EVERY WORD IS SANG WITH MEANING...TODAY ITS SANG WITH A LOT OF FOOLISHNESS,CLEARLY NOT WHAT GOD INTENT..

[Hightea22]

Looking at my copy of the printed music, I would assumed Cora Martin worte it because that's what it states! Have a great day. 

[buddyeagle]

oh lord wash me! hallellujah!

[buddyeagle]

RACIST SONG? WHY WHITTE?

[damonemontez]

@buddyeagle good observation...

[khalil4ulove]

@buddyeagle I use to think that so incorporate: He'll make you purer than gold!!!!

[DefiantKembro]

This is brilliant on many levels. Sallie Martin helped invent "gospel" singing. Her singing -- the whoops and runs -- was considered wild, unconventional. Dorsey was wary of her at first but overcame his doubts and let her popularize his songs.

Thank goodness he did. From Sallie you can draw a direct line to Clara Ward & Marion Williams, and thus to Little Richard and Aretha Franklin, and thus to nearly every rock and pop and soul singer ever. Priceless stuff here!

And that drumbeat? WOW!

[justinbieberknut]

i remember when gospel did sound like this and it is what made me want to sing... i feel this music running threough my soul..... while today's music just sound catchy... i'd rather have song like this to guide my soul to the alter

"He'll Wash You Whiter Than Snow" words and music by Cora Martin copyright 1954 by los Angeles Gospel music Mart

[MrKITCHENTALK]

@Hightea22 I wonder who really wrote it lol

[volt4stax]

I bought this on a UK 45 EP in 1962! 4 great trackes and a nice pic of AB in his robes on the sleeve. AB came over to the UK in about 1963 with his Black Nativity show, Madeline Bell was in his choir and eventually stayed and settled in the UK

[TheFirecogicuk]

Hey I,m from the UK also. Madeline Bell sang with the rolling stone and was a friend of Dusty Springfield.

[lavoss64]

where can I buy this record or tape

[dfjkslsdfjkl]

lol...i was thinkin the same thing! gospel don't sound like this no more...

[Commentarian1]

Speak the truth and shame the devil. This is the most wonderful music I have ever heard.

[JayEm86]

You can buy the song on iTunes for 99 cents.

[lavoss64]

Nice , where can I find more songs like that ??

[jcbranh1]

This song has so much power. Where can I buy it?

[windofthespirit]

hey anyone ever notice that Henrietta Waddy from the Stars of Faith and Sallie Martin bear a striking resemblence?

[karma342]

WOW! This is just so wonderful! What year was this recorded?

[LeviPriest]

This is priceless!! Unforgettable!

[JayEm86]

Sallie was singing with authoritative power!

[HoneyHoneyBaby]

PurpleSnowman29, you truly have some great videos :-) This is gospel music at its finest!!!!!!

[PLATINUMFIYAH]

This is true GOSPEL MUSIC here! I love this, I feel every word they're singing. Powerful

[Commentarian1]

This is one of my favorite songs and I never knew the person opposite Dr Bradford was Sally Martin. WHat a strong voice she had!

[PierreGarin]

Two incredible personnalities of the Gospel sound! Wonderful!

[bigdaddyinaustin]

I like the version done by Aretha Franklin when she was singing in the church as a little girl..

[BABADUCATO]

WOW! I haven't heard this recording in 40 years! Baby, you tellin' my age.

[ElderJamesL]

I truly love this song. It brings back memories when the saints use to sing it in Church. We would have a shouting time by the time they finished singing. It carries a message within itself. It can't be beat.

[blaquestrength]

Good God from Zion! YES HE'LL WASH YOU!! This is my song now!

[appetancy]

Masterpiece! Sallie is just sensational. The song was composed by her adopted daughter, Cora Martin, who made super records with The Sallie Martin Singers and on her own. Charles Campbell, Sallie's pal from The First Church of Deliverance, rules that background. Bradford's piano is a grinding wonder.

[Darneloh]

Did Alex write this or did just arrangethis from a Dorsey song?

[PurpleSnowman29]

Small Fry I love the way you keep with my post, you and DaSourcepr06, be spying on me. lol. I'm a have to check my hymn books, i'll get back to you.

[wcta0608]

It's an arrangement from a hymn in the Gospel Pearl (the old beige paper cover).

[mrtheoneandonly83]

@Darneloh Cora Martin wrote this song.

[ahlordgod]

I have been listening to this song for years and had no idea that Sally Martin was singing along with Alex on this. I love it!

[kbolden07]

Sing ya'll

[PurpleSnowman29]

yeah, Sing Yall.  we want ever get these days back in this lifetime. lol.
