Stillman College Concert Choir did this song and we learned it in a day!!! It was amazing!!! I think every choir should learn it.... its just simply awesome!!!!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (April 24), Matthew 28:1-17 was the basis for our Sunday School Lesson for today. It was entitled "Christ Is Risen!"
This is my 1st time ever hearing this song......I love Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers and this is a nice song but in my opinion he had them doing a bit too much on this song.
@MrGmoney111 Another gospel choir director: Look him up, he probably said that at the end, because he knew Ricky Dillard and New G, ,could do this song justice!!!
@destined4directn he made that comment to ricky at the end because [according to what he said on the dvd version of this project] he doesnt "direct" like he used to but ricky still does that sweatin and back bending. lol this song required both to direct it.
New Life Christian P&W Center Full Gospel Baptist Church out of HUntsville has an AWESOME Praise Dance ministry that does a dance to his that will make ANYBODY kum to Christ!
It's truly sad that he's competing with Ricky Dillard rather than just simply making uplifting gospel music. Seems like he's in it for the wrong reasons.
@kjdanzy He wasn't saying it to compete with Ricky Dillard, he was saying it because this is Ricky Dillard's style - not his. There is no competition between the two, rather respect for his craft.
@ladaylove at the end of the song he says "you can have that Ricky Dillard" and that killed the whole spirit of the song (which I had actually enjoyed until that part). you can also tell that comment didn't quite go over well with the audience too by how quickly the applause began to die just after he said it at 6minutes and 30 seconds. it sounded too much like a 'dis'...but that's just my opinion.
@kjdanzy Ok that is true but at the beginning of the actual live performance he is giving Ricky Dillard his due for the style of gospel. Donald Lawrence actually said he was getting too old to hang with Ricky Dillard as far as his style of gospel music. This CD is also a DVD perpformance in a concert hall. There is a lot that is cut out. Trust me I seen it with my own eyes.
@ladaylove well, in that case i withdraw my comment. thanks for setting the record straight. unfortunately, many will not know that part of the story. including those who were 'fashionably' late to the concert...lol
@kjdanzy it's not a dis. it had to do with what was said in the beginning. Also the applause going down is fading out of the ambient microphones (the mics that pic up sound from the audience)
i love this song i'm playing this on the drums is a challenge but its something i am over coming ! i cant wait till easter Sunday of 2010 the church will be off the hook
@D3ZZ389 Love this song so much. Wish I was there to hear you guys (or any church) rock it! I'm the drummer at our church and we don't ever do anything this cool haha! Happy Easter :)
I act like im directing this song in my room like everyday. lol, but this is A very powerful song and it takes a lot of discipline to be able to learn. Shout outs to Donald Lawrence!!!
Thanks for posting the jam! After my kids Easter Program last year, I had this on repeat in the car, in the house, and on my MP3! This is a choir directors dream song and should be treated as so! Peace to all those that know, thanks again for the post, and I am gonna enjoy!
We sung this for Easter at my church in Nashville!!! When we got invited to sing in the Bahamas we sung this song and they thought this was our song. Donald Lawrence is BLESSED!!!!
Yea what does he mean,"You can have that Rickey Dillard"? I know that if them two niggas beefing in the Gospel Industry with Anthems. then neither of them is doing it for God. And they both GAY anyway.
my church song this to and we blew this song did you all and one more thing wat church do you go to cause i go to greater new southern missionary babtist church and we jam down there do you all
