[@johncharles4]

These songs are heartfelt. Please accept Jesus as your Savior if you haven't already. God loves us all always. Even if we haven't always loved Him.

My son just crossed over at the age of 22 yrs old due to a dirt bike accident,Mrs Jackson’s voice omg sends chills in my spine smh her voice helps me lord smh god bless everyone and yes lord he is real this is still so fresh to me and prayers to and for everyone

[@taz-on-the-looseyusef5526]

everytime I listen to Mahalia Jackson, my little faith suddenly gets a boost, she sang for God not to make quick cash ,

[@rachelmm05]

One of my favorite songs helped me through a lot of difficult times!! No auto-tune, overdubs, just pure singing, love it!

[@leoncoda]

Letra aproximada , cantada aquí por Mahalia Jackson: Refrain: Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is you plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. Refrain: Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is you plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 1.I am weak, but Thou art strong; Jesus, keep me from all wrong; I’ll be satisfied as long As I walk, let me walk close to Thee. Refrain: Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is you plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 2.When my feeble life is o’er, Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely o’er To Thy kingdom shore, to Thy shore. Refrain Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is you plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. FIN ¡BEST REGARDS !!

[@stacyblue1980]

Me too. Use to sing this at work. I had rough jobs and i would sing the time away. To just feel better about being in hard places. Im proud to work and earn and yes i still believe. Even after hardships. And so much pain.

[@Cllrjuliadavidson]

With all my being I wished I had met the late great gospel singer ever was I can hear my parents telling us to listen to Mahalia Jackson sing 🕊Sing on in Glory 🙏🏽

[@Cllrjuliadavidson]

@gregnormal5101 Good morning Greg, Yes a fan 😊

[@centerfocused3490]

i am an elder. My dear mom transitioned 2 years ago. I suddenly remembered that when I was a child this is the song she would sing all the time. I never knew until just now that this was a Mahalia Jackson son. My mother would have been 91 years old this year. I am a vocalist. I am going to add this song to my gospel repertoire.

[@Rowoches]

@bobobekker: I don't think it is written anywhere that you HAVE TO BE Black to enjoy Gospel music. As long as you're able to receive the message in the songs. Mahalia sang for all types of audiences: Black, White, Asian, Europeans, etc. I'm so glad that you've enjoyed! Take care and feel free to stop by anytime.

[@caranashford8248]

One of my mothers favorite "song". As a child I can hear here playing the "record" on " Sunday" morning or she singing it herself. Thank-you for a " praying" mother. AMEN and AMEN.

[@pinktool78]

I absolutely love Gospel music. It goes right to the soul. Without sounding cliche, this is music that bonds us. God bless.

[@mpaxton8991]

I have loved Miss Mahalia since I first heard her when I was a little girl. I listen to this play list very often. Thanks so much. God Bless.

[@karenrandell9911]

Love it and her music

[@akakaspar3472]

Here it is 2021 and I say AMEN. She was a gift from God!

[@missfancy8365]

I remember when my childhood pastor would perform this song from time to time. Now to hear it brings back so much memories. One thing still remains is that it is for the glory of God ! Just a closer walk. ❤

[@marioparty12345]

Sing Queen ! That was truly a Woman Of God . Didn’t let nothing change her when they offered her money to sing jazz she turned it down cause it wasn’t of God . A true example !

[@glenheflin2140]

i love her voice

[@Rowoches]

One of the greatest!!

[@Chakirisan]

If her voices doesn't move you you're dead inside, just a magnificent voice.

[@virginiaclark2476]

Amen- BEAUTIFUL HALLELUJAH ❤

[@SuperGoldenglove]

We all can recognize when a person is singing, if it’s to the glory of God are whether it’s one of those look how good I am moment. She’s definitely singing to the glory of God.

[@NellieKAdaba]

👍🏿 yes

[@djackson8206]

[@Joe-bx3gi]

Shanise, I know you will feel better if you sing this along with the great Mahalia. In your heart you know JESUS is walking with you and listening to your worries. I'm sure He will love to hear your voice ! I still listen to the recording you sent me of" Speak to Me" by K. Hawthorne back in Aug. 2023. It picks me up when I'm down. I think it's great ..wish I had it on a CD!

[@blueschick9545]

2020 lost my mom and sister this song played holding my moms hand before she journeyed I will keep playing to be closer to thee

Mahalia was the real deal: "The Queen of Gospel' - who speaks to many. I've sent links to many friends who had never heard of her..and they got her straight away. Bless you Mahalia; your powerful voice & the message of hope - even if you are not 'A believer' is as tangible today as it was when you were here on Planet Earth! x

[@DrDe-eu1ii]

Absolutely just beautiful This version by Ms. Jackson is my favorite version. It totally touches my heart and I understand actually what is is saying; I am doing what I am suppose to be doing/the good things, the righteous things, the reason why God put me on earth. Every time I continue to do good, I am walking closer to our Lord. What a deep, deep, deep song. I am so moved.

[@lovecruisingjohnson2340]

Daily walking close to My Jesus. Yes LORD yes.

Looking forward to Eternity listening to Mahalia.

She just schools us all like we're cross-legged in kindergarten. In the presence of That Voice, we truly are. Flip all the cards over and start fresh. This is IT, children. Make no mistake.
