My daughter who has suffered from mental illness all her life, was on a weekend pass 8/18/24, was on KZbin listening to her favorite gospel song , in particular Richard Smallwood, and this song was on her hit list. It bought back so many memories. She's my miracle daughter, and no matter what she goes through, she knows her Redeemer lives ❤ "Have you heard." Sooooo beautiful 😍 😊

[@JoycePierce-q1c]

I thank God for this song especially because it helped move my depression

[@josephdozier401]

I was a member of this great choir during this recording and we were an annoited group of believers who loved to sing and praise the Lord. Our group was so talented and our leader, Elder Andrew Butts was truly a man of God, sent by God. WE ROCKED ALL 3 RECORDINGS, AT THE MASONIC TEMPLE IN CLEVELAND, THE STUDIO IN CLEVELAND AND SEVERANCE HALL IN CLEVELAND. GOD BLESS THE ENTIRE GROUP. LOVE REV. J DOZIER

God waking me up around 3am or 4 am, just start praying, praying for my entire family🙏🙏

[@blackbeehoneyjustice4all686]

When I'm at my lowest at a time such as this. Everything I've worked for has been stolen and destroyed. My home deed was stolen. My property was destroyed. Everything I worked for all my life the enemy has stolen Yet I hear ...that Jesus is the Greatest ! But I say.. 🗣️Thou he slay me Yet will I trust Him He is the Greatest Have you Heard ... It's alright now

[@carolcarter2144]

Wow, God has cleared the way for a miracle. He has taken away what you worked for, to make room to give you what He has prepared for you. Trust Him! What God gives you no man can't take away. You can't even reject the blessing he has for you so prepare yourself to receive it. Try HOLD ON HELP IS ON THE WAY. It's another old but goodie. Hallelujah

[@mrsjr5033]

I just listen over, and over and over and over. He's a lifter, yes he is!

[@stephonwatkins9873]

Was in the oilfield working today and the Lord stirred this song in my spirit....he is the greatest

[@typrsn1]

You're welcome. This is the original version. Eva Sims lead both this and the GMWA version.

[@karenjohnson6126]

Praise the Lord! I listened to this song when I was younger & it blessed me & it still blesses my soul now. He is the greatest friend of all! Thank you Lord! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Texas_Nita]

Wow! I haven't heard this song in so long. I forgot how it could move me. Now I can't stop playing it. As I am writing this, I'm about on the 5th replay...

[@murrietharpe790]

He's the greatest friend of all.glory to your most precious name.

[@georgeanddenisebrinson6668]

Hallelujah have you heard? Yes Jesus loves you. What a friend we have in Jesus. Have you heard?

[@kieshacollier4942]

My favorite part is when they sing "ye-s Je-sus lo-ves yo-u...have you heard. Chills because its so true. Sometimes when we're going through we forget that Jesus is the greatest friend of all that we can talk to day and night. He won't tell anyone he just listens, and if you do happen to shed a tear, he'll be right there to wipe it away!! Guess what you feel so much better because you know the greatest friend of all is right there.

Healed my Bobby back in 2004 from cancer, a fast running cancer, was said it would be through, chemo, and I was, I waned the surgery, It was the best, but the cancer was going, and shrunk as God , promised. We all know we will not live forever, as Lazarus, died again, but it sure increases you faith in God, when he shows up for you.

Glory to God he's the greatest you can call on him I tried him have you heard

[@itsdynomyte]

Actually it was originally released in 1992 on cassette locally as the Ohio Mass Choir, and the song was originally called "He's the Greatest". Redemption records picked up the recording a year and a half later and distributed it nationally. GMWA later recorded it at the 1993 Convention in Indianapolis as well.
