How ironic! I just e-mailed this very video to our daughter work pastor today. He preached in the morning service "Lift up your heads, oh ye gates." Three young men in their early twenties were baptized. Their wives have been coming for a while. Thank God! We had Bro. Stan Cook (McGruders)tonight. He preached about 'Global Warning-Jesus is coming.' The altars were full. Call me old fashioned, but I loved it when he ended the service with "He's coming soon, he's coming soon, with joy we'll welcome his returning, it may be morn, it may be night or noon..."

One of my first CD's was a double disc set of Mahalia from my father.

My pastor, Dan Scott, sang this song acapella during his sermon. It brought back memories of the Gateway Choir singing this song when I was a teenager!
