Yet, through hymns they not only prayed and praised God, but to send secret messages to each other they learned to communicate through song and instruments.

Growing up southern Baptist it still amazes me how absolutely strong this music and more specifically this song brings the spirit to the person hearing it! And if you're in the room with it personally, there is NO chance of NOT feeling it thru your entire body and soul! Amen! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Amen. I'm someone that grew up in the Southern Baptist church too. Over the years my faith and walk with God has been challenged, but every time I hear this song my body never ceases to be filled with the Holy Spirit. It's an out of the this world supernatural feeling. There's no other music in the world that brings tears to my eyes and sends goosebumps throughout my soul like Gospel music.

Everything about her attire and the way she’s singing the song is the way CHICAGO Baptist do it.
