  • This song really blessed my soul. Music has changed so much so that we need to always go back and grab a tune like this one. Be Blessed

  • (tears in eyes) Back then the saints really wanted to live for God, w/o excuses.

    I miss the purity of the saints back then. The taught us how to "tarry" and how to prevail in prayer..

  • Beautiful and powerful indeed.

  • @cgcade1 As many times as I've heard this song, I NEVER knew those ladies names! Man, they SANGGGGGG!!!

  • @evanglillianlloyd Yes!! REAL singing from the soul. You could fell this, and it pierces your very soul, and you saw results. Don't see this much anymore with all this modern day stuff. Some of it is ok, but overall, there's nothing to it.

  • Now, THIS RIGHT CH'ERE, is the version I'm familiar with! OH the memories! I know Mattie Moss/Clark sisters did it originally, and theirs is AWESOME! But, I kinda heart this version. Sigh, God PLEASE bring the days when gospel singers literally SANG THE GOSPEL LIKE THIS!!

  • Amen

  • luv this version... powerful altos and tenors

  • Could you download this on imesh.com. Blessings to you.

James Cleveland&VOC and The Clark Sisters version!!! They're both an inspiration and POWERFUL!!!! LOOVE IT!!!! I also like how the music stopped and they were still singing also!!! Beautifulll!!!
