Rev. Charles Nicks - He's So Real 

thank God for You Tube, I can listen to songs like this when I am working. It helps keep me grounded and remember the good old days. If you didn't get to church early you had to stand up. And we did it heels and all.

Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to get to know Rev. Nicks until the last two years of his life. This man was the most spiritual man of GOD I've ever been in the presence of. He was truly a great minister, a great musician, and an even greater spirit. Bravo to you for recognizing a true and wonderful talent and posting it for the world to see and enjoy as much as we in Detroit did.

The good Ole days

Real in my soul today!

I can watch this over and over!!

This is how I remember it being song when I was a kid, at the church my Grandaddy pastored, I'm 73 years old now!!! That's whyI did'nt say Grandfather!!!

My Testimony Forever I Will Always Give God The Praise For The Victory In Jesus Christ Name I Love You Jesus Christ For Covering My Family Members In Jesus Christ Name Amen Glory To God Glory To God Glory To

Absolutely love the roaring organ on this one.

This song brings back memories of church when I was a child. This was a song that everybody loved.
