I remember this song. I was 6 years old my grandparents played the album so much I thought it was them. It’s 2023 and I’m still playing this & loving this song ❤

[@nadyarossi5102]

I was born in 1944 and love them til this day, also the Sensational Nightingales. All my favorite Gospel singers are going home & I sure do miss them. Our loss is Heaven's Gain.

The immortal Dixie Hummingbirds always! "Hit a Musical Homerun" in the Gospel Music Arena!; one of the best!.

[@lettawa9809]

WOW!! It seems like yesterday listening to the Hummingbirds and hearing my dad practicing with thier gospel group when I was a little girl. I hear my father singing all those parts clearly brings back special memories which has been passed on to my son who loves all the old quartet groups. Thanks Dixie Hummingbirds for making this special gospel music and thanks daddy for sharing with your 6 kids, grand & great children. At 91, poppie you still got it.
