Ain't nothing like 90s Gospel

[@PrazHymn83]

Although this song is being sung by Richard Smallwood & Vision, it was written by Raymond Reeder, who is a member of Vision and also used to sing and play piano for Yolanda Adams.

This may be my fav song on this Album... You know when a singer is anointed, you are a missionary for God Charrisse oh yes you are... 3 people disliked this, let us pray for them...

Whenever I hear this song, I feel the presence of God immediately. This song and the leaders singing the song are anointed! (LIKE FOR REAL)! This is my favorite song off the CD too!

[@L_Jyll_Dixon]

You don't know how much this blessed my soul. I loved this CD and I love the two lead vocalist voices. The woman with the braids who also sings the lead to "Thank You" has such a wonderful instrument and imo truly sings to save.
