LIVE PERFORMANCE: "Hallelujah", Dorinda Clark Cole & Karen Clark Sheard COGIC Centennial

[76elyard]

Did you ever stop to think that he could, and for certain, was reading from a prepared statement, written by someone in the church? Think about that for a minute.

[RedMonetMizrahi]

Im so proud to have been brought up in C.H Mason Memorial C.O.G.I.C here in Norfolk, VA this video is simply amazing!!! what they kNow about a 300+ member choir!!!? PRAISE HIM!

[musicgrlmsladyj]

i love that whole outfit that karen has on

[DrumBeast05]

I know that Bishop Patterson was proud

[sunev7]

A moment I can honestly say: I was PROUD to be there. When we celebrated 100 years straight Sang Dorinda and Karen.

[rocslocs]

christ is neither black nor white so the comment black folks know how to praise the Lord is so out of place for us all to be children of God

[schoolgyrl6]

@rocslocs i dont think it was out of place, u jus have to have a sense of humor sometimes. "Livinglife" never said Blacks were the ONLY race to know how to praise the lord, now THAT would've been wrong. She(He) jus made a statement, and she's right, we do lol!

[danavideofilm]

@schoolgyrl6

I agree!!

[lovepigz2007]

I just love havin Church!!, COGIC, Pentecostal, Baptist, Apostolic, Non-Denominational, etc., at the end of the day, we serve the same God so that makes us all brothers, & sisters in Christ Jesus, as for me, I dont discriminate. I have the church on the inside of me so I can go to a Nondenominational church to hear the word and turn around and go to a COGICand praise God with the best of em. Love the way yall praise God.

[livinglife2thefulle1]

black folks we know we can praise LORD.

[MrPhillipsboy]

listen at 2:33 and she said oh stanka

[MrTony5107]

this is great. i would love to attend one of the COGIC conferences.

[peculiarjazzj]

Dorinda sounds just like her Mother.

[1991Jazzalian]

THIS IS SO POWERFUL, THE BASS IN THAT BUILDIN IS ROCKIN!

[misterdracus]

@3:17 the Flag girl shouting her BUTT OFF!!!!!

[Pianoman42100]

HALLELUJIA!!!! Clap your hands and PRAISE HIM!!!

[ebonyboy25]

I Luv them sisters

[mrsrayndolph]

@ SuperJadeDragon: If you're on Facebook, read my note entitled, "This is for the Saints that Ain't"...it agrees with what you are saying...100%

[Mslegal09]

Now i dont believe in stopping the shouting and interrupting you gotta let God have his way he's gonna order the service anyways the way he wants to but yall better shout but I Guarentee yall shouted AGAIN!!!!

[SuperJadeDragon]

I've never been to one of these COGIC conventions but I hate to watch them because while you have praise and worshippers going forth to lead the people you have those people in the robes just sitting there lounging! It's tacky and ridiculous, they should be up praising like the others. I can understand if the singer is giving off a spiritual bad vibe but you know the Clarks aren't. It seems to be wide spread even in other denominations. It's like their too good to praise God. Y R U there then?

[KingB234]

@SuperJadeDragon i noee u speakin the truth

[DancinMike]

@SuperJadeDragon Im of the PAW, but that doest mean anything. this clip blessed me. dont let it stop you from watching. saved and not saved. livin right and not living right. some folk not goina praise for what ever reason. but if they dont. Im still goina. you be sure to get yours. and enjoy the Lord. i know im a month late. but some folk dont know how to praise. or what. or even if they understand. but do it anyway!!!

[medene]

@SuperJadeDragon Those people are old and seasoned in the spirit, believe me God dwells in them at degrees that we could only pray for. Moreover, they are tired from performing a weeks worth of services - these are no spring chickens! God honors their praise and service.  Lastly, this is something that spiritual discernment will teach you - "Never confuse Activity with Results!" Or like my grandma says, "Its not about how high you jump, its about how straight you walk when you come back down"

[BillyJoe316]

@SuperJadeDragon I have got to agree with this. I don't understand that one either.

[exireds]

Who wrote Bush's speech?

[TristRoss]

Bush?!?!? NO!

[lilmnm4ever]

03:11 "We dont need no music" GO HEAD KAREN!!!!

[TheDominic2012]

i was there my church goes every year

[belcarn94]

whoa...when Karen came in she nailed that note:) 3:01

[waymondsdaughter2]

@5111pt since he's the FORMER president then he is no longer in a position of authority. Now what was that you were saying about ignorance?

[marvel0306]

Karn has a little bit of Twinkie and Dorinda in her voice. It's like she took the squalls from Twinkie and the riffs from Dorinda to make her sound

[couturesixfour]

i need bout eight more mphs on this music. they went on in though!! on ONE word!! yes sah!!

[maintainer747]

I wonder if the current President would dare show his base who is anti God and only are concerned with pushing a the LGBT agenda and abortion rights would EVER make this type of video giving the Holy Ghost praise an honor. I mean the same guy who wouldn't attend anything on national prayer day when Bush used to have it at the white house or at least be a speaker this guy does everything not to recognize God but yet over 96% of Black Christian voted for him..Why do we agree (Amos 3:3) with Him?

[SeoulSarah]

@5111pt Lol that's true.

[SeoulSarah]

Bush is so full of crap lol. Bless him though, he has a babyface lol!

[calideac]

I was there to in the nose bleeeeeed section. I great prasie indeed. Looking forward to St. Louis. It will be explosive.

[MrRiteisrite]

anybody with the Holy Ghost ought to feel something. I dont care what denomination you from. Cause he just like FIRE.

[TheSongbird34]

God Bless Bush!!! God Bless Obama!!! God Bless America!!!

[MrRiteisrite]

anybody with the Holy Ghost got to feel this ... especially @ 7:00.

[PEACHFACE24]

I thank God for living in a country where I can praise God---that is the one and true LIVING GOD. HALLELUUUUUUJAH!!!

[emanuelpk1]

I was THERE...and A wave went thru the WHOLE FedEx Center @ around 3:13...This STILL sends me into a PRAISE...Hallelugiah!

[mese84]

MY LORD,MY LORD dorinda and karen sung for exactly 4:04 and the rest was striahgt praise and worship.the spirit of th Lord the MOST HIGH God was definately in the atmospere i feel the anoing everytime i watch this

[lovedalover]

OMG Bush can't even read correctly! Enjoyed it overall even with Bush on here!!

[choirboy2012]

[Kingmidus86]

[ztjam01]

@Kingmidus86

yeah, he dont care bout cogic's much less black people. it was funny that after his speech the went into a praise, cause he was finished and Obama was on the way!!

[Mspendragon1972]

[couturesixfour]

Did George Bush leave the "d" out of hundreth...he said...HUNNERETH!! WOW!!

[zestymike48]

"Mason temple"?!! What? Did I hear Bush correctly?

[bishopfreeman75]

This is the Church of God in Christ, this is the Church of God in Christ...we are anointed, by God appointed...this is the Church of God in Christ!!!

[cogicchild12345]

[M0E360]

I'VE NEVER LIKED BUSH SO MUCH!!!!! WOW

[missfrasier]

[dt3223]

AHAHAHAHAH - RIGHT!

[iluvjesus7359]

i wonder if heaven is going to be like this .because thats what i call worship...AMENNN !

[5111pt]

people need to be careful about putting there mouth on our former president. One can't help but sense his sincere respect for the Church and his understanding of Church history.

[MZSKEE1908]

I would love to concur with you. Please remember he had a staff that provided him with that information as well as prepared the speech that he read from a teleprompter, Trust, he had no desire to have the history of COGIC in his longterm memory. Lets be cautious who we give passes / kudos to.

[5111pt]

Let's also be careful about making assumptions about the former president. How do you know that he doesn't have the desire to know the history of COGIC. Get yourself together fo real.

[medene]

@5111pt Common Sense will tell you

[Nativus27]

be careful...he didn't even write this speech...his "people" wrote it...wake up!!and discern the signs of the times...

[danavideofilm]

@5111pt

I agree!

[lechanteur88]

LOLOLOLLOOL!!!!

[bskbl3]

every since i found this video i haven't stop watching it!!! now this is what i call church!!! karen is a beast!!! love the clark sisters!

[HomDepoMan]

The 1st we hear of this song is Dorinda at 2:05. Was this the start of the song or was this video started in the middle of the song.

It seems almost impossible that a song would start off crunked up on 10. The instant Dorinda started singing she was going full steam Holy Ghost. Its like, she started at the end and went up from there. AWESOME ! ! ! ! ! !

[shay6261]

@HomDepoMan actually its not the begining of the song Dorinda comes in at the bridge (the special) of the song. but it dont really matter with the clarks they ll let u have it in the begining too LOL..........

[DorindaClarkColeFan9]

@HomDepoMan Dorinda stay @ 10 she never come down lol

[HomDepoMan]

If Bush would have been at this meeting, he would have gotten saved.

[organplaya]

The Dr. Suess Hat belongs to the C.O.G.I.C.

[apostoliczak]

i would hate to be an usher that night!!!

[gcisiah]

[HomDepoMan]

[apostle292002]

[Def2Lyfe]

That was the most intelligent speech I EVER heard from former president Bush. I'm not gonna trash talk him because if it wasn't for Bush screwing up the economy Barack Obama wouldn't have gotten in the White House. It was the right time and with the right person in this day in time. Praise God for a new Day a new Season and a new President

[proverb31woman]

Obama will be giving the speech next!!! His will mean something!!!

[UrbanizdDee]

[proverb31woman]

My fav singer dorinda clark-cole!! love ya! that song, throw back I just love it!

[111Mississippi]

how do you feel that bush dont know what he was talkin about? its quite obvious that many of you dont research what you say about the man, you say hes the worst president ever without researching weather or not thats true, the funny thing is if you really are talking about bush and saying that hes so bad, your really saying God made a mistake, and between your judgement and Gods Word and his choice cause all power and authority is given by God, then your saying God made a mistake, FACT

[mzpfunk2007]

"we don't need no music, we don't need no music." Sing Karen!!the power of the lord is in that place just listen to all the hand clapping and look at all those people shouting.

[kcmi89]

Whether you like President Bush, you have to admit that it is a honor to have our president and commander in chief to give honor to the COGIC and Bishop CH Mason.

[Apollonia316]

Karen knows how to praise God! Sent chills all over my body!! Lord!! Praise him Karen!!

[matuber]

There were 50 million saints gathered together and giving God praise in that place!

[matuber]

My bad, I meant to say 50 Thousand! LOL!

[DarkNLovely1015]

Besides Bush wasting 4mins talking that was HOTT...NEVER take this down!! They are cutting up! lol

[bxrokk]

Why were comments from George Bush necessary? He won his portion of the black vote for re-election in 2004 through manipulating the black church and their stance on gay marriage. The "saints" seem more like slaves looking for masta's approval and recognition.

[freedomizme]

$10,000,000 says BUSH had not a freakin clue of what he was talking about!!!! Anybody?!!?!

[loaactnow]

as if he cared anyway

[nextceo2k2]

lolol

[CogicTenor1]
