thanks you so much for posting this song. I was raised the Hawkins family and have precious memories attached to this music. I cried when i heard this song because it took me to a precious time in my life and the music my mother embedded in me as a child just by playing this kind of music in the house. I have been looking for this song on iTunes and cannot find it. thank you again!
I have been looking for this song to .... wanted to teach to my last choir that i was playing for ...for now to late per not there anymore. But this whole album was the bomb I am surprise that it has not gotten more hits.
I remember when Patricia taught this song in LA like in '81 when I was in high school, before it was recorded for this project. I loved it then and then rrrreally loved it when I first heard it on this recording a few year later. I was like,"That's Pat's song!" I still love it today!
TIMELESS!!!!! I was 6 or 7 when this album came out and I still listen to my worn out copy of the album my mom had. PLEASE POST "Well Done" :)!!! We should request that it be re released on cd. This album is awesome!!
man u have got to get me a copy of that cassette...I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO LOCATE IT FOR YEARS!!! Thats the one that has I'll Go on it right? I will pay u anything for that copy..You would happen to have the 1988 special gift album that the family recorded would u?
OMG...I thought I would never find this song again. This is one of Edwin Hawkin's best albums. I wish it could be reproduced so I can add it to my i-Tunes collection.
Brother, you're taking me back to the days I use to sing this with the Black Voices of MS State!! I'm finding a lot of songs from my youth. Personally, this is singing!!
They don't write music like his anymore! Now I love Ricky, James, and Youthful Praise.....But i miss the cletar harmony without the vibrato. I miss the 70s, 80s, and some of the 90s sound!
Ohhhhhhhhh, soooo many memories! I wish I could have ALLLLL of these Music and Arts Seminar Mass Choir albums! I can't find them anywhere! I played this one til I couldn't play it no mo! lol
This is the best song on album, it was ahead of its time!!!!! I LOVE IT. I grew up singing this song in the choir, and then directing it! I have this on CD as well as LP!
YES.... this was the best song on this album....... and EVERYBODY slept on it and sang everything else on it..... but there were a FEW of us that knew the power of this song.... I SO miss music like this......
God Bless you Johnzoe777. This brings back memories!!! The church choir I sang in back in the day used to sing this and I believe our Minister of Music wrote this. She was involved with the Hawkins singing and playing and later joined their church in the 80's.
Could you post "He Shall Lead Us"? I used to have this tape, but loaned it out years ago and never got it back.
