Fun fact: Kirk Franklin was the director of this choir. And another fun fact: the song “I Rather Have Jesus” was also revamp by Kirk Franklin’s own version from his first album “Silver and Gold” which is on the lyrics in this particular song
I am a 71 year old man. On October of 2022, I discovered this lovely song. My goodness mercy! What a jam! I am bless with this beautiful arrangement! What a talented choir! Great lead vocals! Great musicians! Love My Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you! Love all of you in Christ! Be bless! Bye for now!
One of the best choir songs ever written! Had the honor of singing this in a mass choir at a church convocation! We killed it & the spirit of God was so strong in that place! This brings back so many great memories! ❤️🔥🙌🏾
BM courage my brother or sister remember you are the church the kingdom of God is in you and within you when you feel this song brought up in your spirit you know that you're giving God glory go and raise your voice open your mouth and give him praise the church building and its components have nothing to do with worshiping God be encouraged my sister
This is TRUE gospel that I remember growing up with. Love it! This was the day of more unadulterated music that celebrated the magnificence and awesomeness of Jesus Christ! I miss this! I hear too many gospel songs these days that talk about "haters", "hating on me in Jesus name", and so many other things that take away the message of Jesus as our risen savior and puts the focus on us! The devil is a lie and I am so thankful that there are those that are continuing to press towards the mark.
Hallelujah I'm sitting here driving my daughter to school and this song was in my spirit. I had already been in prayer and then Thanksgiving in my heart about my choices and telling Jesus yes and no to fear no condemnation no to my soul being lost. And it is very true I declare I rather have Jesus
When I see that people press the thumbs down on a video like this, I'm like, "What exactly don't you like??? The fact that it's not a live video with the choir actually singing? The color or font of the lyrics??? That the photos weren't crystal clear??? You know the lead singer personally and just don't like HIM??? That church??? Choirs in general???" Because who would just not like this song??? 💁🏾♀️💁🏾♀️💁🏾♀️💁🏾♀️💁🏾♀️
This SO reminds of my teenage years in the 90s when I was part of the choir. These were the type of songs we sing! Now we barely have big choirs in church
It is 2019, and I'm going through the exact same situation as this dear sister. This clip was sent to my choir to listen to & learn. I started reading the comments and I know God directed me to this! Thank you God for responding to my current situation. My times are in your hands
Oh my goodness gracious! This song dropped in my Spirit this morning, and I had to find it. I am 79 years young and I have known this song that DFW Choir sings forever, and I thank the LORd for waking me up with this song!
+Keith Jackson They probably don't feel the song. There are a lot of gospel songs that I don't feel the spirit to. Yes, I understand it's about Jesus but this song right here is not doing anything to my spirit. I don't particularly like contemporary gospel.
My choir at my church, Perfecting, sings this and when my Pastor gets a hold of it.......watch out. Here comes the Holy Ghost. I just love this song. There is nothing like a choir that can sing.
I LOVE THIS SONG WHEN I AM WITH JESUS MY FEAR IS GONE IN THE GREAT QUIET OF GOD.MY TROUBLES ARE AS PEBBLES ON THE ROAD.MY JOYS ARE LIKE THE EVERLASTING HILLS.
Heeeeyyyy! This my jam..I rather have Jesus more than anything! A church came to visit ours and when their choir sung this it was holy ghost filled. I enjoyed myself in the Spirit. It was totally awesome!!!!talk about how he died for me on Calvary!!!! Yes!!!that's my part now!
This song blessed me then, & it blessed me now!!! I'd rather have JESUS, any day of the week, every hour, of the day!! If you really rest in your spirit, it will groove you soulfully!🙏🙌😇
This song brings tears to my eyes because i overcame a lot of things in my life i went through a divorce and i didn't let it overtake me because i had the man upstairs to keep me through that's all i needed
This song doesnot grow old. I rather have Jesus
Fun fact: Kirk Franklin was the director of this choir. And another fun fact: the song “I Rather Have Jesus” was also revamp by Kirk Franklin’s own version from his first album “Silver and Gold” which is on the lyrics in this particular song

When choirs were just choirs! 🙋
What are they now?
@@camilsanders2010 just people trying to hit the runs and out sing each other
AMEN
without all the other stuff... lights, camera, action.... performance
It sure would be nice to have "church" music and choirs. This is some soul cleansing music. I prefer choirs than praise teams.
I miss going to church with music like this. Whose still listening to this song in 2020?

+Keith Jackson They probably don't feel the song. There are a lot of gospel songs that I don't feel the spirit to. Yes, I understand it's about Jesus but this song right here is not doing anything to my spirit. I don't particularly like contemporary gospel.
