Oh what memories. I remember singing this precious song in the choir. Of course no one has the 1st and 2nd soprano like Ms. Lecresia Campbell. She has a "beast". She has a glorious and angelic voice. She is strict but good. The Soul Children are/were anointed.
@politicalpolitics ...Get the free Real Player and download it. Then when you pull up this video, you'll see the little tab pop to down this video. Download, then convert it to MP3. You'll have to set it up to do MP3's and make a "download" folder to put it in your "My Music" folder. Just make sure you delete the video if you don't want it. It just takes up space.
Wow. There's nothing else I can add to describe this song. If your spirits aren't lifted by this, you really need to take a long look in the mirror...
Love this song, it truly says ALL about GOD ,HOW EXCELLENT IS HE!! This song had to be done in the late 80's early 90's....hair, glasses, and clothes BIG BRIGHT AND BOLD!!!!!!!!!! NOT ABOUT AL THAT, BUT THE MESSAGE OF THE SONG...TAKE ME BACK TO CHURRCCCHH!!!
OMG When they got to 4:10 I was getting ready to stand up, shout out, do a couple flips and praise Him! ...But I forgot I'm at work so I praised Him in a different way. LOL
i love this song everytime i hear it i just smile and i cant stop no matter if im mad or anything especially when jamie is shown on the camera 2:18. i can tell he loves the Lord
@msr18924 i agree with you i will be listening to this all night it is so annointed i wish i couldve heard this a lot earlier and im only 14. it does my heart good to see children happy about the Lord. even though they are adults now
I remember as a young child singing in the choir. The anointing fell upon the entire choir and the "sermon" had already been preached. Thank you Jesus for your precious anointing!!! I feel the anointing even now. Thank you for the video. God Bless You!
My God!!!!!!!!!!! U Go Head Ms.Campbell Dat Is Beautiful, Those High Notes She Be Hitting Comes Straight From The Heart. She Is Very Anointed Thank You Jesus For Ms.Lecresia Campbell
One of many soulfully touching songs...when I hear it, I began to cry and rejoice at the same time. I absolutely love it for it really ministers to the heart.
Man, this takes me back! I used to LOVE me some Lecresia and some Walt Whitman and the Soul Children of Chicago! This is so good for the soul...to go back and to remember where God brought you from, and to remember the music that first brought you to His throne in worship. Awesome!
This is such a great song that it has prevailed through the years and you still feel the annointing whenever it is ministered. Thank's Walt for allowing God to use you to write and Soul Children for allowing God to use yall to sing it
wow i wish sololist would sing like this NOW....jus pure... isnt it funny most female soloist dont wanna sing high anymore (SOPRANOS WHERE U AT???? )???? everybody wants the "kim, jasmine" raspy tones and runs....
ITS SO PLAYED. SINGERS PLEASE BE ORIGINAL and find ur own voice lol
im not sure, taking a good guess, judging by her hairstyle this was probably performed in the late 80's, which would make those children today in their early to mid-thirties. chione07 plz correct me if im wrong.
my class in music history was going over Gospel music, this was one of the songs we had to learn. I had to come look it up after i heard it :D its awesome
SO true....I remember being 5 and being taught to sing correctly. Now a days they dont even get down like that. The perfected praise is not longer standard.
Now see this is that kind of singing that even though the vocals are off the hook, you never focus too much on the singer but the focus is on the LORD because the singing is actually ANOINTED!!! Ain't nobody trying to be a CELEBRITY and take the focus off of God. Sang chirren and sang LaCresia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the anointing. When you're anointed in whatever you are doing, God takes over and everything is erased out of your mind and it just you alone with the Lord and you're singing to him and how good he's been to us, why would we give him anything less than our best? God Bless!!
EXCELLENT! Beyond excellent, such a blessing the Lord has bestowed on this annointed child of God. She looks like she knows her greatness and from whence it came. She also looks like she recognizes the crispness and snap of the youngsters accompanying her. That's how you do things! You get honor when you get discipline out front, discipline of voice, structure and practice baby. Praise each head and hand involved in this whole production, all. Have Mercy Lord on ALCON....
I can't believe that people are actually sitting down on these sanging children and LC! When you hear them tenors part, that's your cue! And she is a female John P. Kee and Daryl Coley mixed into one!LOL!
There are not to many songs that you can just close your eyes and just listen to! This is one of those songs that just makes you think of how good God has been! By the way 2009 is your year, walk in your victory and get ready to be set in position for your overflow of blessing! Love ya, got to go!
I listen to this video daily. That Lecresia Campbell has a voice truly sent from God. And everyday I cry tears of joy after listening to her lovely voice.
Wow! I love this song...I used to play it over & over & over & over again!..lol...It brings back a lot of good memories. Lecresia Campbell is awesome!...
