In response to some of the other comments, you could take it that "the King" they're referring to is "The King of Pop"... Also, I thought it was an excellent selection of music, and is still emotional watching it over 2 years later!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (November 20, Christ the King Sunday), we sang this as our Closing Hymn. It is #439 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship. So ends the church year.
Just BEAUTIFUL!!! I just hate that we had to lose HIM to have had that beautiful service...why come out of the shadows now (celebrities)--couldn't you have just been there for him while he was alive? Maybe he'd still be here. Instead you ALL-again, (celebs) jump on the "I was best friends with Michael Jackson bandwagon". Especially you Brooke Shields. Shame on you ALL.
I remember feeling nausea when i saw this. It was really really powerful. I just collapsed crying. And i agree with emily. Michael jackson had that special something, he impacted everyone
i agree emily, and not just in the U.S.A. the "entire"world stopped. i defy anyone to say that there wasn't something very special about MJ. you can add the last three popes, mother Thresa, princes Di, J.F.K. and anyone else you can think of that has died in the past hundred years and you'll see that all there services put together didn't get the worldwide attention that MJ's did. If you ever loved MJ, you still love i know i do.
I am an real MJ fan, I'm also called after his name, that's why my name is Michael too... On that day i was thinkg "I'n not going' to cry, but the moment he came in: I broke! And still it brings tears to my eyes, but I'm also be glad that I was alive when this man lived! The first time there is a legend in my life that lives (untill that terrble moment:))
Beautiful Song and Beautiful Ceremony..I so sorry for Michael..He was such sweetheart and is wish we could turn back the time and save him..this is so untimely..that's what makes it hurt so bad
We have lost a legend ,but the his three children lost a father a great love one, what got me so baaaad is when Paris was huging her aunt Toya as the brothers especially"Jermain" were walking by" passing Michael's kids" kissing their mother,
Prince was crying and Toya gave napkin to Paris and to him.
sorrow and grief 2:37 when I see those precious Michael's sweet polite children had to see their father laying there, as God was my witness I wished it was Sneeddon instead.
Yes! God is the only true king, but this song that the Andrae Crouch Choir sung was a great song to sing at Michael's memorial service when his brothers brought his casket in during the entry of the start of the service. Just to point out to everyone that thought this was a show. It wasn't, it was a celebration of MJ's life and how much love and dedication he has bought to his devoted fans like myself, friends and his family especially his beautiful children.
Man when they started, my mom had tears pouring out of her eyes. I'll never forget this, i've listened to Michael all the time and i'm only 21 right now. It was like I was at my own family member's funeral, I even almost cried.
I still get chills watching this footage. I was outside the Staples Center during this Memorial service. This song is very powerful, its words refer to us seeing GOD, the real King...soon. Michael, respectively was a god on earth. I repeat, god, on earth. His fame was too large too powerful to mention.
I found Michael Jackson to be one of the most seemingly innocent people in show business. I believe he made mistakes just like any one else, I believe he was totally misunderstood for his genius. My deepest prayer for him was that someone would steer him into the direction of the Lord of Hosts and he would accept Yeshua as Saviour. I also hope that the song wasn't being used to glorify Jackson but to encourage us that we would some day see the KING of KINGS..
@xxtasha10xx i agree with you, i am not a christian im an athiest...and i definately dont believe in God, so the lyrics to me are also referring to Michael ♥ ♥ ♥ xxx
@jstrong151 And just who are you to proclaim who is god and who is not? Do you not remember that Jesus taught that even the least among us should be treated as you would treat Jesus/God himself? So in the future you should be careful in the future about claiming to know who is and isn't God. He may be right next to you on the bus, or could be the person you passed in the street... Judge not, lest ye be judged, and by the same measure.
The choir is under the direction of Sandra Crouch along with by her twin brother Andrae Crouch (who wrote the song about seeing Jesus, the King of Kings) on piano. The Crouches collaborated with Michael on several of his last albums including songs like "Man in the Mirror", "Will you be There" and others. He had a lot of respect for their work and they were friends along with their mutual association with Quincy Jones. You can see Andrae on the right side of the stage.

i think this song is amazingly appropiate, reffering to michael is gone and is with jesus. and that one day we will all see the King. and michael will be there too
Never in my life have I've seen when major networks pre-empt shows just to show a funeral for a celebrity. Usually this kind of coverage is reserved for the death of a head of state. It just goes to show that Michael Jackson had a special quality about him that made him worthy to be honored in such a profound way. It just amazes me to this very day.
just like every prophet that had to go through so much crap to get their message across, from prophet jesus to noah, to mohammad, to moses...any innocent person who tries to spread the divide message and goodness in this world will suffer because of the loser Satan and his loser friends. ur the loser in the end satan and god is always the winner. We love you michael. Thank you for making the world a better place.
Thank you for posting this but I wish you would have put the name of who these singers are. "A gospel choir" sings soon and very soon? Uh it's the Andrae Crouch choir. This is who Mike turned to for inspiration. they are not by any means just a gospel choir. They are angels sent to us from heaven to share their music. Andrae and Sandra are Legends......let's get it right. thanks.
Just to let y'all know, instead of arguing with these ignorant fools that have NO idea where Michael is right now, I flagged them as span, garbage, basura because that is all they are. Trust me when I say Michael knew Jesus and lived for Him only. You see Michael was metaphorically broken by the public as Jesus was physically broken for us. I am NOT saying Michael was Jesus but he endured these metaphorical beatings and STILL loved. He had nothing but love in his heart. RIP baby...
how can u sing songs about heaven at jaksons death? they should have song its a high way to hell cuz thats wear that cracker wanabe nigger went. thank god hes gone.
I tried not to cry when his casket came in, the song was so powerful and emotional that I just completely lost control of my emotions, it made me cry that day and it makes me cry now that I'm watching it.
I know Micheal acknowledged God, but what realy matters is weather I'm ready for Jesus coming, I'm i obedient to Gods word and I'm I an example, Im i influencing others to know God better. Thankyou for the song, it gives me more courage.
This is really beautiful. Sometimes I think of the people that say MJ is still alive and find a lot of proof in this memorial service - well if I were to believe that, this would be one of them. 'Soon and very soon we are going to see the king'. Rest in peace MJ.
Thanks for posting then. I cried then. I know I didn't know Michael Jackson personally, but I felt like he was a family member that died. I can't remember a single childhood memory without MJ music. NOT ONE!!
Jesus said the Greatest Commandment is that you love God with ALL your heart, mind, soul and strength. With THAT in your life, HOW can you NOT talk about God where ever you go?
Michael didn't. Then he dies.
Dead without the Light of God in him. Sure, there was a "light". He did good things.
READ THE BIBLE! There's ONE WAY! Any other way leads to Hell!
I didn't make the rules. Read the Rule Book: the Bible. Otherwise, go to Hell.
@kujo313 I guess that means that you knew Michael Jackson personally. I guess that personal relationship that you had with him qualifies you to speak on what was in his heart and his relationship with God. My guess is that you didn't. You didn't know him but yet you judge him. ANOTHER MORTAL MAN PLAYING GOD!! Who gave you the authority to judge??? Maybe you should re-read your bible and realize that ONLY GOD HAS THE FINAL AUTHORITY ON WHOSE SOUL IS GOING TO HEAVEN!!!
@hippotizer They are referring to Jesus as the King in the song, this is a song that they sung at his memorial, I guess they are saying they believe he is in a better place with the King Jesus. I have been listening to Andre Criuch fro over 20 something years now, since I was a child. Again that is who is referring to in the song.
@elefiore98 true..... sorry.... i thought u were just one of those people on that BS talking about he was still alive they caught him on video like ppl please grow up. if u dont believe me search for the vid. i apologize for assuming tho.
@kordarrodavis99 lol please. u r the one that is the servant u brain washed cunt because you are the one calling him the king. not me. a person only serves something they acknowledge as their higher power. and that is you. so u r the servant. i wish people would stop setting other human being equal to God. so dumb. ya'll r so brainwashed. but its not ur fault. ur just subconsciously hypnotized by the illumanti and dont even know it. but its whatever. he was only a human... not God.
If you were smart you would know i wasnt comparing Michael Jackson to god Michael was referred to ask the king so thats what i called him SO WHAT!!!! god is much more then the king.God cannot be defined because he is so worthy and high powered but some one like you always gotta start something because you are bored with your life and have nothing else to do but google big words that you cant pronounce but its ok i understand that your a little off in the head.
Wow i had to re-read what your dumb ass said you dont know shit bitch you say he was in illumanti how the fuck do you know.....you dont you dumb ass Bitch so shut the fuck up you dumb ass weak minded cunt.you are hynotized by rumors that you dont know shit about so when you get your facts straight contact me dumb bitch
@kordarrodavis99 lol u sound like u r hypnotized cuz u r in denial... trust me i know the signs... n what words did i google? lol u ok? u need some sex?
@AveolarD IT is ture look it up on google or go on Reflections On The Dance website. and, if you don't believe me go on Andrae Crouch's Facebook page. ask is it's ture and it will give you the answer.
Let's take a look at the lyrics of this GOSPEL song:
"Soon and very soon we are going to see the KIng....."
In this reference they are referring to God as the King, not Michael Jackson.
Goodness! Get over yourselves! The is only one TRUE King and that IS God.
Michael had never likened himself as such. King of POP was a nickname Elizabeth Taylor gave him years ago. The media often referred to him as the "self-proclaimed King of Pop, but that isn't true.
@honeybflyy21282 It's just a song you don't have to say all that gosh! In my head when i listen to this song I think of Michael not God. People have different views and let them keep them.
Are you stupid or something? My comment was to those haters who claimed that Michael's fans were likening him to God. I'll say whatever the hell I like, whether you approve or not, but why not ask me what I meant next time before calling yourself going in on me.
i like the song, but i don't like the fact that they used it towards "Michael Jackson" He was not the King, and never will be. There's only one King and that's GOD. His King of all Kings!
@MsOgren wasn't the song title, " we are going to see the king", at what time did they state or added in " soon and very soon, michael jackson's king, he is going to see the king"..... Michael was close with the Crouches and he loved the song, that's why it was chosen, if they changed it to Michael was the king, please let me know.
@MsOgren Michael was king here on earth. this is why i don't go to church because you people always have to make everything negative with your religious views. To me he is the king, king of pop , its a title he earned with his music. No one ever said he was a lord and savior. How can god be king of kings if theres only one king , like you said ? I'll continue to have my relationship with god at home , I dont need a church brainwashing me..god bless and L.o.v.e
@satanknight14 I'm so sorry you don't go to church because of other people, I pray that someday you can find a church, For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Matthew 18:20
~Both Opinions Are True~ ~God IS TheOne&Only King of TheUniverse~ ~And Michael is Also *A* King~ ~Michael Isn't *THE* King..God Is~ ~Michael Himself Has Said That~ ~OprahWinfrey Asked Him About That&Michael Said : "I Am NOT God..I Don't Try And BE God.but..I Try2Be Very God - LIKE..&To Please Him.."~ ~God Is Michael's ROLE-MODEL~ ~God Is Who Michael Looks Up2&Respects And Admires..God Is Who Michael Wants2Please~ ~God's MESSAGE..&Michael's MESSAGE Are One&The Same~ ~*~LOVE!!!~*~ :-)
@7DreamChild7 I know this is an old comment, but in the song they are referring to God King Jesus in the song. What they are saying he is now in a better with the King Jesus.
MJ was/is the King of Pop, but this song clearly meant more to him than that! 3 weeks before he passed he met with Andre Crouch- MJ asked AC to sing THIS song. He also asked AC 'What is the anointing of the Holy Spirit?' 'Why do people raise their hands?' and 'How do I make my music more spiritual?' They talked about Jesus,the Holy Spirit and prayed. MJ was very touched (the report says). There is also a video of AC in Norway (early 90s) talks about MJ & spiritual experience at end. L.O.V.E.
The word "king" is used symbolically in the Bible to signify someone who possesses supreme power.
God is referred to as a King in 1 Timothy 1:17: "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever & ever. Amen."
Revelation 19:16 is the main passage where "King of kings" is mentioned in relation to Jesus Christ. "On his robe & on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."
I just lost a classmate and they played this at his funeral. I immediately thought about Michael Jackson. It was very emotional. -Rest in peace Michael J. Jackson and Antonio B.- love you both and I miss you Antonio, could you let Michael know that I love him?
@garrybartley Hi Garry. As there were more than a few folks at the memorial service who had never heard the song before, of course they assumed the "King" was MJ. Of course, MJ knew the song very well and sang it with his friend Andrae Crouch as well as another song "It Won't Be Long" just weeks before he passed. Hence, that is why they used it for the memorial. I assumed most folks knew the story behind the song's use. Guess I was wrong. Peace.
I think that although, ultimately, they are referring to "God", they knowingly chose a song that uses the phrase "going to see the King", given that MJ was referred to as "The King of Pop". You can make little jokes at funeral too, you know (I'm planning to be hoisted up on strings from my casket to scare little children).

@kujo313 I guess that means that you knew Michael Jackson personally. I guess that personal relationship that you had with him qualifies you to speak on what was in his heart and his relationship with God. My guess is that you didn't. You didn't know him but yet you judge him. ANOTHER MORTAL MAN PLAYING GOD!! Who gave you the authority to judge??? Maybe you should re-read your bible and realize that ONLY GOD HAS THE FINAL AUTHORITY ON WHOSE SOUL IS GOING TO HEAVEN!!!

@hippotizer They are referring to Jesus as the King in the song, this is a song that they sung at his memorial, I guess they are saying they believe he is in a better place with the King Jesus. I have been listening to Andre Criuch fro over 20 something years now, since I was a child. Again that is who is referring to in the song.

If you were smart you would know i wasnt comparing Michael Jackson to god Michael was referred to ask the king so thats what i called him SO WHAT!!!! god is much more then the king.God cannot be defined because he is so worthy and high powered but some one like you always gotta start something because you are bored with your life and have nothing else to do but google big words that you cant pronounce but its ok i understand that your a little off in the head.

Let's take a look at the lyrics of this GOSPEL song:
"Soon and very soon we are going to see the KIng....."
In this reference they are referring to God as the King, not Michael Jackson.
Goodness! Get over yourselves! The is only one TRUE King and that IS God.
Michael had never likened himself as such. King of POP was a nickname Elizabeth Taylor gave him years ago. The media often referred to him as the "self-proclaimed King of Pop, but that isn't true.

@MsOgren wasn't the song title, " we are going to see the king", at what time did they state or added in " soon and very soon, michael jackson's king, he is going to see the king"..... Michael was close with the Crouches and he loved the song, that's why it was chosen, if they changed it to Michael was the king, please let me know.

@MsOgren Michael was king here on earth. this is why i don't go to church because you people always have to make everything negative with your religious views. To me he is the king, king of pop , its a title he earned with his music. No one ever said he was a lord and savior. How can god be king of kings if theres only one king , like you said ? I'll continue to have my relationship with god at home , I dont need a church brainwashing me..god bless and L.o.v.e

MJ was/is the King of Pop, but this song clearly meant more to him than that! 3 weeks before he passed he met with Andre Crouch- MJ asked AC to sing THIS song. He also asked AC 'What is the anointing of the Holy Spirit?' 'Why do people raise their hands?' and 'How do I make my music more spiritual?' They talked about Jesus,the Holy Spirit and prayed. MJ was very touched (the report says). There is also a video of AC in Norway (early 90s) talks about MJ & spiritual experience at end. L.O.V.E.

Yes, the King is God.
However, this song was chosen because Michael was also a King. King of Pop.
If anyone wants to talk about about God go on a different video. This video is about King Michael....

Not a religious person at all. But growing up Black in a Black church(and having common sense)...
The "King" that is refrerred to in this song is God, not MJ. Come on, how silly do you have to be NOT to get this???
hillsofnewport 2 years ago 16
Amen my friend :-D. God & His Son Jesus is King
The word "king" is used symbolically in the Bible to signify someone who possesses supreme power.
God is referred to as a King in 1 Timothy 1:17: "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever & ever. Amen."
Revelation 19:16 is the main passage where "King of kings" is mentioned in relation to Jesus Christ. "On his robe & on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."

catzpaw3 2 years ago
@garrybartley Hi Garry. As there were more than a few folks at the memorial service who had never heard the song before, of course they assumed the "King" was MJ. Of course, MJ knew the song very well and sang it with his friend Andrae Crouch as well as another song "It Won't Be Long" just weeks before he passed. Hence, that is why they used it for the memorial. I assumed most folks knew the story behind the song's use. Guess I was wrong. Peace.

ok, now garry thats just a stupid pointless comment youve posted right there.
theyre NOT reffering to MJ as the king, theyre talking about GOD. i agree with hillsofnewport.
iRockSkinnyJeansz 2 years ago
I think that although, ultimately, they are referring to "God", they knowingly chose a song that uses the phrase "going to see the King", given that MJ was referred to as "The King of Pop". You can make little jokes at funeral too, you know (I'm planning to be hoisted up on strings from my casket to scare little children).
