boom! They soon after died!!!

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory I noticed how Whitney's sister-in-law and her REAL bodyguard stated at Whitney's homegoing how that week she stated to her sister, "however the LORD FIX me, let Him fix me." Her bodyguard said how on the day of her passing within hours she came to him speaking "biblically about the book of Matthew" and how she told him "we're going to be all right." Then later, she was gone! WHITNEY got her "moment in time" with THE LORD JESUS to get things squared away with HIM. And, boom!

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory He took her into His Care and Kingdom -- far away from the darkness of this every wicked and dying world! Why? Because Whitney was READY! :) She was then ready to enter into His joy!! :) Sometimes, a person "staying" here is not always the best thing for them spiritually, The Lord knows this and so for those once their hearts are truly set right with Him, He gets them out of here and take them straight into Glory! :) Some of us He leave us here to be a testament & testimony.

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory But, truly THE LORD JESUS CHRIST knows how much each and every one of us can sincerely "bear" of this life. Some of us can bear the "cross" of living out long days on the earth and some of us (real talk) we can not bear that sort of "cross." There is a scripture in ISAIAH I believe CHAPTER 56 that says we never "consider" that The Lord "takes away" the righteous to keep them FROM the evil to come. Whitney's mother on her OBIT wrote that when she was born THE HOLY SPIRIT

[LPATWILLFILM]

@JohnKillrory told her that "Whitney would not be with her long." Mother Cissy said she never told Whitney what THE HOLY SPIRIT had revealed about her daughter when she was born. So, see GOD knew all of the "steps" of Whitney and as her sister said the one thing Whitney was "absolute" about was her LOVE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. Whitney, like all of us had done some "shameful" things in life, but yet, she was NEVER ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST! :) And, that is why...

[Pllm30]

@LPATWILLFILM I don't believe the Holy Spirit told Cissy that. I believe it was the spirit of the newborn Whitney herself revealing to her mother that she would not be here long. The Holy Spirit does not deal with death and prophesying ppls deaths. Though it has the power to do this, it's not its purpose.

[lightndarking]

@Pllm30 I agree with you on that. Spirits of newborn babies, defenitly speaks volume!!!

[katieshealinggarden]

@LPATWILLFILM AMEN!

[lovemyselfforever86]

@MrLarrylegend very rude

[sekou566]

the girl is bad.

[mp4guru]

What a beautiful voice.... I wish we could see more videos like this instead of the media trash thats out there now! R.I.P. Whitney!

[MrDaylow]

A LITTLE ANGEL........

[Famfriass]

That is where most black singers start out...singing out for God first.

[athorpe630]

My prayers go out to the family especially Bobbie Kristina no child that young should be without a mother.I know i've been there.RIP Whitney.

[MrDTJones1]

a blessing. THE VOICE. heartbroken on Valentines Day. where do broken hearts go?

[Sileni]

I truly despise Fox News even more than ever...

[u7498]

SHE LOOKS SO CUTE

[Beautifulbajan86]

@gregboyds1 only a loser would disrespect someone who died.

[veelighted7]

she has the youtube a buzz as she lit the world with her voice

[do4l0v3]

If I should die this very day

Don't cry, 'cause on Earth we weren't meant to stay....RIP Whitney

[do4l0v3]

Don`t feel bad for her.She is in a better place for sure.♥

[losepoundsandinches]

@do4l0v3 Any place is better than that bathtub.

[Leelyn05]

@losepoundsandinches you are a real jerk!!!!!

[medusa7ful]

When Whitney was interviewed about her drug problem, I said to myself this lady is so brave to get on TV and asked us to "Just Pray For Whitney" I've prayed for her ever since. Tears in my eyes right now. It's a mean world! OOOOooooLawd!!!!

[milacakes]

whitney always gave God the glory no matter what!! We love you Whitney!!

[ilmacab]

Where it all began in the church choir ... What charm of voice.

[maelisath]

es increible en una iglesia Bautista¡¡¡¡¡, practicamente la mayoria de cantantes ha salido de iglesias evangelicas, es como si el diablo se metiera para sacarlas y para colmo terminan muy mal

[TheShekinahlove]

God Bless you now Whitney,,, In his arms.. What a wonderful legend. 

[msrelaxx]

Awesome Whitney.

[wat700son]

God Bless you little girl-we will always Love You

[MzRemy157]

This is a trmendous loss to everyone Whitney we will miss you RIP (tears)

[tythestylist]

I was watching the honors show on BET and it amazed me when she said that she was so humbled to be honored and not judged. Many people have their own life story and battles, but I believe that Whitney worshiped God sincerely, and she never forgot about God, even in her darkest hour and through her deep struggles. I will always love Whitney. She was annoited by God vocally and he heard her cry! I know she is in a better place. I am going to miss her tremendously. R.I.P. Whitney.....I LUV U

[searching4God1]

R.I.P. sis <3 i belive you are home... resting , enjoing with our Father...

<3

[dlfunky1]

hopefully the church will have a role in the funeral arrangements i cant even belive im saying this- it still hasnt sunk in.

[umaara100]

She came from Newark like myself.When she came on the scene in 1985 i was 15 and i thought she was the most beautiful girl i saw.Please people dont judge her.May she rest in peace.

[fireserpent26]

Didn't recognize her,but that voice is unmistakable! Rest is peace honey!

[bujuswifey]

whitney rest in peace ur now in the arms of god

[LaDiaFerguson]

R.I.P. Whitney!

[m3wren]

you can hear strength in her voice even at that age, nicole in regards to your comment about backsliding, I Jesus, didn't backslide and yet her was nailed to a cross initially and because we all are born into a world of sin.

[Joversi]

It´s so sad how fame and fortune can lead a person so away from the Lord. It makes me worry about those church talents being recruted by American Idol and X-Factor; will they have a similar fate?

[nicolejones85]

see when you backslide form the church and turn to the world, the devil kills you

[HakikaJL]

@nicolejones85 , We have all sinned and fallen short! We should pray that God will have mercy on our souls in those times. We dont know her relationship with God. U only know of her struggle but she is still God's child whom He gave an amazing gift 2. We all have 2 go....just as sure as u r born, u die. I Cor 13:6/7 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Whitney we will always <3 u!

[cobrasfire03]

God needed an angel to sing in his choir and he took the best of the best to direct his choir of angels in heaven leaving us with such a pain in our hearts. R.I.P. Whitney "we'll always love you." as your song said.

[BensonBee]

FEELS LIKE WE JUST LOST A MEMBER OF THE FAMILY,

[MyavaMusic]

<3

[MyavaMusic]

go Whitney!

[nikkijackpee]

A bright light has been distinguished. Now you are truly at peace as you rest in the embrace of your Father's arms. Miss you already. Rest in peace.

[garycalgary]

now she's gone feb 11, 2012. 

Goodbye velvety voice lady

[GanjaStuPipesUp]

I was a massive Whitney fan back in the 80s and remember eagerly awaiting the gospel album she kept mentioning she wanted to record. Had it ever manifested I've no doubt it would have been sensational. What happened Whitney??

[lunilulu]

@GanjaStuPipesUp how about the Preacher's Wife soundtrack?

[bandheadguy99]

I love this lady BEYOND articulation! Don't judge her on her afflictions. Everyone have their personal battles and struggles. She is one of the best and most influential voice(s) of ALL time!

[joohsay]

I think that she is 16 here.

[kaile27]

i liked most of her expressions when she sings,look at the eyebrows i can't smiling right now (grin)

[hihosilverlining2]

wow she was so beautiful and blessed. I pray she goes back to the Lord and gives back to the Lord the talent He gave her x

[deon424702]

@hihosilverlining2 lol don't you mean hee give her back the talent bobby took away with them drugs?

[Rooroo05]

She looked greasy here :( I love her though :)) LOL

[DaStr8Truth]

She was about 11 or 12 here.

[zetecandi]
