It brings back memories to hear this beautiful song. The chorus was the lullaby I sang when my son cried or just happy. Then he amazed me one day when we were traveling home he started to sing it with me:) Oh, how I cried for joy. He was one then now he is 24 and he is an amazing young man. Praise God in Jesus Name.
Chorus For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, should not perish, but shall have, they shall have everlasting life. Verse 1 God could have chosen to never love again, fallen man could go his way and die in his sin; but God in His compassion said, I'll pay redemption's price, so He took on the form of man and became the perfect sacrifice. Verse 2 If riches could have paid the debt then God could have sold, all the walls of jasper, and the streets of purest gold. But He knew the price of one lost soul was more than wealth could buy; and if redemption were ever bought, only love would satisfy
In my youth choir days the lead singer of this song sang so beautifully. I can still hear every note she sang eloquently! Thank you Jesus that was in the 80’s it’s 2024 and the lyrics still minister to my soul
One of my favorite Lanny Wolfe songs. I was going to college when he wrote this and it's still awesome. And, who could do it justice but Vanessa Bell Armstrong wow
I really hate songs like this are called old:, because the Lyric will never grow old ,this is what God did through his Son, The father,The Son and Holy spirit lives.that is New, and its Good News..
And the music and the voice and the song will never grow old either, for they speak a truth that never grows old - "God so loved the world ..." Praise His Holy Name Forever!! ❤❤😊😊 DJ
@TOSPUBS Truth of the matter is; your brother went to the grave..."no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven...(John 3:13)...may sound harsh to you, but truth is; your brother and all others who have died are not in heaven...Blessings
St. John 3:16-This verse can change the world. BE A WITNESS today and let others know that because Jesus lives they can live also and then have EVERLASTING LIFE. Lord, she have a beautiful anointing voice. A gift from God. May God continue to bless and keep you.
I remember listening to this on the way to Church back in 1993. I was 19 and my cousin and I had gotten baptized. I went years without hearing this song because I didn't know the name of it. Glad to have found it again. I'll be sure to always remember the title of this gem. Sing, VBA!!!
This is a great soloists version of what I believe is the original one (GMWA Gospel Music Workshof of America) that featured Rev. James Cleaveland in 1982. I'm 42 now, was 4 then! Had just learned to play drums and piano, crazy man!^^
Oh my, my, my! God so loved me that if I were the only one on earth He would have given His only Son so I would have everlasting life. I am eternally grateful!
I thank God for his son Jesus Christ John 3:16 for salvation. I ❤ how you sing this song i weep because u touch my ❤ and soul with your wonderful voice. Thank you.
soft, but strong voice, i love this song. at my church there was this very young lady who sang this song with such authority, I thought she made this song, it brought tears to my eyes every time she sang it. The child could then and still can blow. such a powerful message
"Praise Almighty God" , this is a very powerful song that should be sang through out all the churches today . it glorifies the son of God and speaks about having everlasting life , whosoever that believes in him, which gives us the joy and hope of his return. and does not speak about ones self as many gospel artists do i i i me myself and i glorifying the flesh. this song does not do that Praise God.
She was definitely ahead of her time. I just believe that every so many decades we get another so list who takes us to that kind of place musically and in ministry. In this present time I believe that person is Kim Burrell.
Love this song. While in prayer this morning I saw a vusion of the set of number 316 and immediately I heard "John 3:16" after hearing that this song came to my heart. Have not heard it in over 26 years. I had to search for the artist and knew right away it was Vanessa Bell Armstrong. Just the lyrics alone will bless you. It's what Jesus did for the world.
OMGOSHHHH...... I WAS 16.5 YRS OLD, 1ST WEEK IN CHRIST JESUS..HEARD THIS, MY 1ST EVER GOSPEL SONG....DROPPED TO MY KNEES AND LET THE SPIRIT OF GOD DO THE REST. PRAISE BE TO THE LORD YESHUA FOR HAVING MERCY ON ME (A COMPLETE SINNER DEAD AND DOOMED) WHAT A MERCIFUL SAVIOUR. SALVATION BY CHRIST GRACE, THROUGH CHRIST FAITH..AND THANK GOD NOT BY ANYTHING I HAVE DONE OR WILL EVER DO
i'm crying now. where is the annointed music such as this in today's catalogue? THIS is the type of music we need to hear! it will help so many out of bad situations.
I used to lead this song for old church choir. It still is amazing. Sometimes those old songs is what moves. And the anointing... They song from their soul!
💒 Oh what a Love...Still sing this melodious sacred song especially for Holy communion. For God So Loved The World That he gave his son ♔ to save us. John 3:16. The ultimate sacrificial gift🎁. #EternalLife A Singer's life...
I REMEMBER THIS SONG BEING PLAYED ON TAPE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER... AND NOW I'M OLDER IT BRINGS ME TO TEARS BECAUSE THE LYRICS ARE SO TRUE AND THE MELODY IS SO SWEET WHICH EQUALS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC
Beautiful... Jesus Christ died for the whole of mankind. God came in the form of a man, and placed His uncorrptible nature to heal man's corruptible nature. The truth of the gospel is infallible: Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
I have the original recording of this song that she did on Lanny Wolfe's Thou Shall Call Him Jesus Christmas album, and this truly is not the same version. This one is way more slower than the original version. Sounds good tho, she has more vocal acrobats on this one.
I SHOULDVE KNOWN SMH THIS WAS THE LEGENDARY QUEEN VANESSA BELL ARMSTRONG!!! I HEARD THIS SONG FOR THE FIRST TIME MINISTERED AT SHARON BAPTIST CHURCH OF PHILADELPHIA BY THEIR PRAISE AND WORSHIP TEAM LED BY QUEEN TRINA FURBY!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌💕🎶💕🎶💕🎶💕
