That is good that she is only singing for Christ only not for show.

@chadmccleese8984

We are all unworthy instruments that God uses. Through his blood we can be used to glorify God! She did it like no other. Thank you for your ministry. To God be the glory!

@miketiaabrams4170

This brought back so many memories when my grandma use to sing this a church 😭😢🥺😫

@bethsmothers-ortiz8424

Loved hearing her sing when Billy Graham had his ministry on TV.

@MarieHolliday

Mahalia was truly annonted by God.

@reginataylorhines

I love Mahalia Jackson. Her voice is anointed by God to sing praises to Him! I hope she is singing to Him in Heaven entertaining the angels.

@amypike818

I'm grateful for her faith that can still give comfort to others to this day.

@jcapril1

I'm not religious, but the beauty and grace and power of her faith and voice are deeply, deeply moving. Magnificent Mahalia Jackson!

How I wish this great woman of God were at the Inaugauration of President Obama.She was in the march from Alabama to Washington of 1963.Her music sums up the hopes and desires of African-Americans past,present and in the future who as their first African ancestors wandered when will "I be free" her music so touches the soul that it just brings tears to my eyes.Amen

Some people just have nothing better to do than be negative. It is a shame that people are not more positive. Mahalia Jackson is a treasure.

@marloncervantes2512

There is something so heartfelt, poignant and transcendent about classic gospel. I could listen for hours and feel every syllable, every nuance and truly appreciate the beauty, pain and weight of history behind every note!

Mahalia Jackson was truly an anointed singer whom brought compassion and sincerity to life with her powerful voice . God rest her soul because she was one of the best black gospel singers of all time.

@57hms19

Not meant as an argument,she was imo one of the very best singers ever,if not the very best of all time!

@chrisswider

Hearing Mahalia Jackson, for  a moment, I believe it's true that God looks down and knows that I am alive and struggling.

@JesseDavis7373

And you would be correct!

@omifabien4863

And well in power to deliver you out of your struggle . This song just showed me not only does God know what we're going through but he is our strength and guide through it all and our way maker. He's still preforming miracles and even if he didn't he's so sovereign.

@jaymemetzgar8407

It is true. And more than this: He loves you.

@monarchflyer9984

Mahalia Jackson filled stadiums.  Her voice brought black and white together in a time of  discord.  She took all that pain and turned it into song.

@danrose2517

@rob roy And Michael Jackson didn't? Your criticism is valid but you can apply it to almost every artist.
I appreciate that the message she brought helped people transcend their circumstances.

@mayfieldnorris4280

So u call racism "discord" lol

@sheilaprice5202

@rob roy She gave freely to US .. God bless her...She now has the crown of righteousness - so well deserved....Money have I none but what I have I give freely ..to those who would listen...She gave it all under adverse conditions,,, Amen

@thetruthandnothingbutthetr6484

When she sung " God Made Me Free ". I felt that. It means so much more coming from such a great singer of colour for obvious historical reasons and significance. Bless You, Oh Child Of God.

@CRAWFORDMN

It is a shame that there have not been another singer to not take the place of Mahalia, but to keep on singing the praises of God so beautiful as she did. Just an organ and a piano playing behind her magnificant voice, which she really did not need.. Arthea Franklin is the closes female singer to Mahalia, todate.

Birthday Remembrance of Mahalia Jackson.

She was an American Gospel Singer. Possessing a powerful contralto voice, she was referred to as "The Queen of Gospel".
MAY SHE CONTINUE TO REST IN ETERNAL PEACE!

@thumbprint7150

I love Mahalia and I love the conceit in this song, that God is watching the least of us but... who are you addressing when you say 'Oh come on y'all'? I don't see anyone disagreeing with you. And who is the 'we' you are talking about? I am constantly amazed at the things people on these threads take as given when addressing millions of other people with differing points of view. Like the idea that everyone is religious for a start - one can appreciate the amazing voice of Mahalia without being religious.
