"I Can Go To God In Prayer" (1981)- Albertina Walker

[southernhotgui]

As much as I really love and enjoy contemporary Gospel, the classics always reach deeper into my soul. Songs like this give me great joy & peace knowing that I can take any and everything to God in prayer!

[foxymidnite]

My FAVORITE SONG IN history 4 me!!!

[roygbiv456]

Needed this song

[shardyshard22]

wow this sound really good ,this song is definitely ahead of its time

[gingerbread1231]

I have a request - keep posting what you are. LOL Anyway, I thank you for posting the COMPLETE version of this song. Much love to you.

[mistroplease]

Hyacinthb-I dont know what it is you dont understand. These are the scriptures you gave me, which I looked up. You were right they didn't sing. But at the same time like I said in my other response Isaiah6:2-3 Revelations4:8 and Luke2:13 (Read my comments again)

You are in error also. Sorry I don't think I need to study with you. God Bless

[Orbot]

Lawd, this song sho'nuff puts the clappin' in yo' hands and a stompin' in yo'feet and a praise in yo'mouth!

[gingerbread1231]

@Orbot all right now! Say that!!

[Orbot]

@gingerbread1231 4sho'!

[mistroplease]

Thank you for bring that to my attention. As I searched the scriptures for myself. I found errors in your observations. Isaiah 6:2 says that the Seraphims which are an order of Holy angels Isa. 6:3 says they cried one unto another Holy Holy Holy. In Revelations 4:8 talks about the four Beast which is an animal not an angle saying Holy Holy Holy Last scripture Luke 2:13 the heavenly Host saying Verse 14 Glory to God in the Highest , and on earth peace,good will to men. So sorry to you also.

[Orbot]

EVERYBODY'S church choir or devotional leader sang this back in the day! Lawd this is when gospel music was GOSPEL MUSIC!

[LADYBIRD501]

@Orbot AMEN!!!!!!

[johncharles4]

Bless all the women who sang for GOD'S glory. I sure have been blessed by them.GOD has a new home for us all in HEaven if we believe in him and except his son Jesus as our savior and the singers of the world help to bring the good news to us.

[coachnsuccess]

What a song back in the day. The young people would really work this one. Albertina could do it.

Cassetta George was good as well as Inez Andrews and Dorothy Norwood.

[TheMacke38]

I saw her last year in april at a church in chicago. REST IN PEACE !!!!!!!!!!!! This is still one of my favorite songs

[seanyunya21]

REST IN PEACE SISTER ALBERTINA WALKER THEY WERE A BIG INSPIRATION IN MY LIFE ( THE CARAVANS)

[LargerLovebug]

This one of my favorites....Albertina knew what she was talking about yes there not a friend like the lowly Jesus!!!!! I know that I can go to God in Prayer!!!! Thank you Lord for sending Albertina our way!!!!! Thank you Lord Jesus

[LargerLovebug]

This one of my favorites....Albertina knew what she was talking about yes there not a friend like the lowly Jesus!!!!! I know that I can go to God in Prayer!!!! Thank you Lord for sending Albertina our way!!!!!

[mistroplease]

Saints in revelations the bible said the angels sang holy holy back and forth to each other. So why must we argue about something as that. We sing praise to God to glorify him only not ourselves.

[hyacinthb]

@mistroplease Just an observation - Revelation does not say the angels sang "Holy Holy Holy" - Rev. 4:8 says that the angels "said", likewise, Isa. 6:3 the hosts "cried unto another", and Luke 2:13-15 the heavenly hosts were "saying" - there is no place in scripture where the angels sang "Holy Holy Holy". Sorry.

[Curiousme100]

I have always believed in prayer, that is why I love this song so much. I can go to God in prayer and having the confident that He will answer me when I pray and ask in Jesus name. This is always good to know.

[Heavensdoor05]

im a muslim but i love Gospel music and especialy the Queen of Gospel ;)

R.I.P Queen ...

[gospelfanman]

I HATE TO SAY IT... but... (forgive me God if i'm wrong...) i feel that SHIRLEY CAESAR was sitting around JUST WAITING for this moment... like a buzzard. I can NEVER forgive her not recording with the Caravans on PAVED THE WAY... (she had OTHER OBLIGATIONS?) But when Tina became feeble & was in a wheelchair... i see Shirley ON STAGE with her, like she had so much love for her. (I COULD BE WRONG)... but the song say: DONT give me flowers when U CAN SEE i'm HALF DEAD!

[San47di1]

@gospelfanman To answer you, Yes you are WRONG!! Please stop making ignorant "assumptions." Every Caravan has been in & out of that group from time to time w/ their own careers .. every last one of them have gone solo at some time or another having other financial & legal bindings that they Must fulfill! The acid you are spewing is "disgusting" & a bawled faced Lie, so stop it!!

[gospelfanman]

@San47di1 DO NOT comment 2 me. if my sprewing is so DISGUSTING, then DO NOT dignify it w/a response, WITH YOUR SELF-RIGHTEOUS-sounding self. my comment about SC has gotten me MANY "private" comments THAT AGREE w/what i have stated. i'm NOT TALKING about the 1960s when THE CARAVANS were singing together... i'm talking about recent events when the seemingly-apparent SNUBS from YOUR IDOL (SC) towards AW could have no more clearer. YOU, San47di1, are amongst the vocal minority & ignorant ones

[willthebest1]

@San47di1 you christian fighting take it to God in prayer

[gospelfanman]

@willthebest1 TO answer you, Best, YES i do have God. i also have commonsense. (not trying to be snug)

[willthebest1]

@gospelfanman well im not trying to be a snug either but sister albertina is deceased--im only saying honor her and take your problems to God in prayer and not air them out on youtube. or exchange number with the person you are in odds with air it out face to face or over the phone--that's all--Be the example of a Real and True Christian if you are a follower of Jesus.take care and be blessed.

[gospelfanman]

@willthebest1 - Best... i was not sure just where you were coming from. i see and accept the spirit in which you spoke. i wish you blessing as well and thank you for your comment. the point was and is well taken. i walk with a foot in both worlds (the church and the clubs) but.. it is refreshing to see (as you put it) that rare and genuine, True Christian on this site. i spoke my mind but HERE was perhaps not the way to do so... but... thanks 4 being a GOOD example of your faith

[willthebest1]

@gospelfanman thank you and may Our Creator bless us with peace. :)

[willthebest1]

@gospelfanman that's sad You Christian fighting among youselves--don't air it out on youtube go to God in Prayer

[Savvynlady]

thank you for posting and RIP Sis Albertina.

[ekblack1968]

God Lord. I just got our breathe listening to this song. I left my chair and started running. This is so true. Why be concerned with Man to deliver something for you. GO TO GOD

[ekblack1968]

caught it before it goes over your head. LOL. shout SATAN. I;m not yours.

[ekblack1968]

caught it before it goes over your head. LOL

[nodlew1943]

This song was the jam in my church. Anytime the choir sing this song. everyone would immediately jump up and clap. The choir would lean back on "oh yes He can."

[nolagemini]

Oh my this is the original can't ya just tell. Everyone is clappin too.

[Quan1906]

Romans 8:15 "God's Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who he is, and we know who we are: Father and children. And we know we are going to get what's coming to us—an unbelievable inheritance! We go through exactly what Christ goes through. If we go through the hard times with him, then we're certainly going to go through the good times with him!

[TLS83]

Okay my bro and I are straight going down memory lane with our old church choirs (youth, adult, mass and senior)....and this is yet another one my aunt and then my mom used to sing and it ALWAYS had the church on their feet. Thanks Jay for the memories!

[Marshallmiracles]

This song really took the country by storm when it came out -- every choir was singing it, seemingly in pink choir robes, and with every note just like the record!

[TekoaG]

@Marshallmiracles LOL!!!!

[handrventures]

That's my SONG!!!.... Sing Tina!!!

[girlblessedbygod]

this is for you mother bolling....love u and miss u...

[gomoni87]

My my my! I almost forgot about this song! I remember the choir used to sing this song all time @ Apostolic Church of God where Dr. Byron Brazier is now the pastor :o)

[mrsrayndolph]

Now this is one of my all-time favorites...

[jelangel]

Abba Father-

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father (Rom. 8:15).

[fnihp30]

We sing this all the time at Apostolic Church of God....

[vernette0604]

Yes He Can! Yes He Can! Yes He Can! OH YES HE CAN!

[hyacinthb]

Rainy, This is the original, Baby. The original version is ALWAYS the best. LOL!!

[Orbot]

@hyacinthb SAY THAT!! This song has been song alot down through the years, but this right here is the sho'nuff real thang!!

[109RainyBaby]

[Tyffany]

What is the choir singing when she says, "He will take my gloom and sorrow?"

[Simmi0609]

turn it into light

[Tyffany]

Thanks!

[Kingmidus86]

Turn it into li i i i ight

[Tyffany]

Thanks!

[jamminondakeys]

Are the saying "Our Father" or "Abba Father?"

[fstanley35]

"Our Father"

[jamminondakeys]

Thanks.

[hyacinthb]

LOL! Just a gospel music rule, if the lyrics are part of a scripture, changes are they are saying the enire line. Abba, Father up in Heaven is not scripture, but "Our Father [up] in Heaven", is. I had to learn that the hard way. LOL!

[case1show]

I thank Jesus for going to the gross so I might be able to go to god in prayer hallejuh!!
