This is the most touching song written to music I believe. This is the testimony of what caused Thomas A Dorsey to write precious Lord.

Marion Williams is singing this song is full measure.

    Out of deep respect for Mr. Dorsey and for the song itself, I felt as though the great Marion Williams was holding her immense vocal talent back a bit so that the brilliance of the song could shine through.

    You know Penn, she probably was. But Dr. Dorsey loved Mrs. Williams voice so much, that he hand picked her to sing this song on this recording. A testimony to her anointed singing.

    Masterpiece.  The first gospel recording to be included in the National Registry of the Library of Congress.

    Amen!! SuperMasterpiece. I just thought everyone should hear this awesome testimony. I love Dr. Dorsey's testimony and I love Mrs. Williams as soloist.

    This song got me through tough situations. I love this song, thanks a whole lot. I was down on my last luck in the penitentiary when this song came on in my head phones and it just gave me this really warm feeling and all I could do is pray.
