From the mid-1950s until 1975, Estil Cortez Ball performed with his wife Orna and their Friendly Gospel Singers in churches and on the radio, especially on WKSK (AM) in West Jefferson, North Carolina and WBOB (AM) in Galax, Virginia. Ball's first recordings were made by John A. Lomax on behalf of the Library of Congress at the 1937 Galax Fiddler's Convention in Galax, Virginia, where E.C. performed with his Rugby Gully Jumpers string band (named after Paul Warmack's Gully Jumpers). Lomax recorded the string band and several duets by E.C. and Orna. John's son Alan Lomax recorded Ball three years later, in 1941, at E.C.'s home in Rugby, Virginia, and there again in 1959.

County Records released Ball's first LP in 1967, as E.C. Ball and the Friendly Gospel Singers. Two more LPs followed in the 1970s on Rounder Records: E.C. Ball and Fathers Have A Home Sweet Home. Ball was also recorded by John Cohen for his 1975 compilation album High Atmosphere: Ballads and Banjo Tunes from Virginia and North Carolina.

E.C. Ball's most famous composition was a piece he called "Tribulations," based, as he told Alan Lomax in 1959, "on the last book in the Bible: Revelations." It has been frequently covered by other musicians as "Trials, Troubles, Tribulations."

Ball died in 1978 in Grassy Creek, North Carolina, and is buried at Corinth Baptist Church in Rugby, Grayson County, Virginia.

In December 2009, a tribute album was released entitled Face A Frowning World: An E.C. Ball Memorial Album, on the Tompkins Square label, produced by Nathan Salsburg. Singers interpreting songs from E.C.'s repertoire include Jolie Holland, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Jon Langford, the Handsome Family, Rayna Gellert, and Catherine Irwin, among others.

LYRICS:
[Verse 1: Jennifer Hudson, Jennifer & Scott, Jennifer, Scott & Mitch]
Oh Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout, the universe displayed

[Chorus: Jennifer Hudson, All]
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (How great thou art)
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (Great thou art)

[Verse 2: Scott & Jennifer Hudson]
When through the woods, and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook, and feel the gentle breeze

[Chorus: Jennifer Hudson, All]
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (How great thou art)
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (Great thou art)
[Verse 3: Jennifer Hudson]
When Christ shall come, with shouts of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration
And then proclaim, "My God, how great Thou art"

[Chorus: Jennifer Hudson, All]
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (How great thou art)
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art, how great thou art

Sarah They skip the most important part of the song:
“And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on a cross
My burdens gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin”

Guys, we all love Avi and we all miss him. But let’s give Matt a try. I’m sure he also wants to give his best for Pentatonix. Let’s just try to look at it in a positive POV - that is, Pentatonix is still out there singing for us, creating music and bringing light and inspiration to us. This is one of those times that they will need our full support. Let’s just celebrate whatever there is today. Advance Merry Christmas everyone!

Cat Jefferson

A modulation is not the tough part for any vocalist who has a decent ear. I know from experience. Modulating up or down has never been hard for me. What's tough is getting the arrangement down pat and the rehearsal time to get it flawless for live performance . Jennifer didn't just get up and sit in with them, and that wasn't just one rehearsal to get it perfected like that.

Two bands I've been in would do what the Eagles used to do, and that is to sit in a circle, no mics and only a guitar (or keyboard) to get the key correctly, and then block out the parts if it wasn't just a simple 1-3-5 harmony Then sing a capella till it was perfect. Only then would we get on the mics and sing with the full instrumentation. The Eagles called that type of vocal rehearsal The Circle of Fear. Don't know why because I loved doing it that way!

Don't do that. Jen tries to tone down but she is such a belter with powerful vocals that you can't help but hear her. I think it's rather rude of you discounting her talent like they had to subdue their talents in order for hers to shine.

Ugh why is everything they do always so perfect and Jennifer's voice is so powerful! I still can't get over it and I've watched like 5 times in a row lol

DellyB12 because she doesn't sing well in a group. Has a great powerful voice tho. Just need to stick to solos

I’d rather they not disrespect the Christian faith by turning gospel songs into covers. Wouldn’t people be offended if they appropriated other religions’ worship?

I actually love their covers, and I'm a christian. Christians actually don't easily feel offended as long as it doesn't offend its teachings.

Did PTX make a recording of just the 5 of them singing this? Jennifer Hudson does a spectacular job, I would just love to hear Mitch or Kristie in the lead.
