[Tigger]

I like his stuff

 

[tango]

I like a fair amount of his stuff but don't care for this one so much. I suspect because a church I went to that went way overboard with the silly hypercharismatic stuff used to sing it so regularly I grew weary of it.

I love his music.

I can't believe how often I've sung this in church and never heard this version or knew the artist.
We worship with alot of the things you might hear on the radio, but I don't really know one musician from the next these days.

It's funny, but my 'old days' I knew all the musicians, bands, music, had tons of albums, was in a band myself.
But now as a christian, I just can't seem to relate to it all the same way.
I love to sing in worship, (I try to keep in the back, so's not to offend others), and I wish I hadn't let my interest and abilities in music slip away so long ago.
This song seems to be among the favorites at my church, we have some fine singers in the congregation, and some really good worship leaders.

I also generally prefer live recordings (?) as opposed to studio cuts, lol, and at the 3:45 mark, it sounded similar to being in church. It felt good, and I'm sure the Lord is pleased. Thanks for posting this.
Chris Tomlin. Now I know. God bless you.

I love Chris! His music is amazing!

It sounds a lot like other chorus songs performed by a single singer with a decent voice.

My tastes go in other directions for sacred music.

My dad was a fan of the Walter Hawkins singers and he had a record of sister Rosetta Tharpe or something. He always said: I like the music, I don't listen to the text lol. Thanks to him I found out about them. It's not really relaxed though LOL.

Roots in American blues/jazz etc. :band::swing:
The bottom video seemed overdubbed but maybe the sound wasnt synced at first, but still very cool to see. Just played it for a preacher friend of mine at the laundromat, he remembers her.
The old train station converted to a staging area God blessed! :thumbsup:

He says he used to hang out with Walter Hawkins ppl at the Harvey House .... All the gospel folks would go there and hang out ... He met Count Basie there and once met Liberace lol, Staple Singers ....he went with the niece of Marion Williams.

I was playing Walter Hawkins just yesterday and thanking God for all He has done for me. I love gospel music like your dad, it's the rhythm of it I think. Something about it seeps deep into my soul. I like traditional, like sister Tharpe ,and some of the contemporary artists as well.
