    Do you know what year this was recorded? And what church it was in? I’ve played this video dozens of times – amazing, powerful, passionate performance.

    @SilentBlues23 We need to follow what the Word of God says, have our self right with the Lord Jesus Christ and stay close to God. By “staying right” with Jesus, is by first doing what Acts 2: 38 says from the Bible and keeping our walk with Him.

    @TheGalen62 Try to find a real, Bible preaching and Holy Ghost filled church of God in your area. I strongly consider that you seek Jesus Christ through prayer and go to a Christian church.

    Do what Acts 2: 38 says from the Bible, because you must be born again to see Heaven. Get to know the Lord. He really loves you and wants to save your soul from total condemnation. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the Truth, the way, and the Life.

    All the instruments in the world and special effects can’t compare to this woman’s voice and her message to listeners.

    I love Her voice – God has blest her – People sing gospel like its suppose to be sung…from the heart with the anointing – there is a place for entertainment and then there are songs that encourage the shekinah glory of god to be in our presence

    This was before the age of microwave gospel singing. Mahalia knows how to build a song. Don’t rush it like many of these singers sing gospel today. Come out of the gate like a racehorse.
