On a 4 hour horrific small commercial plane ride in bad weather with heavy turbulance from Portland, ME to Newark, NJ I happened to have the lyrics to this Thomas Whitfield wonder which I softly sang again and again. Not a soul on board told me to pipe down. I strongly believe these Words brought us all safely back to Earth. I am forever greatful Mr. Whitfield.

Everything was flawless. The music,lyrics and the vocals ect. Thomas was truly gifted. Nothing against music today but Thomas,Edwin Hawkins and Douglass Miller gave us some of the best there is from the late 80’s through the 90’s hands down.

@TheDefjams Yeah... I am so glad that I got to meet him. I had the opportunity to play drums at church while he played and that was an honor and horrifying. LOL I am always amazed at how his music dating back to almost the 70's could actually be played on the radio today and be better in most cases. It is also nice to hear his influence on Kurt Karr, Kirk Franklin and so many others. Gospel music today would not be if not for him. and many people agree.

@tkrich1116 ...I believe that this sophistication, richness and depth has to be earned. I don't mean it can be purchased by works, but more so, there is a personal price to pay or sacrifice from within. This is rare if it exists at all anymore. And, maybe that is why we are not gifted with this quality of emotional/ spiritual music that makes such a powerful sense of connection. Thanks for posting the song.

WHAT DO YOU TELL YOURSELF EVERY MORNING AS YOU START THE DAY? ● Moses would say, "Lord, if You don't go with us or before us, we are not going anywhere." ● Abraham would say, "The Lord will provide." ● Jacob would say, "I won't let go of You unless You bless me." ● Joshua would say, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." ● Samuel would say, "Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening." ● Nehemiah would say, "The joy of the Lord is my strength." ● David would say, "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want." and "This is the day that the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it." ● Solomon would say, "Trust in the Lord, oh my soul, and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path." ● Isaiah would say, "Arise and shine for my Glory has come." and "No weapon formed against me shall prosper." ● Jeremiah would say, "The Lord has plans to prosper me and not to harm or fail me." ● Jabez would say, "Oh, that you may bless me and enlarge my territory." ● Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego would say, "We will not bow down to any image but will serve the Lord." ● Ezekiel would say, "Any dry bones in my life, live again." Choose your daily statement of faith. Meditate on it! Say it every morning... Could you please share this with someone else, and let them know that God loves them🕊..

@TheDefjams I think you are right... this particular one may have been studio... after looking at the cover i realized i am speaking of the wrong CD. HIs last CD was done at my church... if you look at the cover you will notice that there is a musicians pit in it. Or if you see a video from that night you will see it. That was my old church in Detroit. At the time Pastor T J Hemphill. The funeral was also held at my church and everyone was there. He will really be missed.
