listened to this album in the fall of 95', my freshmen year at Mississippi Valley State University, on a music scholarship, emphasis Voice... Lets just say they heavily influenced my open mindedness and my ears back then. Remember sneaking into the music building to play on the baby grand piano around midnight a lot of times, creating my own music.. I hope we all recognize what a treasure these guys are.
Yes I used to listen to this just for the beauty of it. But one time when I was fasting for a month I was on my way to phoenix and this song was playing and the Spirit hit me so hard i was just in tears and didnt know why and I kept playing this song over and over and for an hour i was in total tears of joy thinking about His grace. I thought I was going to have an accident i was in such tears lol but I kept driving. This was the first time after being a christian for a long time that I was overwhelmed with the Spirit like that and I didnt even know why or what was happening.My life has changed forever since then I know that God is with me and that He is very real and I can reach out to Him at anytime and He really does let me know He is there.
When I was stationed in Korea, this cd came out and this song was a big help...It might have been some years since I've heard it, but somehow, I felt I needed to hear it.
One of my favorite versions. Reminds me of when the disciples couldn't stay awake. Sleep on now, the Lord is watching over. When it is time to wake, Praise His Name🌸
When I hear this incredible song I imagine every precious note washing away all the horrible music that defiles popular entertainment media. I feel like there is hope and then some.
I was a senior in High School when this album came out. This song is my favorite. It makes my soul shine inside. I got to perform on the same stage as these awesome vocalists/musicians at the 1989 National Association of Jazz Educators Convention in San Diego as a freshman in College with Soundsation from Edmonds Community College. What a blessing, what an honor. God bless
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Psalm 121: 1,2,3.
He never sleeps He never slumbers He watches me both night and day (Day and night, night and day) He never sleeps He never slumbers The reason I know, He told me so I don´t to worry, my soul´s in His care I don´t have to worry, He´ll always be there I know that He´s watching wherever I go I know that He´s watching, He told me so He never sleeps He never slumbers He watches me both night and day (Day and night, night and day) He never sleeps He never slumbers The reason I know, He told me so
I am a straight-up atheist and have been for as long as I can remember, AND I've loved this album and this group, also for as long as I can remember. Because I worship the black dots on the page, the sounds that come from the lungs of these 6 fine gentlemen, the feeling in my head and stomach when music like this hits my ears. THAT'S what I worship.
I love this song and their sound! How many difficult times I have gotten through with the help of this music...! God’s Blessings be upon them for the good they have done!
God Almighty!! Thank you for NEVER SLEEPING! I played this song, late the other night. Had not heard it in many years. The Lord put on my heart to look it up. The anointing was still on this song. I cried like a baby. It renewed my faith, that God, Jesus and The Holy Ghost is Always with me and that He NEVER SLEEPS NOR SLUMBERS! !🙏🏾✝️💞💯
whatever your faith, if you truly believe in a Higher power, this puts your soul at such ease. So beautifully done and crafted with such pure harmony, it literally makes me weep when I sing this , the words are so poetic , yet powerful that no matter what day or night we want His ever love and protection every day, every hour. Tears....
Always been my favorite group the break down of each part in this song they made it seem so easy. That’s why I love them. The harmony. Shoutout to the girl on my sisters swim team that introduced her to Take 6.❤️❤️❤️ a fan for life
I love choir singing despite not being religious at all. Take 6 is genius. Singers Unlimited, Moon Safari (swedish band, not the french one) are all great 5+ layered vocal arrangements too.
@@ronaldlawrence2229 That's only if you equate what he feels to a god. I enjoy Take 6 also for their musicianship while being an Atheist. The sound is beautiful but does not prove a god.
Talk about having your ears being blessed! Still,this is such a wonderful song about my God (cuz all the persons of the Godhead are keeping watch over us):)
Allah says in the Quran "slumber nor sleep touches Him"in this verse chapter 2 verse 255 Allah there is no God but he the living the self subsisting Eternal no Slumber can seize him no sleep. His are all things in the heavens and earth .who is there can intercede in his presence except as he permits he knows what appears to his creatures as before or after or behind them .Nor shall they Compass any of his knowledge except as he Wills. His throne does extend over the heavens and the Earth and he feels no fatigue and guarding and preserving them for he is the most high the Supreme in glory
