Grandmother sang this song to me so many times when I was little…and hearing it in church, or when we visited all the great aunts down south and Grandmother and her sisters would sing together…my happiest memories
was written by a white man
Thanks to Youtube, we whiteys have this! Yay!!
I love the piano in this song
Oh yes they do. I’m black, have been all my life. But let me tell you that there is no life in God’s eyes, and everyone is the same on the inside.
Lovely song. True
amen. such an true statment
James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
The Bible tell us all we have to do is believe, say we are sorry , and ask.He will hear and answer. The Lord is my helper, I will fear nothing man can do unto me.
Amen
JESUS A TRUE FRIEND WHOM WE CAN COUNT ON(24-7)AMEN
i met mrs. jackson a year before she died. she was very kind and gracious. rip to the queen of Gospel.
In my book the greatest gospel singer of all time – what a great voice and great woman.
American Churches.. Great stuff!
Can I get a “Thumbs Up” Amen? ☺
A most beautiful and marvelous rendition of this hymn from Mahalia Jackson. She was a great and wonderful woman , a true Christian, the salt of the Earth, may she be blessed by God and soar though the heavens on angel wings in eternal peace. God be with you and bless you sister!
What a blessing, hard to believe she died in 1972 and age 60, heavens gain but our loss so young.
Most people fall short of the ideals of their professed religion, some people are even truer and nobler than the religion they fondly embrace.
@gdl0748 i know thats right
I was raised Southern Baptist, but I’ve always been an agnostic. Listening to this wonderful woman’s songs makes me wonder if I’ve been wrong.
This is wonderful! Thanks for uploading 😀
I didn’t think so at first because Mahalia was very dark in complexion but when you look at her features they really say that there was a Native American somewhere in her family history. Then I researched it myself and found a couple of articles that lists her among famous Americans with Native American heritage and both articles say that Mahalia was part Choctaw ‘Indian’.
Actually I read in two different articles online that she was part Choctaw Indian. That’s the predominant Native American ethnic group in Louisiana and neighboring states…
