Here's a video for gospel fans. I'm taking us back to 1994 when the late Godfather of Gospel Music, the Rev. Timothy D. Wright got a combination of over 15 choirs together to sing on the album, "Come Thou Almighty King", arguably the greatest compilation of gospel choirs ever formed. And only Timothy Donald Wright could deliver. The name the song is the same as the album. High-energy Northern, New York style gospel that will ascend you to the heavens. Rev. Wright is well known for his repitions and numerous rounds on his vamps, so you gotta have good lungs to sing a Timothy Wright song. God bless you, Godfather! I do not own the song, nor am I seeking monetary gains or publicity. I am simply posting this for those who would like to learn the lyrics of the song. If there are any songs that you would like for me to upload, let me know and I will try my best. God Bless!

  • "robbieatnsudotcom", I love coming to your site because one thing I do know is that Rev. Wright was not a "battler of words". You have many blessings upon you because you definitely keep confusion DOWN. God is not the author of that. Thank you for such a beautiful spirit. GOD BLESS!!

  • @MsMinisterS Bless you! The question is not whether we are saying the right words, but rather, is the RIGHT WORD being proclaimed. Thank you so much for your words of love and endearment. Peace and Blessings!!

    :-)

  • Ok, let's not get into a battle over the lyrics. The original hymn "Come Thou Almighty King" has the words, "Father all glorious, o'er all victorious.", and techinically, after listening to the words over and over, that's actually what the choir is singing. But, when other people sing it, such as the way my home church and many other churches do, it's "Father oh glorious, oh how victorious." Either way, it makes sense. No need to get upset. We're all getting blessed by the song.

  • @robbieatnsudotcom,

    If I may make a correction, the bridge is "Father all glorious, o'er all victorious," not "Father, oh glorious; oh, how victorious."

  • @amez4life You know what, you right. LOL. My church is in the country, and you know how everyone changes the words to make it sound right "for them." But you're right. Thanks for the correction.

  • @robbieatnsudotcom No problem at all. In fact, I just posted all the songs from this album about seven hours ago, so now you and everyone else on YouTube can enjoy them!

  • @amez4life Thanks for the info and the songs from the album. I plan on posting "I Won't Let Go My Faith" after I saw your video, so look for it soon. Thanks a bunch.

see all
