This is truly beautiful. It's unknown to us outsiders why their marriage didn't last, but one thing is FACT: they loved each other unconditionally. Even when they divorced they continued to tour, collaborate and perform together. And it is oh so rare that you find a divorced couple having nothing but loving and kind words to say about each other. I believe they were always meant to be together divorced or not.
Sometimes we are just too young to be married and handle the ups and downs. My first marriage didn't work but we have two wonderful children and my second husband and I have been together for over 45 years and married for nearly 37. We have parented five children successfully and my husband, my ex, his wife and all of the children talk with each other.
No matter what happened to the marriage i am enlightened today. They've known each other since they were 7 years old. Tremaine knew ALL about Walter and, inspite... The End!
i don't know what happened with their marriage but God bless them both for keeping a relationship with the lord and also collaborating in their music in jesus name. RIP Bishop Walter you are missed but not forgotten. thank you lord for all you've done for me! Amen
I worked in the gospel industry for a minute some years ago and I was usually able to go up to these singers and introduce myself. However---when I saw Walter, Tramaine and Edwin all walking in the hotel together, I was too stunned to even move. I stared at them so hard and widemouthed that they all smiled and said hello. I can't even remember if I spoke back. Legends that I'd been singing to since I was a CHILD and they are all right in front of me??! omg. Watching this made my heart sad. I missed out on him and Edwin. :(
Bishop Walter Hawkins and Edwin Hawkins will NEVER be forgotten for their GREAT contribution to the gospel music industry. Such prolific and profound musical gifting. They gave me and my sisters so much. I'll forever love The Hawkins Family, Singers and Love Center Choir.
I felt the same way. I started listening to this family way back in the 70s.I still love listening to them. God bless you and your entire family forever and ever. And the Hawkins also.
This brings tears!!!!! I miss Walter!!!! I grew up on the beginning of their journey. I love the entire Love Alive Family. Irregardless of what happened in his marriage, you can still be civil with each other and PRAISE GOD ANYHOW!!!!
I will forever love this man and his music. From childhood to now, I remain an unrelenting fan. His gift has just inspired me so much. Sorry if this sounds typical but it is from way down deep in my heart. To the whole family, I love your gift and how you stepped out in faith and left this legacy. Bless you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It amazes me how his brother Edwin said when Bishop Hawkins was younger he couldn't sing on key. Well, he definitely out grew that lol.. Wish I could've met Bishop Hawkins.
I will always love this family. I am thankful for their inspiring music. I truly miss these awesome men of such heartfelt worship, music. It's so emotional to my soul, and spirit. I sometimes wish that I could have lived close enough to their church so that I could attend often. .
This was tremendously a great blessing to view this today. Missing my pastor. Tramaine is an awesome gift to the body of Christ. I am humbled and honored to have been a part of the Love Center Ministries during a great era.
I thank God for such a beautiful song Pastor Hawkins wrote I believe Heaven has rejoiced because of the music he left for us God Bless the Hawkins family I truly miss him
Regardless of any struggles Walter may have had, no one can deny his love for Tramaine. Even in the early years when he would introduce his family while on tour, he always introduced her as his "beautiful wife, Tramaine".
Such a blessed family with awesome gifts of songs. Rip Walter and Edwin. Your songs are still encouraging those left behind. Thank you Tramaine, love you and the Hawkins’ family.
This man was so gifted, not only could he sing,write,direct and he was a great preacher. This clip or video is hard for me to watch. He showed so much RAW emotion. The first time he went down he put his hands on her arm. He loved her still. I tear up each time I watch it. He is greatly missed. His music that God gave to him has up lifted a many hearts and remined us of God's love.
That truly anointed man used every muscle in his body to SING that song. It looks like Lady Tramaine asked him to go back up and finish the song. which he did. Then he dropped the mic and went and directed the choir. He was ridiculously talented. I will always love Bishop Walter Hawkins. Kudos to the musicians; they are phenomenal. The only thing missing was more of the song. Thank you so much for posting.
Although Bishop Walter Hawkins is gone he's still inspiring me every day.. l just love the emotion he puts in all his songs. A true man of God, this song fits the time we're living today Thank You Lord for giving us the Bishop of song, a true inspiration. RIP
Walter and Tremaine are the catalyst that started my walk with Jesus Christ..hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah..Bishop you are forever missed and in my heart..you're music is timeless and brought nations to Christ..your anointed music made Jesus Christ real to me...change changed my life.....glory to GOD
At a midnight musical in Berkeley, I was lost, going to hell. I sat there in my brokenness and heard a wonderful message of what was possible because of God's love. Changed, changed, I'm so glad He changed me. That refrain remained in my memory, long after leaving there. Still broken, but with a seed of hope. That seed grew and I became a child of God. I thank God for the ministry of these wonderful people, who impacted my life and the lives of countless others. Glory be to God for all He has done!
im just missing you today brother walter hawkins ........your music is the landscape of my life since i was a little boy 8 years old first time i heard you.....ENJOY HEAVEN BRO.WALTER HAWKINS!!!!!!
The Hawkins family's music will forever be a part of my life. They were one of the first family of musicians that I started listening to in the seventies. God bless the remaining members. I love them all dearly.❤🤗😍
I'm so thankful that Walter Hawkins used his talent and gifts for the glory of God. His music encourages, and points to Jesus and God, shows us how greatly we are loved. I know we all must leave this world at some point but Bishop Hawkins's passing is still difficult to accept in my heart. My mind knows and acknowledges that truth but the heart. 11APR18
Bishop showed his pure heart and emotions .Spiritually this song he actually song with true heart. It’s plain as can be his love for Tramaine the beautiful classy Mother of his kids. A real man he showed in this tribute. RIH Bishop
I can't do nothing but cry and thank God for the many year's he has kept me. My Family moved from Norfolk, Va. to Seaside, California in 1979. I will always love Greater Victory Temple COGIC. Under the leadership of the late Bishop Martin. That's how I learned the Hawkins FAMILY. BISHOP HAWKINS MUSC HAS BEEN RINGING IN MY SOUL THIS WEEK. MY HEART IS HEAVY... I must thanks my Family The late Bradford and Whilhemia Vaughan for moving my family out there, my Mom/ CLEMENTINE Deans Allen Stanley, Anthony "Tony" Allen and John "John-John" Allen. God, I thank you for favor over our lives.
Wow! What a piece of art. Always love Walter Hawkins (actually the whole family). Been listening to their preaching and music for years and still do. Bishop Hawkins songs has brought me from a long way. Thank you Lord for such awesome anointed individual. RIP
For me it was Walter Hawkins/Hawkins Family singers, The Clark Sisters and Andre Crouch growing up. Just beautiful music growing up. Sundays were something special in our home growing up. Thank you Mom & Dad for this beautiful foundation and making sure we learned about Jesus Christ-Amen.....
this has pulled my heart strings...tears are flowing...this was soooooooooooo beautiful. Here it is June 29, 2021, I'm watching this and being BLESSED! This couples' life is a testimony to how only JESUS can bless your life even in brokenness, and use that brokenness to BLESS OTHERS. Thank you, Lord for this couple. #miraclesoftheloavesandfish
MONIQUE PURCELL I've been crying all week to this song. I have a troubled 30 year old son who I can't do anything but pray for!! Im trusting in God. Thank u Lord Jesus!!
Remember my friends, anyone can praise God. Any... one. Now, some things, I leave to God's judgement, but I find his praise to be beautiful! Blessed be the name of the Lord!
I believe even our praise is given to us by God. Because we praise God for who He is and what he has done for us. Some people do not know what He has done. They can sing the songs and cry, but do they really realize the cost?
My God !!! I feel so privileged to have been a member of Bidhop Hawkins church for over 20 yrs...Such an Anointed man of God , your are very much missed, God had better plans, Rip Bishop Walter Hawkins
Thank you, Lord for your unconditional love and grace! Walter and Tramaine Hawkins thank you for blessing, encouraging, and inspiring me from my youth to adulthood through your amazing music, songs, and praise. You both were my early inspirers to full acceptance of life through Christ. Rest in peace Bishop Walter and know that you are still blessing us daily in praises and songs.

I love this video. Brings tears to my eyes. His love for Tramaine pure and despite of Walter respected Tramaine if they were still as one. To thank her for being part of his life means a lot. True love extends from the heart this videos shows nothing but love.Thank You Lord this video helped me. Everyday I listen to this. My ex and I split a many years but we always keep it real and the kids and grandkids always enjoyed us being around each other. He was sicken with cancer and God in my life I took care of him until death. I use to sit by his hospital bed and cry listening to this tribute. Thank You Lord. ❤❤❤
