  • Patti, just giving her all, spiritually! Gotta love her.

  • Patti put the D in Diva and I mean that only in a complimentary way. She is above and beyond great.

  • Amen Sista Patti!!

  • I wish church was like this in Australia. We would all be there, probably seven days a week.

  • there is nobody like Patti LaBelle,Patti can do it all,Gospel,Pop,R&B,Jazz.

    she just have a gift that only God can give and she use it 2 her best.I can listen 2 her all day everyday.I love you Patti,U r truly 1 of da worlds Best Singers.

  • I agree...there should definitely be a DVD of this special...

  • After watching this, I just have to know: How is this special NOT on DVD? I mean, the Spirit of the Lord was all OVER this special. And this may not be Patti's best performance, but I've never seen her as touched as she was here. Only Patti could still work a stage with only one 6" pump on! PBS - DVD PLEASE!

  • @PiaJr I feel the same way. I would love to find it.

  • Somebody said Patti struggles w/Gospel cuz she aint used to doin' Gospel, what the ham do ppl look at? This womans givin her all and killin it!!! I love Ricky Dillard and his choir, they go for it!!!

  • I am a true fan of Patti, her voice says it all. The voice of the annoited and i would love to hear more Gospel Songs by her. The Spirit of the Lord is all over and through her.

  • That choir director is hilarious!!!

  • @krissy6161 Look up Ricky Dillard - he gives his ALL when he directs!

  • i don't no if whyy here in philly are selling them ? but if u contact pbs u might get lucky

  • fantastic show. Thanks! Is this recorded on a cd/dvd? I would like to buy it..

  • thank you Ms. Patti - you helped me to hold on with this one.

  • Patti is the best singer in the world. Just a DOUBLE QUEEN!!! I love her so much simply amazing.

  • @momoshemon I HIGHLY AGREE....

  • looks like she was getting mad at how they were playing the music lol

  • i remember this just like it was yesterday wow

  • I wish PBS would re-master the video to DVD and re-release it. SUPER fund raiser.

  • Does anybody know who did this song originally!?!?!?! My aunt used to blow this song back in the day for our church, and we did with the full live band and everything just like the album. I've been googling, and binging, and yahoo searching for it, but the video always pops up. I know that this song is almost 20 yrs old, but still should be findable (if that's a word. ;-D)

  • Yes! The original was by Milton Brunson and the Thompson Community Singers on the album "If I Be Lifted". Ethyl Holloway was the lead, she passed earlier this year. Patti had a different interpretation but are equally outstanding!

  • @antyonne I have the cassette. I've been trying to get the CD. There are some good songs on there.

  • i remember when this first came out its i love it now as much as then

  • I remember I gave all sorts of money out my pocket when they first aired this for the PBS fund support drive! They used to have some incredible specials on PBS back then, they were truly a beacon for art, history, and culture. Patti and the Chicago folks brought the tv house down with this one! Such worthwhile viewing...!

  • One of the Greatest shows on PBS. I had it on VHS - but it got lost THANKS VERY MUCH FOR THIS POSTING!!!!!

  • That background/choir soprano!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yes!!! i love her!!! lol

  • AMAZING and DRAMATIC SINGING WHILE GOING DOWN STAIRS.... WOWOWOW

    THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO...I thought people forgot about this...I was only 3 years old when I saw this and I remember it b/c my mom recorded it on VHS... I've to watch this recording MANY TIMES

  • This was beautiful. Going to Home to Gospel with Patti LaBelle! What was the name of that Choir in the balcony? I have been trying to find out for years! And what was the name of the song that they sang?

  • Ricky Dillard and The New Generation Chorale. Not sure of the name of the song, but there is a video of them posted by ChiOne07. Words posted there....

  • more abundantly..from their first album entitled the promise

  • Love this part of show, Patti reeeeallly singing and feeling it, giving her usual....above, abroad and beyond....go PATTI

  • OK that choir in the balcony was on f-i-r-e!

  • When she hobbles on one heel at the end, only Patti. Divine. She should release a limited edition of her gospel CD with this entire performance remastered to DVD

  • That Clark Sister's look on her face when Patti kicked that shoe off was like, "oh my she's gone mad" lol.

  • Ooops...I meant Barrett sister.
