Soul Children of Chicago - 1987 We Are One

[Thaliacs]

It is going to take Jesus to reunite the church. Some people ask why I stay in the church, and I say it is a mystery like marriage.

[Thaliacs]

people will know by the way we talk that we are one in Love. Father thank you for bestowing the precious gift of your child.

[junk4yatube]

@freakedoutboye3 wish I could have been there for that. :)

[Thaliacs]

this song is so amazing.

[SwingSiren]

who is the girl who starts singing at 2 min???

[musicgirl78]

@SwingSiren ..That's Kim McFarland.. She later sang with Milton Brunson and the Thompson Community Choir

[RachelEMacD]

VERY nice!!! I've never heard of them, and I've never heard this version before. But I like it :) Where are these kids/adults now?

[TheGodlywoman2]

The soul children back in then day sang their hearts out on this one... You don't hear music and singing like this anymore.. Kim is what you call "The Lady, song Bird." The way she can hold a note and sing is beautiful..  God has given her the gift of singing. And when she sings, yolks can be broken. Praise God, the father for sending our High Priest Jesus!!

[diffusinglife]

Pastor Wintley Phipps!!

[Thaliacs]

I love this song.

[dremixceo]

still hv tears frm this anointed song!! please everybody keep we r 1 in our minds and hearts. there is only 1 God. to get to God is through Jesus Christ. to follow Jesus Christ is to love. our love is d only representation we can live by. unity is strength! as christians everywhere if we r bonded by our love and pray, we can make a serious dent in satan's plans. love is perfect, get some. if u hv it, allow it to develop more.

[16paradis]

[anorganizer]

Wow, I never knew Kim McFarland sang with the Soul Children of Chicago first. Lawd...she can blow. I miss these old songs I grew up on in my youth.

[liftimyall]

Lord I love this song

[DJGholston]

Man, this song is such a blessing. It's been on my heart all day. This is JUST the version I was looking for. Such a blessing! I had no idea Kim McFarland started with SCC. Wow! Praise God!

[anorganizer]

@DJGholston : Is this DJ Gholston who used to go to New Home Baptist Church back in the day?

[run4cvr]

Yes, I love Ms. Kim McFarland... Her voice just send chills up my spine... This is one of my all time favorites.....

[tvalent11]

This song is truly an inspirational song; However, i do believe it was originally sung by a group of women know as the YWCC (Young woman's Christian council) based out of Richmond, Virginia. I know the YWCC group formed in late 70's early 80s and this song was the theme song of their group. If i can find a copy of their performance i will post it.

[NardoFree2]

i love this choir, and i would love to meet brother walt whitman. keep  up the great work scc.

[treblecl8f]

Ah man! Look at Walt Whitman ... serious throwback song. Wow!

[Kaplanman09]

I heart this song. I got to get the live version they used to play on radio where Kim just goes completely nuts with them runs at the end. Claasic SCC cut.

[rcndad]

I LOVE KIM....

[freakedoutboye3]

Kim McFarland performed here in detroit this past monday w/ Donald Lawerence. Literally nailed Encourage Yourself.....Brought the house down

[carterboy66]

I wish I could have been in th house. I can hear kim doing that song. I know she did nail that. LOVE Kim Mc

[muzicklover29]

it never fails by the time this video is over i am flowing with tears..kim voice is like no others i thank God for the gift he has placed in her..and even the choir members was on point no only with the sound but also the stage presence seemed so sincere!!!

[KMHemsleyJr]

The one and only Kim McFarland. I am so glad that she is now featured on Donald Lawrence's new project - the song "The Blessing is on You".

[reeneaci]

[999mimi]

THE YEAR I WAS BORN!!!!!l

[Talbutti]

The lady that's singing is that Lecresia Campbell?

[ppaulst]

Does anyone know what year this could be?

[ChicagoStar1]

Kim still my favorite in gospel music to this day!Chicago holding u down Kimmy!

[aprigirl]

My twin is a SCC alum and she and Kim use to hold down the alto section.

Kim's voice is perfect and they do not sound like a kid choir. What beautiful mature voices.

[smarttogetout]

Kim sang alto?  That's a soprano voice if I ever heard one!

[THERIGHTREVEREND]

This was a hit back in the day. Hard to believe this was 21 years! I am gettin' up there!

[jacsealan]

this is real singing that makes a person want to be closer to God.

[kbswife7412]

This song is just what I needed to hear today it brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it. Thank you God for blessing Kim with such a wonderful voice.

[jameresgurl07]

kim tears up n e song she sings!!!!

[ballardmarv]

I listen to this song everyday before I take my first call at work. Very uplifting!

[adpeterscreel]

Glasses...don't matter. It's the word and the song that matter. She TORE this song up. I don't know how old she was in this video ,but she blew it out the water. I can watch and listen to this video all day. Anything with Kim McFarland I love.

[TT1478]

i just found out who Kim is, but was that her when she was younger?

[l33533]

[itsdynomyte]

One of the Best Choir's Ever!

[viz1]

dex (zm)

[viz1]

Glad to hear these kids stayed saved and still in the gospel.

[laron214]

ya'll are so silly talking 'bout them glasses. this was the style back in the day. that song was so beautiful. it brought back so many memories.

[GQLee]

I notice a lot of unnoticeable things. That light-skinned girl in the back looks like the lady that sings with Malcolm Williams. She might be. I don't know. lol.

[justopal]

Tee Hee. Amazing how I've aged 21 years in one little comment. From "light skinned girl" (1987) to "lady that sings with Malcolm" (2008).

[pedestal007]

YEEEEAAAAHHH, thank you thank you thank you 4 this. You just don't know how u blessed my day...

[justTHICKK]

[nowfaith0675]

U STUPID! LMAO

[urdwekstlinkgbye]

lol

[blackberryjuice1]

o! or the ones at 4:18.

[passionatedisciple77]

KIm truly has changed since then!

[speakoveryourself]

AND ALICIA JOSEPH DON'T FORGET HER.

[luvlecresia]

People, we grew up on this music! Nothing like it, Nothing like it!  We had Kim and we had Lecresia!

[nuggett06]

LORD, this is my prayer for the Body of Christ that we will realize our ONENESS. What we may believe may divide us, but in Whom we believe should unite us. "Father, make them one, as We are ONE." For only in oneness can we reflect the true essence of God. For Christ is not divided. Peace and blessings.

[warrengeezee2k7]

ONE WORD, REMARKABLE!!!!!

[shanes254]

Had no clue she's SCC Alumni. That's tight. And I always respected lead on this song.

[mdw4life]

Wow, my school choir did this a few months ago and this clip is from 87?, Man I was just born I was just born that year so I had to be a few months old...lol

[cinquecullar]

Sing Kimberly Ann... wow... listen to that control, that voice... I love u Big Sis.... wow.

[edwill06]

Sing Kim!!!!!!!! She is the best, even as a teenager. I love my sister!!!

[blackie2976]

I remember this song, I use to want to lead it but was to scared!

[EvangelistAllen]

I used to have some oversized glasses like the ones Kim is wearing in this video. Thank God for contacts and smaller frames!

[AJLD1]

I just realized by the voice that she is the one that sang "I Tried Him and I Know Him". That is one of my favorite songs. This clip here is a beautiful and prophetic. There does need to be a restoration of unity and a tearing down of denomination in the body of Christ.

[yungkeyz]

SING IT BIG WHIT

[BoyceBomb]

Kim is the one of the best.

[dexzion]

Oh wow this is 87! I was like 10years old! I love this song and remember when I first heard it.

dex & zion movement

[gemcityjeff]

Thank you for that lovely song. Such a beautiful Spirit filled group.
