This is real gospel. I am now 36 years old and find myself looking for the old gospel tunes I was raised on. Most of today's artists are lacking something. The songs don't move me. Hezzie and JPK and Melvin Dawson, Resurrection Mass, La Mass, Milton Brunson, and others still bring the blessing down.
I've had a job since August of last year, so I've been working for a full year now, The Lord is truly a provider! My husband has also gotten a job with a pay increase. We were staying with my parents during the time I lost my job but now my husband and I have our own place, God is faithful and he's still working on our behalf
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer and given 1 to 2 years to live...that was Nov. 2016!!! Guess what? I am cancer free! By Jesus grace and mercy I made it!!! Hallelujah!!!
I just found something quite interesting about this song. This is actually a remake of a 1975 song by D.J. Rogers by the same title. Just type "D.J. Rogers 'It's Allright Now" in the search field and it will come up. When I found that, I was shocked, because I remember when Hezekiah first dropped this song back in the day. I thought this was one of his originals. BTW...D.J. Rogers is actually singing at the end of "God Favored Me".
I remember when I first heard this blessed song. I was going though my training in the U.S. Army. Just finished basic now it was time to be taught in my field of study. They had to teach us one year of teaching in eight months. Everything was rushed. There were times that all I could do was encourage myself in the Lord. This was my song. I began to let those words speak life to me...my situation. Even today...30 years later this song still ministers to me. I praise Jesus! For without Him I am nothing, but because of Him nothing is impossible. I thank God for using this man of God in the way HE did. Amen.
My All Time Favorite Hezekiah Walker Song this cane out when I was 7 years old the album cover photo was shot on The Art Museum Steps in Philadelphia PA I’m a huge Hez Fan!!!!
@@amarvinwinansfan lol how do you forget the original? I was like 8 when this first came out and it was all over the radio. No way you couldn't have known who Hezzy was. But I guess every body didn't know who he was.
Thank God for my son. He's 13 and an aspiring musician who enjoys the gospel choirs and songs from the 80s and 90s. He got on youtube and found this version of the song. Love it! We can and will make it if we follow God's leading, pray, fast, and live saved for real. Stay full of the Holy Ghost!
I still have this cassette lol. I miss these times, back when songs had multiple elements of a structure - verse, chorus, interludes, bridge, break downs, vamps, etc.
Haha! I remember when this song was number one on the charts foreeeeeeevvveeeerr.. I remember going to the PAW convention in 88' (I think it was).. I was about 8 or 9(?) and they were in concert w/ Rev. Milton Brunson Singers... Mom and Dad went and my sister went. Me and my brother weren't allowed to go. I WAS SO MAD!! lol! Memories. I'll never forget that. The remake w/ Kim is nice, but nothing can beat the original. They played this on the radio ALL the time. Hez was new and had a fresh sound. Everybody wanted to see him and his choir in concert back then. And for those that are wondering, yes that's Kirvy (5:05-5:57) at the end of the song.
neetrab thank you so much his voice has me shouting over here. such an amazing spirited voice i grew up listening to this and my family sings gospel but never knew his name❤
I was in New Jersey In the Army( Ft. Monmouth ) sang at a gospel concert with them when this album was put out. This is one of the songs that blow me away when i heard it. I still love it. I just replace the name jesus with Yeshua.
Hallelujah!!🙌🏾🙌🏾 I LOVE this encouraging, anointed song!! Hearing it today takes me back to the early 90's when I was attending a little storefront Apostolic church!! We had the best times there praising God, singing in the choir & lifting up the name of Jesus!!🙌🏾🙌🏾💃🎶🎶
This is my theme song!!!!! I had to let my counsin listen to this. My family is giving her all kind of hell about moving out of this depressing city, I told her to listen to song and now she is feeling much better.
Happy you found it, but boy was it ever fun being a part of gospel music history as it was being made! Wish I had a magic wand to teleport yoy back to those days! You wouldn't be disappointed.
Been searching EVERYWHERE for this version.. I was 8 years old in '87 and I remember that BREAK DOWN beat for beat and line for line!! Thank u SO much for posting this!!! Heaven 600 in Bmore MD used to play this ALL the time!! :)
that sounds like my boy Gerald Hayward on the drums. He pioneered doing rolls on the foot pedal. No one was doing it like that before Gerald. Dude was wicked for real. Now he's big time. Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for a version with Gerald playing for a long time.
This is my very favorite HW&LFCC song...I remember going to summer convocation and seeing Hez sing this song...it helped me through a very trying time in my life.
That is an understatement. I knewwe were getting ready to sing the on every 4th Sunday of the month (Youth Day). Yo, i heard the organ tuning up before he started playing, lol
Best of Hez. They came to Faith Temple COGIC Amityville Strong Island I think 1990-91.... don’t remember.... been a minute.... anyway... Eddie White In bass playing 5 string Tobias through an SWR 400? .... 4-10 cab ..... they were bad to the bone.... They also played Oh Lord We Praise You.... The highliyfor me was meeting the Reverend Timothy Wright .... He Greeted me with a handshake and everyone that knows him his smile. He signed an album for my 5year old daughter ....Who’s On The Lords Side... what a day.
This song has the baddest break down of any song in the history of music. I'm 34 and have been looking for this song since the last time I heard it at 10 years old. I remember living in Virginia and riding in the family van on the way to a COGIC revival where my dad would be preaching, and just zoninng out as this song was playing. I got to send this to my sister.
I saw him perform this song live in new york around 1991 at his anniversary concert milton brunson was his special guest....they rocked!!! We had a good time
Dijean Mckee yes on my way to work, nobody understands your praise when ya singing but you and God. But you take it on in to work, hate to turn it off. 💃🙌
Im just 18 and i even love old gospel music over the new stuff. especially being a gospell drumer I love older gospel drummers over the new ones. I feel blessed to have an uncle that played drums during this era because hearing him play is like getting to watch the past.
1991 my mother introduced this Wonderful song to my sister and I. Thank GOD for my mother and what she instilled in me. GOD IS FOREAL! ...this song brings tears to my eyes, joy to my heart, & Faith within my SOUL🙏🏿...

I loved this song every since I was a little girl, we sang this song all time in my church choir. Its truly an inspiration to my heart mind and soul........Amen!!!!
Love the percussion too. This is when churches natural grew their own musicians. Musicians that played at they CHURCH HOME and the kids watched that begat new musicians within the congration and a stronger foundation for understading the word and our gifts. BLESSED LOVE, Ms. LACY
