I had to do alot of editing to make it look like this... I restored it to it's (almost) original quality! LOL! Thank you so much. Be Blessed! Elder Rodgers

[@napiest]

If the Lord permits it, I am leading my church choir back to this kind of singing. I'm tired of just singing a song. I want to touch lives and move the heart and mind into worship again! This clip was truly a blessing!

[@KMMJKR]

you are very welcome

[@meilee44]

Who is the guy in the white suit? He is very anointed! Wonderful praise!!!

[@TrevorWTillman]

what dvd is this??? i gotta have it

[@UncleDuTheWatchman]

I love Billie's ability to sing in whatever range she wants (kinda like Dorinda Clark has). She knows how to sing top like a soprano, alto like an alto, and her bottom range is RIDICULOUS. Love her!

[@ebegreg100]

Notice the unity amongst the singers. There appears to be no competition! And they felt what they were singing and did not try to outsing each other. They just sang together as one. Where has that gone today!

[@reginaross6719]

Old school the only way ........with feeling and from the heart.....

[@hazeljoynersmith]

No cultural appropriations here., Original, authentic, inspired by earthly struggles glorified by knowing God Almighty in song, no man can deny.

[@raymond6621]

I wish gospel was still like this mySPIRIT is moved!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING. GOD BLESS YOU

[@MKD825]

But Billie tho 😕🤣👍🏼💖😆😘

[@cnorslay2072]

Delois Barrett Campbell and her sisters were so gifted. Their style of singing is no longer appreciated as much as it once was, but for their time, they were pretty awesome. And their passion for their music and ministry is still seen in the like of some of today's gospel artists like CeCe Winans and Yolanda Adams.

[@loveyu2778]

This is the real deal..this is what I grew up on..thanx Mother for having this music in the house...

[@margaretbabb8131]

I love this song and it really blesses my soul especially when Billie sings. She sings from the depth of her soul. Sorry to hear that she and Deloris has passed on to that great heavenly home waiting for their reward.

[@need4HIM]

Never grows old. The anointing of the Holy Spirit is yet upon this ministry performance. I can't get enough of it. Thank you for posting.

[@JayDrewGWP]

I'm only 16 but I know we need singing like this today. . . This is REAL SINGING right here!!!! SINGING FOR GOD AND NOT FOR SHOW!!!!

[@abbyburkett2350]

IThanks I n Biji night ink job joi

[@davidmolina7543]

Amen.

[@KMMJKR]

Praise the Lord… you should be 26 or 27 now… are you still walking with The Lord?! I haven’t stopped praying for you! Keep going!

[@RevBobAldo]

Gospel Music is more than a message - although the message is very important. Gospel is also a particular traditional musical form - a classic genre - a magnificent musical achievement of the spirit. It must not be lost just to "get modern"! This is real Gospel Music.

[@lindawyche6837]

James Cleveland was a singing man! May God rest his soul. RIP Brother Cleveland and to all the others who have gone on💖

[@ceemac5656]

I cant stop crying, those angelic voices, they sung this song and it touched my soul, it touched my Spirit, it let's me know that the Holy Spirit is here, thank you for posting this. To God be the Glory for those beautiful voices! Amen!

[@candicemcneill5484]

these people MENT WHAT THEY SANG ABOUT!!! can we please get back to this!! 😫😫😫

[@Exodus4259]

DOES ANY ONE REMEMBER WHEN THE CHOIR SANG LIKE THIS? GOOD JESUS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE....

[@davidvalleysr.8223]

Brings back old memories of days long gone.

[@iorioriorio]

great hearin James....I remember a sister in hartford who gave me a whole bunch of his savoy records, the 1980's were terrible for me, I went through hell, but I was saved in '83 all the same...i'll never forget those days!!!! The Lord brought me thru it all!

[@lindawyche6837]

Y'all singggggggg! This song ministers to soul. Nothing like when my sisters and brothers get together praising the Lord, what a time we have! My Lord! This was the times when we all sung together without trying to out-sing the other! What happen to those days? Now days everyone for themselves. Lord help us all!! Thank you Kingdom Mined Ministries and Pastor J.K. Rodgers!

[@karenharris7170]

This is beautiful. R.I.P. Albertina Walker, James Cleveland, Delores Barrett, and Inez Andrews.

[@bigchulo8839]

I love everything about God. please pray for my family to be restored. we have been robbed so much.mostly out of time.Then money.😶

[@jonitajohnson6874]

Today, they want to classify these songs as 'funeral songs'. There is power to draw in these songs... I don't think a lot of churches today know what to do when the Spirit of the Lord comes within our midsts...

[@bladezone1]

This is the real thing!! YES LORD!!!!!

[@FredAltonBrannen]

This is awesome! Brings back so many memories of my visits to the Melpomene Street Baptist Church in the early '50s. As a young white boy - I was thrilled to see and hear this kind of spiritual singing. Altho I'm now 71, I'm still blessed deeply by the Spirit of the Holy One as I listen. God Bless you for posting this great song.

[@oranges18]

Now this is what I call true Gospel music. The harmony is unbelievable and Rev. James Cleveland can direct a mass choir like no other and he sure can hit those keys on the piano. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to seeing more of your post.

[@ethelstevenslove2957]

You can't just watch this footage once.......So great!

[@pinkiescott672]

I love this type of gospel music ❤️ This is music of a people before the ills of the world seeped into every fiber of pure behavior. It’s still in us. We must get real again and put God back in our hearts❤️ Jesus never left us. He has promised to defend us only a 👀 look ... He’s still merciful and True! 🙌🏾

[@kronk99]

Thanks for posting as soon as I heard James Cleveland talking and calling names, I almost went in.....THEN he put ALL the Barretts on soprano?!?!? OOOOOOOooooo-wwweeee this is the gospel truth. No autotune, no tracks, no synthesizers drowning out the singing, no reverb on the mic, no click tracks. Just a piano, a B3, James, and some monster sangers!!! Yes, I said, SAAAANGERS!!! BILLIE IS MY FA-VO-RITE!!! Get the sheets!!!! OOOOWWWwww!!!

[@audreysmith4348]

Today 2021 we need this song. Slow down and explain in a simple song? Gods wonderful love for us.

[@dajones32301]

Absolutely awesome! Deloris Barrett Campbell range is awesome and indescribable. Her sister's lower reigister is phenomenal. Her soprano is unbelievable--You go girl!

[@KMMJKR]

That second lady is Billie Barrett Greenbey she is the second oldest sister of Delois Barrett Campbell of The World Famous Barrett Sisters from Chicago! Look them up on this channel "The Barrett Sisters" Kingdom Blessings! Elder JKR

[@tempiemiller6349]

Wow what a wonderful gift they were given, they are greatly missed.

[@feliciasmith2033]

this is gospel...i dont know what all this hippity hop foolishness they playing and singing these days, its a mess. thanks for the post!

[@donaldmiller4643]

I love the Barrett sisters Billie your one of the greatest voices ever in gospel

[@DocMyers]

I CRY EVERYTIME I HEAR THIS SONG! Billie Barrett GreenBey sang this song!

[@GeeQue03]

Very underrated, yet spot on observation. Her control and knowledge of her own voice was impeccable

[@titusduru4040]

One of the best gospel song I have ever lived to listen to may God bless you rev Cleveland

[@LindaSmith-ys4io]

Praise God For All The Saints They Knew How To SANG!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👼🏾👼🏾

[@JewelsR4ever]

I have loved the Barrett Sisters since i saw Say Amen Somebody years ago. Neved heard anyone like them. This cut always makes me smile. Ya'll sho nuff singing!!! May this music live forever.......

[@markharrington2787]

I must disagree with the observation that The style of singing of Delois Barrett Campbell and her sisters “is no longer appreciated.” Those women and their style are treasures that will always be appreciated. I understand the love and warmth behind the observation. But comments such as that left by Jalen Parsley - a 16 year old, show that this appreciation lives on and is, and always will be, appreciated, celebrated, and loved. The Spirit of the Lord is in this music. Nothing can prevail against this!

[@tttt6811]

Praise God!!!!! I so miss this type of soul searching and soul moving singing. It truly was heart felt and would definitely lead one to repentance.

[@lizjackson8845]

It gets me EVERYTIME!!!

[@gavsmom05]

I keep coming back to this song! It is really blessing me. I wonder what year this was.

[@KMMJKR]

Funeral songs usual help people get through. I'd take this form of gospel expression over what is being offered today. I don't know what to call today's form of worship. It's been picked over and tidbits of "The Good News" remains. Sad. Really. Thanks for watching! Elder JKR Kingdom Blessings!

[@oreokookie1000]

I grew up on the beatles and rock music, and I thought that was it!...but after i got saved, I heard some James Cleveland music, and a whole universe was opened up to me!!...what a privelege to own some of those savoy records James sings on.

[@YTChango1]

Deep Religious/Spiritual Warm Water in The Wells of Their Deep Soul!

[@dontehaymon9691]

The Bentley sisters I love them to death James Cleveland oh my God I watch them all my life. The Barrett sisters .😎😎😎😎😎😎💜💙

[@gfar4]

This brings back memories of the kind of singing I grew up listening to in that little wooden church in the country. Classic gospel at its best... I love it!!!

[@maxinehuff5939]

Wonderful, just wonderful to see and hear the gospel from the great maestro "Rev. James Cleveland" and the altar-call to these "Gospel Greats" including Mitty Collier, Inez Andrews and Ms. Barrett singing in beautiful harmony. This was soul-stirring and up-lifting. Thanks for the post.

[@San47di]

Oh How the Barrett Sisters have truly Blessed All of us over the Years! I will Never forget them!! :-)

[@VincenzoPickatelli]

These tears of joy just come as I listen. Only a look.

[@imjustlooking888]

I taught this song to the Senior Choir at my church when I lived in Virginia Beach. A lady named Sis. Esther Downing led it and KILLED it!!

[@DeJaAjed]

Totally Awesome!!! I truly love all who performed but none more than the Barrett Sisters and James Cleveland! The Barrett Sisters have always been able to sing ANYTHING and still keep that harmony! What a Blessing!!! Thanks ever so much for the post!

[@TheOne-wo5gb]

Sermon in a song!!!!

[@aleechaadams9917]

✝️🔥✝️I HAD TO PLAY THIS AGAIN 🔥✝️🔥 ✝️

[@TheJmcduff50]

Up on the stage is Gloria Griffin (she is the 4th person from the left). She is the woman in the black suit with the white shirt, open collar. This is Ms Gloria Griffin who was also one of the Roberta Martin Singers. When you see the famous color photograph of the Roberta Martin Singers, she is the young Gloria Griffin, second from the left! It is so WONDERFUL to see and hear those who actually made the history we now enjoy and read about.

[@PraiseHim718]

Please carefully re-consider the expression OMG. These days it is a slanderous expression and treats the very name of God Almighty with such disrespect. Oh My God! Do you really mean that or is it a popular acronym that has dragged our Father's name through the mud of "cool" things to say in the last decade? I love the music, I love giving the glory to God. Let's think clearly about how we use the name of Him who has saved us.

[@mrmusic1961]

I am about to have "da big one" listening to this classic song. In the words of Hezekiah Walker " We don't praise Him like this no more." Thank you elder for posting this. I think I will teach this to my choir next week. Its time for the CHOIR to be the CHOIR again, and sing songs everyone can relate to. This is one of them. One look @ Christ still brings salvation.

[@lindalyte7307]

BEAUTIFUL 🙌🏾🙌🏾So grateful to have grown up in an era....when we had " Devotion" the Deacons would pray on their knees/ Our choir and other choirs( depending on which Sunday it was....1st 2nd and so on) would march down the middle aisle up to the choir stand.... we would also have/ sing Congregational Songs.... as well as an A and B selection by the choir....anyone remember those days? We had " Church" back then at St.Paul Missionary Baptist Church....things sure have changed in Churches today....sign of the times,I guess. Peace and Blessings to All 🙏🏿🙏🏿 2/2022

[@MsMinisterS]

Thank you Elder Rodgers. This brought tears to my eyes. I want "Only A Look". I felt the anointing of the Holy Ghost. This was History singing about His-Story. I cannot go forward without remembering the bridge that helped me crossover. This was "true" choir singing. Rev. James Cleveland made sure the choir members were in the "correct" spot. Once again, thank you and have a beautiful Sunday. Please keep Rev. Andrae Crouch in prayer.

[@VincenzoPickatelli]

I simply can not hold back the tears every time I listen to this video. For it is all oh so true............Only a Look,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and I was healed,,,,only a look and I was comforted, only a look,,,,,,,,,,,and I was saved..........Ohhhh Lord Jesus I love you sooo much.

[@TWU1993]

I love you James Cleveland. You have been blessing me with your songs for over 40 years. When I was a child I visited your church and you actually held my little brother ( who is 38 years old now) and prayed for him. You were 1 in a million.

[@epaphrasmalale4350]

Praise the Lord and Happy New year to you all out there.... I am very happy and blessed for listening this in 2020🙏⛪. Beautiful voice and creativity in singers 👇

[@damonemontez]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO, EVERYTIME I WATCH IT I'M JUST OVERJOYED ALL OVER. PEACE & LOVE.

[@jppontat3909]

This is God's work. Thanks

[@sissimpson]

I thank God for this selection. I thank God for Dr. Mattie Moss Clark and all her contributions. I think though that choirs have been dividing into sections since before the inception of the Fisk Jubilee Singers!

[@thekaerichtexas]

Albertina will always be my favorite. I just love her voice

[@Connieaka]

My mother used to take me to all those conventions with James Cleveland, I remember the Martin singers when I was a little girl, this takes me back and keeps my mother's memory alive

[@spartansrace4293]

Say Amen, Somebody! I pray that churches will return to these sanctified songs of Zion. To destroy the worldlyness that's in today's churches This is not a funeral song, but a song of Salvation and Deliverance

[@bricktothehead]

Yes. Yes Sir. Yes Lord! Absolutely wonderful! I love old school gospel music!

[@tjbrad02]

NOOOOOO... Actually all of them can sing 1st Soprano. They have a good range though.

[@DeeRayJr]

Ooohhhweee they having CHUUCCH‼️‼️‼️‼️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@kimdavis9950]

I played this just now while praying for all those suffering in Missouri (misery) today. God bless us all and lead to a peaceful resolution as Dr. King would have wanted.

[@queenmajesty5163]

You can hear the "prayer" & the praise" through the entire song. Blessed be the name of the Lord!!!

[@richieanthony8523]

I'm still watching in 2020!

[@gabriellemccarey4306]

This brings me so much Joy

[@fnihp30]

@xavieryoyo I'm 33 and I agree. But I will knock "new school" gospel music. I almost don't want to call it gospel music because itis so "worldly" inspired! Most new school gospel singers are singing for fame and money and not to the Glory of God! That is the difference with contemporary and new school gospel music!! Old school gospel singers were not paid much to sing and they simply sung to the Glory of God and God took care of them anyway!! GLORYYY!!!!!!

[@PHILOULOW]

I remember, sixteen years ago back in 1992, I spent Christmas at Delois Home with all her Family which is my american one . God bless you My Spiritual Mothers Philippe from France

[@quentinwilliams6354]

I'm all for everyone expressing their humble opinions, but if you gave this a thumbs down I only have one thing to say to you. "Just keep on living and on one great and dreadful day you will know why this song and the ministry of gospel musicianship is truly a great gift from God. (And when I call on God I am calling on the Masculine and Feminine presence of the Sovereign One. Amen/ASHE. Everyone please have a peaceful and blessed 🙌 day and don't forget to watch your back.

[@simplycharming46]

JE-SUS my Lord!! This is sho nuff singing... hallelujah.. praise Him praise Him!!

[@timbenisrael5763]

I love this song, absolutely. I'm a repentant Hebrew Israelite, straight up and true. I love this because I get this. We are a people made to praise and serve The Most High in spirit and truth. Its our mission according to scripture. I hope and pray our people get back to the laws, statutes, and commandments of YAH, regardless of the evil and wickedness and foolishness of those who came before us.

[@86rouge]

Wow, I grew up with this. This is what Gospel music is! Thanks for putting this up.

[@Aarons170]

They don't sing like this anymore!!!!!

[@titorichards4385]

sooosoooSOOO GLAD SOMEONE HAD ENOUGH SENSE TO GET THIS ON VIDEO!!...ONCE IN A HUMAN LIFE EXPERIENCE ! (RIGHT HERE)- WON'T BE SEEN AGAIN ON EARTH ONLY OVER "IN GLORY"!....I 'll be there

[@KMMJKR]

I know that's right! It's sad that everyone moves forward without reaching back sometimes! So glad that we have preserved it here on KZbin! Share it with someone please! Love ya for watching! Kingdom Blessings! Elder JKR

[@Qbyrde]

This is my FAVORITE song of all time -- because it's ALWAYS TRUE! You don't have to do anything elaborate or recite a bunch of words to be saved -- ONE LOOK at Him will bring you salvation! My God!!
