I saw this concert as a child on PBS. I’m 34 years old now still thinking about it. That just shows how profound of an impact this had on me. What Nathan Carter did with this music was incredible. These talented singers changed my life
Ernie was blessed and knew it. He sound just like my mother. I hear them both when I hear him, so does everyone in our family. He played and sang for churches and had a group that gave praise and glory. His first album "A New Beginning" with the girzs, who loved him and he them, featured voices you would not believed. He was blessed and so many wonderful ways that only GOD can give. GOD lent him to me for a little while and gave me a gift to share with the world. I give Thanks and Praise to GOD. I Thank Everyone for listening to Ern and for everyone who know, that voice can only come from GOD.
@carolynsaunders1022 I was a student at Morgan when I first heard Ernie. His voiced moved me then and still does to this day. His gift IS anointed and continues to move people who have ears to hear and hearts to receive!
I had thee opportunity to cross paths with Dr. Nathan Carter once as a student at Morgan State only once. There was something about him that just left a print in my heart. He was friendly, warm, focused, genuine and passionate. I was not the typically student being that I had served 4 years in the USMC. That experience had afforded me the opportunity to learn and understand the character traits of REAL MEN! Dr. Nathan Carter fit into that mold! Love you brotha!
If I can help somebody as I pass along, If I can cheer somebody with a word or a song, If I can show somebody he is travelling wrong, Then my living shall not be in vain! Then my living shall not be in vain, Then my living shall not be in vain! If I can help somebody as I pass along, Then my living shall not be in vain! If I can do my duty as a Christian oft, If I can bring back beauty to a world up wrought, If I can spread love's message that the Master taught, Then my living shall not be in vain! Then my living shall not be in vain, Then my living shall not be in vain! If I can help somebody as I pass along, Then my living shall not be in vain!
This soulful rendition makes me think of how it would sound to hear angels singing. It is profound and compelling. Blessed are the merciful..."By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." - John 13:35
Oh Dear!!! They’ve both been gone for awhile now, and yet still, this was a magnificent instance in time where teacher and student came together to Praise God! Sleep on, sleep on Ernie & Dr. Carter✝️💜.
Margaret Oliver Ernie Saunders _ I think.... he put one or two gospel records out west, in California I believe. Otherwise, very little is known about his life or why he died so young. Nonetheless, what a gift; what a time here on earth; what a legacy 🙏🏽❤️
Oml. I've never heard this man before. And I'm angry I haven't. Amazing voice. Beautiful talent. I'm quite jealous I am not that good. Love this piece!
I have to say, having lived for several decades, I have learned things that tell me that the owner of such a voice has lived through situations that have been very very hard for him and for people he loves. Yet here his wish is to help somebody, his declaration is that his life's work is to help somebody. Who sings this song is not a whiner but a brave, clear-seeing soul indeed!
