  • Ohh God I Need You , Im Calling ON Your NAme Good Asking U Too Fix ME Heart Good Turn These troubles , Aroundd I CAll It Already Done In Jesus NAmee YEaa Godddd !

  • Yes Yes Lord !!

  • THANK YOU JESUS

  • Lord, I'm 16 and I've never fully experienced the struggles of our people. But I tell u one thing, I can feel every emotion that comes with this song, it moves you, especially as an African American, it takes you back and fills your spirit. After all the storms we have been through, the lord has heard our cry. Wow, it makes me appreciate when I was born, it makes me appreciate my privileges, and of course our President even more.

  • Yes Lord I miss these songs being sung in the church. When I was a little girl and they would sing this and I didnt know why everybody would be crying and such and now I do know whats its all about. Thnk you JESUS for hearing my cry.

  • Love this song but the person screaming is annoying ,but still gets the message across.

  • Thank you so much for posting. I am a child of the sixties, and I watched my matriarch sing this in church in Mississippi, and I never knew the words, but the feeling I got that has followed me through adulthood, was that the members all shared a commonality of sheer sorrow from the tribulations of the South. I knew my family had seen the issues of civil rights and had been through boycotts, picketing, and segregation...I listen to this, and am back at Salem Baptist Church as a child.

  • This is my grandfather...

  • THATS CHURCH!

  • @VITO69100

    AMEN!

  • Its the old memories and sermons such as this that Fuels Me to goin on, go on go on and FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH!!! Because in the End ther will be no need for STRUGGLIN, RESISITING,OR SACRIFICINGS because when we're HOME in HEAVEN the fight or War will be OVER....BUT as for now my Brethrens WE FIGHT..We Fight against Sin,Ourselfs,and this World as well As the Devil and ALL of his Forces!!! AS the WORD said FOR YOU HAVE NOT RESISTED UNTO BLOODSHED. BUT WE WILL BE VICTORIUOS IN THE END.

  • Yes indeed, fond memories of this when I was going to church with my grandma and granddaddy in Mississippi. I wish they would sing this today in church. It just gets your spirit moving!

  • i love this. some churches don't sing this anymore. sad.  takes me back to my young days in church. i'm only 28

  • just like it should be sung,,,,or moaned I did understand it at 12,,, but at 49.....it's all there

  • This song has to be moaned out! Sometimes your soul cries out to the father & words get lost. It sure feels good on my spirit right now!

  • this this good stuff, the way its supposed to be sung! not up tempo. Thanks for persevering! Im Repin Eutaw, and Tuscaloosa Alabama!

  • My granny's favorite hymn!!!! But it is sooooo strong and powerful, you can't help but SHOUT! I LOVE THE LORD!!!!!

  • I might be young but i love the lord... He help me though out the difficulties. When i down he just lifted me up.. Hallelujah. Thank you lord... You been so good to me..

  • is there a way u could email me dis track

  • This takes me back to being 5 or 6. I would sing my heart out to this song. I was a teenager when I finally got the words right, as a little kid I would just moan, but I knew I was singing my hear out to my God. Thank you for this post, I was blessed by it!

  • Thank you for viewing and your comments.

  • @imPSYCHkick LOL i didn't know all the words until i was grown :-/ i didn't know that they just repeated the verse...i use to be like what are they saying? i'd just moan along with it too lol

  • @imPSYCHkick And my son used to sing this when he was 2 and 3 years old too. I'm gonna have him listen to this and I hope the spirit hits him, he ohh so need it right about now!!!

  • I just closed my eyes, and listened. Think about the first time that song was sung. It's a negro spiritual, so it wasn't made in the best of times. Think about how deeply this song affects you, then think about what "they" felt when they sung it. It is one of the purest forms of hope ever felt through a community. They probably never saw freedom all those hundreds of years ago, but it survived all the way to this day, where our very own president wears their skin. Now.....listen to it again.

  • @CuttyMonsta this is an example of the undying faith of our ancestors, these spirituals are powerful. Thank ya !!!!!!!

  • this is god at work takes me back when i was a child reminded me of my grandmother brought tears to my eyes i could hear her thank u lord

  • Thanks so much for viewing. God bless you!

  • This is the WAY this is supposed to be sung...gives me chills down my spine!

  • Thanks!!!

  • Thanks for uploading. I needed this.

  • i love this song, because it is so true.

    the lord hears each of our cries.

    if you find yourself in trouble, call on him, God is a waymaker.

  • Awesome; nothing like these old hymns. You can just feel the power of God.

  • The Rev. Terry Brazely sings before each of his sermons and this is one of the more frequently used songs. He usually tears the church up with this and occassionally begins to shout himself before his sermon. This song is so great and packed with such a divine anointing and when you can get an elder of the church to sing one could just imagine everything that they've been through to say "I LOVE THE LORD HE HEARD MY CRY". Yes he did hear my cry!!! Praise His Holy and Righteous Name!!!

  • It is something about these old time songs that have a deep spiritual connection with the soul.

  • All praises to our Heavenly Father! Does anyone have the words to this song?

  • This singing is so good. The spirit can come right on in. It's wonderful. What praise!! to Him be the glory. He's worthy to be praised like that.

  • do yall remember......"theres a man by the river, giving sight to the blind......if you see my mother, tell her everythings alright..... said i wouldnt give nothing for my journey now.....

  • @MzMuPhiEpsilon

    did you ever find a recording of that song with those lyrics?

  • im only 22 years old....i've been looking on ares for these types of songs all day long!!! i grew up on this type of music, my mother, my mothers mother, and my mothers mother sang these songs!!! working in the fields and singing is what i remember them taking about, my great grandmother use to work in the fields picking cotton....i needed this today!!! I just need the lord to work it out for me... i would rather have church like this anyday!!!

  • This type of singing is so prescious. I will be 48 this year and this song was apart of my childhood. My parents and their parents and their parents. They knew this by expirence my father was born in 1915 and my mother in 1920. My father's grandfather was born in 1844 and lived until 1928 no doubt a former slave from Arkansa that had moved to the southeast corner of the show me state. A town called Wardell and he remained in New Madrick Mo the rest of his days.

  • Thank you for viewing and sharing. I just love the "old traditional gospel songs" from back when I grew up. I'm 52, and I have seen gospel change over the years, but thank God, some of us still have the old Gospel to keep going on.

  • "Missionary Baptists" singing old school accapella. Once upon a time there was a chior and there was no band, no electric organ, no piano, just the annointed spirit of God manifesting himself through the voices and hearts of believers.

  • Hey my god this is true church my god my my my im 17 and This is real church we need some more church to go back to the real whorship and get foreal wit jesus

  • Thank you Qgreen123, God bless you!

  • Oh my goodness I miss my grandaddy so much. I cannot beleive I am hearing this. WoW !!!

  • IKR THIS IS MA GRANDDADDY TO...

  • was this at a funeral or regular worship service

  • Regular worship service,

  • YESSSSSSSSS!!!! CHURCH! This is church that don't nobody know nuthin bout these days! everybody wanna shout and run but this is sho nuff worship!

  • Ive been looking for this! Thanks!

  • Now this is what I call having church. Do you remember not having cushions on the pew,not having air conditioning, the Martin Luther King paper fans, and the sound system that had to be adjusted every Sunday?

  • I was there, thanks for viewing!

  • Thank you Dr. Watts !!!

  • You're Welcome! Thank you.

  • This is beautiful. I closed my eyes and went back 40 yrs. I could see my grandmother and the others singing this song . A feeling came over me that I have not felt in a long time. ( TAKE ABOUT A RUSHING MIGHTY WIND) I am told that my mother still sings it at the Unions. I love Kirk, J Moss and the others, but, it takes something just a little deeper. And, when you want deep, this is the well I like to visit. It gets under your skin to the very marrow of your bone. SAY AMEN SOMEBODY !!

  • Thank you..................... Sis. Geneive Jones--you just don't know how you influenced my life singing it just like this.

  • this is what i call gospel...gets into your soul.

  • yes, this get to the very soul of me,,,,whether I'm driving down the road, pissed off over a business deal or doing something I know I ain't got no business doin' it comes back just like this, just like it did when I was seven years old hearing a lady(a sister of my home church about 75 years old singin;' it

  • Do any churches other than Primitive Old School Baptists sing like this?

  • I really don't know!

  • why primitive?kinda harsh...

  • No negative intention my friend. This style of singing was pioneered by the early churchfolk in the "Old", "Original", "Hard-Shell" or "Primitive" Baptist faith prior to the Black Rock Address when the Baptists first split. This is the way that most of the current (not Progressive) Primitive Baptists still sing. I have sometimes heard some COG members sing this way, but rarely. That is why I asked. Anyway, I love this song!

  • We do at mine. not primitive I dont think. But for my own record what is a primitive baptist?

  • They generally represent those who follow the traditions who ascribed to the original London Confessions of faith (circa 1600) and the through the Black Rock address principles they separated themselves from the other Baptist churches which took a missionary society stance.

  • yes, we sing these "old 100's" as we call them, every sunday...

    This is how we start our devotion, folllowed by a deacon praying...on bended knees of course...lol

  • oh, sorry...forgot to mention we ARE NOT primitive Baptist, just regular baptist folk.

    in fact i have never heard of primitive baptist, but that is probably because i'm so young

  • As long as you are a child of God, u can relate my friend!

  • Would anyone be able to share with me which Psalm this song is from in the Bible...would you be so kind as to message me? God Bless..I love this music.

  • Comment removed

  • The Musicians need to stop playing. This type of song dosent need music. We sing them all the time. If you notice it's hard for the musician to follow. It is ususally done without music.

  • yeap...no music... should always be w/o music

  • By the way, I'd love to see the visual on this annointed prayer call. Sounds like the Lord was burning or getting after someone's behind or doing some cleansing with all that whooping going on. True Holy Spirit gettin is a thing of the past, at least at those places I've attended in recent years. True Reverence.

  • Gracious you, hammondman94! I'm sure you were an annointed little server and I know your Grandmama (may her soul rest in perfect peace) had you prayed up and taught you somethings that are missing in the world today as far as manners and etiquette are concerned. Living rooms are now for living but I don't mind have a room for specialness, for reverence and serious dealings, that kind of specialness is not even given to houses of worship anymore. It's come as you are, it's just not right.

  • Usually song or at least started by the Deacons during the time I was a church constant at Sunlight Baptist Church in Beaumont, Texas back in 1959 and beyond. Back when living rooms were off limits except to the Ladies Mission.Circle meetings hostessed with sweet watermelon slices and praise, all heaped up on the good china and served with all the etiquette of a bygone area. Anyone knowing of such a Baptist church in the Los Angeles/Long Beach area. Hit me back. Small congregations preferred.

  • LOL!!!! I am thirty-three, but my late grandmother in Coulumbus, Ga used to hold these meetings. Only way we used the living room was to enter the house. I remember I sued to be the server at those meetings.

  • I'm 24 years old and my grandmother would take me to church and they would sings this. Before I leave this earth I will now this. I pray God put in down in me and allow me to sing it with his glory

  • ever since i was a kid i would sing along but i never knew the words. talk about a powerful song all i cared about was saying i love the lord he heard my cry

  • Thank you so much for commenting and God bless you.

  • This is my Grandfather.. Do you have any of his Sermons? I have tapes, and no CD's

  • Rev.I V Mckenzie is your Grandfather! Are we talking about Rev. Mckenzie who use to pastor a church in Little Rock and in Marianna Arkansas?

  • Yes, Sir I am the oldest son of his daughter Sharon. Sherman and Joesph are my uncles. He use to Pastor Holy Cross right there on 12th Street in Little Rock, Rev Easter is there now. Do you have any of his sermons you could Post. In fact I just in Arkansas and preached at First Baptist in West Helena AR for Dr. Nathaniel Hull

  • Well, that is great!

    Rev. Mckenzie was my pastor as well as my

    Grandmother and her sister. He use to come over our house on Sunday's for dinner at least

    once a month for years. We were at New Hebron before we move to 12th st. I have two friends that right now belong to your uncles church, I believe it's Sherman. I visited once a few months ago with Dora and Evora who are my friends.

  • Do you have any of his Sermons you could Post? Are you a Memeber of Holy Cross?

  • Yes I have a few of his sermons and no I am not a member of Holy Cross. I use to be.

  • OMG!!! This is really a blessing!! I needed to be uplifted this morning and I googled Rev. McKenzie's name and your video came up and tears came to my eyes instantly listening to him singing.

    I grew up under his leadership at Paradise MBC in Kansas City, MO and I miss him and Sis. McKenzie dearly.

  • This is truly a blessing to me as well to hear from someone else who knew Rev. Mckenzie and Sis. Mckenzie. He was my pastor years ago before he moved to kansas. Thank you so much for viewing and God bless you.

  • I remember as a child, the Mothers or the Deacons would begin to sing this song. I knew the words, but had no meaning. But now that I am a "man" and have a relationship with God, this means so so much more to me than just a hymn. Makes me want to go back home and visit my home church.

  • Thank you so much for commenting and God bless you.

  • the c/m meter singing needs no organ or piano accompaning....it should be always done acappella....

  • My pastor use to sing this song when I was a child and it's a blessing now just as it was then. God is glorified.

  • WOW!!!!!!!!! This was recorded 30 years ago!!!! You are so right! Its still going strong right today!

  • i love the lord he heard my cry.. God has truly been good to me and to all... our church sings this.. Its inspirational everytime

  • Gos is good, sure is!!! Praise the Lord!!!

    It's amazing that I recorded this about 30 years ago and it's still going on, "strong".

  • Where can I get this song on CD?
