They don't "work up" a crowd , they simply and humbly sing their song and every time I've been to hear them sing,,,, God shows up. I do know at least one person who was humming the music from the other side as they lay dying, they asked "do you hear that music!!! It's beautiful!!!"
This song was first sung by Annie Morgan in murphy, nc her father was a minister they were destitute living on the square in town john Jacob Nile’s was talking to her father and she started singing the song he gave her seven quarters to sing the song seven times while he wrote the words this is a beautiful story
Had special tickets to go see them with my best friend in Independence VA at the high school!!! What a blessing to hear this wonderful group 🎤 Bless them Lord🙏
If I had to choose a favorite song by this group, it would impossible. But three, especially, come to mind: My Home on Mt. Zion. When I Get Home and Standing By the River. Notably, they all have the same theme.
They are SUCH A BLESSING! I've been playing Standing By the River every day several times a day for the last month. Really gives me such GREAT hope. Praise You LORD.
You guys were at Mount Mitchell our church is about 45 minutes away from there. We would have loved for youns to have come and sung for us. We're in East tn. Love you music such a BLESSING
