I miss this kind of music in our churches.... wow some people say that churches have evolved, I think they have become just like anyone else... you used to be able to tell such an obvious difference between Apostolic churches and other churches and folks knew who and what we were now everyone is just like everyone else.... wow, doesn't that sound like the end times....
wow i love this style of music...I wish I had grown up going to a church that sang in this style :) Im a music edu major with an emphasis in piano rt now...I want to play this style piano in church when i graduate
Sometimes life just weighs you down but if you bend down and let God lift the load you can go on. Why do we pray? You are only as tall as you can submit to his spirit.
Thanks for replying. Gives me reason to come back here and listen again. I'm in so much back and leg pain - scoliosis, major arthritis due to disability - but you know what I feel like going on.
Before seeing this I was so ignorant. I had no idea white people could reproduce the sound that us blacks mastered and made so famous. Kudos to the guy on the organ...
I love this, I love the new music in our churches. However we've lost that Pentecostal style and worship only we were known for. I live next door to the largest non-Pentecostal church in Lexington,KY over 12,000 members. On any sunday morning you can go in and other than speaking in tongues there is no difference in their worship and ours. Why must we be so anxious to embrace the newest wave to hit the church? Like I said I love the new stuff, but with it has come a new style of worship.
The POA has definitly evolved since this video. WoW! This is a good song, but I don't think you would ever here this song sung at the POA today. They have a new director since this video, and he has done a good job with keeping up with the times. His name is Kevin Howard. The choir is much much smaller not too.
Check out dclake's POA videos. I think you'd be surprised at the number of "old-school" songs they've pulled out in recent years. Even ones I didn't know about.
I think that's Kevin Howard on the grand piano in this video. The same guy is also directing the choir in my video "BOTT: God Is Here".
In response to ZestyMike48's comment about HipHop gospel music: I appreciate the HipHop gospel bcause it helps bring the younger generation n2 the scene. Hiphop Gospel gives them the type of music they can relate to but with God's word. I'd rather hear them blasting that than "F" that "B" and H-O-E! God comes 2u n a way that u recognize him & if they recognize him by listening to hiphop gospel, i say keep making it.
This has nothing to do with white or black. Color is not the factor here, God is! God bless the person that posted this! I sang this growing up in the Pentecostal church.
Yeah it is. It's cause the older singers and leaders here learned from the black church many years ago. They also taught us about the Hammond Organ and the Leslie speaker. Our music leaders went to some of our churches up north and brought this music back to us in the south. I was there. I know.
...Anyone else out there feel a bit more of the spirit when you listen to THIS than the new hip hop contemporary urban gospel Pentecost?.........TAKE ME BACK DEAR LORD.
Yes, Zesty. There is no comparison. There's just not. I miss this kind of music in the churches these days. It built us and brought us this far. A lot more of the Spirit.
