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

[@KMMJKR]

[@ProfessorofPraise]

I'm still watching in 2020!

[@lindawyche6837]

[@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!

[@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!

[@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!

[@lizjackson8845]

It gets me EVERYTIME!!!

[@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!

[@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.

[@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!

[@tempiemiller6349]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@audreysmith4348]

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

[@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.

[@hazeljoynersmith]

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

[@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.😶

[@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!

[@brendaturner5015]

I love and miss this kind of gospel down home sanging❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ernestinemoses5281]

Anointed singing, felt Everytime I hear Mother Oliver.

[@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! 🙌🏾

[@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.

[@jppontat3909]

This is God's work. Thanks

[@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.

[@titusduru4040]

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

[@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.

[@jesserice9446]

They had a HEAVENLY BALL, that day, if only I coulda been, O What A Time

[@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.

[@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!

[@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!!

[@Exodus4259]

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

[@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!

[@raymond6621]

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

[@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!!!

[@Jameel159]

Still watching this in 2024

[@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

[@LindaSmith-ys4io]

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

[@norvillebraithwaite7718]

THUS SONG HAS ALWAYS! BEEN A BLESSING!! BISHOP BB!

[@georgetrotter1742]

Sing that song ladies that sounds great 👍 I love ❤️ that singing

[@loveyu2778]

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

[@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.

[@thekaerichtexas]

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

[@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

[@VincenzoPickatelli]

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

[@karenharris7170]

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

[@inezbrown2839]

Awesome singing groups 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@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!!!!!

[@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.

[@donaldmiller4643]

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

[@wigginsjrm]

[@manonamission333]

AMEN AND AMEN AGAIN..........IT DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS. I WISH THE SINGERS OF TODAY WOULD TAKE NOTE............THIS IS THE KIND OF SINGING THAT YOU NO LONGER HEAR. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS POST.........TRULY ANOINTED!

[@dontehaymon9691]

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

[@trinakxt]

I hadn’t heard this song since I was a lil girl! My grandma and her friend would sing this. Wow!!! Yesss Lord! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@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

[@86rouge]

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

[@MarsaiCM]

Miss you uncle Ruben

[@ethelstevenslove2957]

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

[@davidvalleysr.8223]

Brings back old memories of days long gone.

[@joyceB0201]

Oh bless the name of Jesus. This is just as moving to me know as it was way back then. Only a look! Hallelujah!!!

[@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!

[@alphashed]

I keep coming back to watch this video, the love that Rev. Cleveland had for God's music and the artists is so evident. There is a richness here that money cannot buy, I am so blessed by this video.. thank you minniejimmie

[@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!!!

[@BigNeke]

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!

[@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.......

[@YoungmanwithOldsoul]

one of the most soul touching songs every made.

[@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.

[@Rabshakeh9]

This is what they used to call "havin' choich". The beauty and simplicity is amazing and the depth penetrates to the bone. Unfortunately songs like this are a thing of the past. Thank God for KZbin!!!

[@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

[@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!

[@gilbertjones9388]

THIS IS FOREVER REAL AND SOUL STIRRING!! AMEN, AMEN, AMEN!!!

[@UhhhAreyouok]

Come on thru Albertina and Inez!!! I can't stop watching this video for the life of me!

[@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.

[@aleechaadams9917]

✝️🔥✝️I HAD TO PLAY THIS AGAIN 🔥✝️🔥 ✝️

[@Destinn3000]

THEE BEST version of this song! each choir section is phenomenal & James playing, timing & singing is essential to the entire masterpiece! actually word can't describe!

[@GospelAccording2ME]

This took me back to a better day...when I LOVED being in church on any given Sunday. I don't think this generation of sopranos would even know what to do with a song like this. And, that's not a bad thing. I just miss this type of musical worship.

[@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.

[@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

[@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.

[@boogiet]

Yes Yes Yes, my soul says Yes. Now this is gospel at its best. That soprano takes me back to my youth when those old soprano sisters used to wear it out.

[@TheOne-wo5gb]

Sermon in a song!!!!

[@San47di]

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

[@Beautifulcutie09]

Glory to God we need gospel like this today

[@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

[@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.

[@aalup]

Thanks Elder - this is truly amazing !! Thank you for you hard work in editing it to perfection, providing ministry via utube. God Bless all of your endeavors

[@1010503]

God made this genius who used his talent to REMIND us of how Gospel music(singing for the Lord) is supposed to sound....So simple...that's all it takes...only a Look!!! Thank you for sharing this with us...you are greatly appreciated for this.

[@dougiemac622]

I love this clip. It's just too awesome for words!! I'm just choked up!!! I always have to come back for more. God bless you minjimmierodgers!!!!!!

[@MsPatW]

mimister rodgers keep allowing god to use you. it is good to see all theses great and wonderful singers together even though some have gone on to be with the Lord.

[@pastor111]

I'm glad there are others out there who can appreciate this kind of Gospel music. This music was birthed in the crucible of adversity at a time when people knew the "God of their fathers" I have this video at home and watch it often. Bless you for the post By the way I believe the lyrics in that first verse are Only a look at Jesus O, soul bowed down with care...

[@queenmajesty5163]

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