Mahalia Jackson - I'm On My Way **I LOVE THE RHYTHM AND THE SOULFULNESS OF THIS SONG, I COULD SEE HER SINGING THIS DIRECTLY TO ME, I'M ON MY WAY!!!!!!!!!!********
Mahalia Jackson is on her way to move on up a little higher to the upper room for she seen to much trouble in this world and and at times she don't know how she made it over but she did and now the precious lord already been took her hand and leaded her home and I waiting for him to do the same for me one Day amen to that
This is one of those songs that can reach the hardest of sinners. Mahalia's voice has that effect. What an angel of God. The pianist is phenomenal. Both combined equal a magnificent masterpiece!
Negro spirituals are the original folk music of a people disrupted but purging onward and upward washing their souls in this glorious expression....mahalia was blessed and she gave it up straight back to the most high from whence it came!
Mahalia Jackson sang with a chilling fire in her voice, in that she left her grateful listeners with chills through their bodies and a gloriously roaring fire in their souls for the love of God's music! I have no doubt that she continues to raise her most cherished voice in the heavens today and will do so for eternity! Oh to imagine what a time she is having there!
😊You’re in excellent company as Jesus wasn’t religious either! As a matter of fact the religious people of Jesus day hated him so much they thought they killed Him by hanging Him on a cross. But the joke was on them, instead He died for all of our sins including theirs and yours! Yes, He died in “our place” for ALL our sins. Would you receive His love, mercy and forgiveness by accepting Him as your Lord and Savior today? That way you can know your name is written in the Lambs book of life and know where you’ll spend eternity.
It touches so deep... This is the voice of a woman who suffered strong, but recovered, because she believed in God beyond all measure, with all her grateful amazing heart. Really inspiring.
++Kristy Napier I'm not sure what you mean by "anointing",presumably superb. it certainly is. There was no-one could match her, and her performances of these bluesy gospel songs in particular are absolutely unrivalled.
@@gynack 'Anointing' means filled with the Holy Ghost...bottom line. It means people aren't hearing a show or performance from you, but rather an unmistakable command to repent and follow Jesus. At least, that's how I understand it.
@@MelancoliaI Thanks. It's a powerful song powerfully delivered. I can understand why some Christians might feel that. There is a version in the film Elmer Gantry with great Gospel choral singing.
Praise the Lord!!! Mahalia's singing sends chills down my spine, and I strongly believe she was FOR REAL as she glorified Jesus to the max as she sang! Hallelujah!!!❤
Wow! I've never heard a Gospel song sung so powerfully and right to the heart! And the rhythm and piano match perfectly! I can't find THIS in any Churches anymore.
SHE WAS TRULY A MINISTER OF MUSIC BEFORE WE USED THE TERMINOLOGY IN THE CHURCH WORLD. WHEN YOU CAN REACH THE SOULS OF SAINTS AND SINNERS THEN YOU TRULY HAVE A MESSAGE IN YOUR SONG AND NOT JUST ENTERTAINING THOSE THAT HEAR YOUR VOICE. GOSPEL SONGS ARE SUPPOSE TO SEARCH THE SOUL OF THE PEOPLE.
@@bigrobtheactor WHY NOT? The observation made in the comment shows phenomenal insight. I personally know how phenomenal, being the offspring of a mean, stupid atheist and a true saint. Nevertheless, ONLY MAHALIA JACKSON COULD BRING THAT CRUEL PARENT BACK TO WHO THEY WERE BEFORE THIS DIRTY WORLD TARNISHED THEM UP and so....Both my parents revelled in Godliness when she sang. This scenario was played out all over the world. Hence the old saying: Music soothes the savage beast. JUST NOT ANY MUSIC BUT THE MUSIC CREATOR PASSED TO US THROUGH MAHALIA!
my grandmother loved Mahalia Jackson. She sings soprano and alto. and sounds just like her.. its so hard because my grandmother DIED 09052015 7:47 PM..... ive listened to these songs over and over. they make me cry then lift my spirit... R.I.P Zelma Fields... -ive always loved you more than life.....
Sou do Brasil...e so admirador desta grande cantora gospel ele e sensacional suas interpretaçoes sao inimaginaveis e vibrantes e brilhantes....e nao tem tempo ele eterna...o Senhor a dotou com este talento.....
today is September 11,thank 2016, not since, not now , not ever will there ever be another MAHAILA JACKSON!!! EVER DO YOU HEAR ME PEOPLE? EVER!!! LAWWWD HAVE MERCY!
My Grandmother, a New Orleans woman, as was Mrs.Jackson, played her music while I grew up and still these many years later, I still love listening to her.
My mother also loved Ms Jackson and also told me stories of denied lodging and housing. A returning veteran of WWII and his family had problems finding housing, hard to believe in our own country. You traveled at your own risk back then when traveling while Black, especially in the South. I remember their stories, mostly of joy and family and a few bad ones. Thank you Ms Jackson for singing about strength, perseverance and love, especially love. We do not need to like anyone but according to God, we must love him and his creations both good and bad.
Who needs rock 'n' roll when you've got Mahalia Jackson? ALL blues, rock and soul has its roots in the African-American church. If Mahalia had "crossed over" into secular soul she could have had overwhelming success, but she chose to stay with gospel because, as she said in the liner notes to one album, "I know the blues, but there's despair in the blues. I want the peace and happiness that God's music brings." Mahalia and the other great gospel singers of her generation (Rosetta Tharpe, Clara Ward, Maron Williams, James Cleveland and the forgotten but brilliant Cassietta George) were miraculous! And kudos to Mildred Falls, Mahalia's piano player here and for most of her career.

Thanks for posting this and taking me back to childhood. When you heard this, you drop everything and the whole family got in front of TV to see something wonderful and important, unlike today's TV crap. Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh happy days...
You feel the soul and she make's you feel like you have just been through the valley to the top of the mountain !!! Touches my soul !Like this woman's God given talent and her story through her soul !!! Love it !!! Praise God !!!
Thank you. Unfortunately when they switched to Google I got locked out of this account but it works my heart to see so many blessed by her. Truly an amazing EXTRAORDINARY soul❤️🙌🏾
Yes I'm Muslim,however I find it hard to stop the tears from escaping my eyes...RIP To my beloved grand mother Jim Ella Gilbert,and Mother Mary Eleanor Josephine Gilbert,you will not be forgotten, I swear it,I will make them pay...
Just the thought of the biblical description of what God led the Children of Israel into as they came into Canaan makes me wanna shout! But first the people had to see themselves the way God saw them and not as grasshoppers as they saw themselves! Canaan land represents the land where we receive our inheritance... THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM
My grandma had.. The most powerful voice I ever knew to this day. All she did was clean, lounge around singing gospel songs. Mahalia would be one of those you would hear her sing.. It brings me to tears relistening to these songs but I'm.. I'm ok. It just reminds me of her. RIP Ms. Jemma Jackson.
used to listen to MJ when i was a teenager in late 70's..........my parents werent into music but i loved it. i got lost along the years since...........but now I'm back.
I’ve been in love with 😍 with this angel beautiful voice beautiful!!!! We appreciate you sister sharing your gods gifted talents. I believe in the resurrection if my name is written in the Lambs book of life I’ll see you in the kingdom Mahalia Jackson. Gods blessings to your family.
My Grandmother LOVED her some MAHALIA!!! These songs spark nostalgia of my grandma sitting on the front porch in her rocking chair, working a puzzle book, and listening to those old Malaco 8 tracks.....RIH ERIA SHUMAN!
