im proud to say that's my great great uncle andy leading the song. and most of the videos on here from sc churches are of my family members. i might have left home, but my people are always with me. these hymns have gotten me thru so much as an adult
I was reading where God did tell Hezekiah he was gonna die....and Hezekiah did die..but Hezekiah prayed to the Lord and the Lord spared him 15 more years....now that is evidence that prayer changes things!!!! Alpha and Omega God Is!
It's just amazing how people can make music as beautiful and complex as this without instrumentation. I can only imagine how powerful this music must be in person. I could barely make out the words, but the voices were unbelievably hypnotic. Can hardly imagine preaching behind this music. This is some of the most stirring music I've ever heard.
In 2011 if not 2012 I ran across this song. I listen to it and it took a hold over me. Next day I told my sister about this. Its now 2014 and it still got a hold over me and my sister. We never hear of hummsong. Now we listen to alot of the different songs and we have are favorites songs. I do remember in church when there were no music and people sing with the sprit.Just hands and feets. I was a lityle kid but I remember. Thank you all for this kind of music. It is so much a blessing. See you around the throne of God one day.
DIANE FWH Does it still have you like it got me in 1963....The gospel group, the Soul Stirrers, used a lot of this metered sound... Check out Stand by Me Father... written by Sam Cooke..you'll hear that same haunting sway...
+Brian Davidson Sounds like you already have a relationship, or you would not be able to experience the emotional significance that these spiritual songs stir within. Thank you for reminding me with the rainbow of God's everlasting promise. Gen 9: 12-16
MY LORD! The video (from hymnchoir) are bringing memories of my grandmother to life. It's SO unfortunate that generations now and in the future won't get to experience this type of service. Thank you for all of your videos.
How I miss these days when the songs had such strong meanings. Boy do this bring back memories, how I wish I could go back to these days, church now don't sing like this anymore..
I had an opportunity to see this guy in Baltimore, MD on this past Saturday (June 26, 2010). It was a joy and privaledge to be a part of this experience. I couldn't sit still myself!!
I love these vids. Please keep them coming!? I could listen to this all day myself! I love contemporary but its nothing like hymns!!! I am going to bring this song to my choir to be one of the songs we sing at older churches, and black history programs! BE BLESSED!!!
If you can't feel this...You don't have a pulse! The spirit was working this! I don't like it...I LOVE IT!!! I play this at least 3 times a day since last week!!! OMG...that's Rev. Parker he used to preach revival for my dad at Rock Hill Baptist for years!!! Thanks for posting this...
Not only does this song has truth &‘ Holy Spirit iTs contagious woW 😢 . My ppl are instruments All by They’re Self &‘ iCould iMagine bacK Then -Slavery Days How They Moved So Many Mountains &‘ Broke So Many Chains &‘ Was Willing To Die Because They Knew Him Like They Knew They’re Melanin Which Is Thee Chosen .

This brings back so many memories of my beloved grandmother may she Rest In Peace! These songs bring SO much joy to my heart! Hymnchoir, you are the BEST!!!
If you can't feel this...You don't have a pulse! The spirit was working this! I don't like it...I LOVE IT!!! I play this at least 3 times a day since last week!!!
wow!! are there still churches like this nowadays? it's absolutely amazing touching spiritual. nothing's more nice to hear then the God given vocals of the human voice without accompaniment!!
It is so great to happen upon these Hymn Choirs... Being a traditional Baptist, I often debate with my friend from "Word" Churches over what kind of music brings one into God's presence...My argument is that it is the sincerity of one's heart as one worships and not a music style (Contemporary Praise & Worship) that brings one in to the presence of the Lord....God inhabits the praises of his people. This video proves just that. A hymn from the heart will take me "in" any day.
For most of my childhood, I came up in the Apostolic Pentecostal church, but I was born Baptist and spent a few formative years in the AME Church. I absolutely LOVE the old school hymns....may they live on!
Thank you cousin Charles. I really miss my folks back home hope brother Andy is doing well,I asked about a few weeks ago no one had heard from him in a while.
I saw him in another video from 2010. He is one special saint and a great performer. I would love to know what Andy's occupation and story is/were. Did they know he could ding so well-attended his job!!! Thank ya..Jesus!!
Yes Sah !!!! This is good to me !!! Now thats church im 23 years old and i love this my man has a clip on tie and its on the collar but God moved all over him... as they say i just couldnt sit still im pretty sure he has gone on to be with the Lord but I would have love to see him for myself but thanks for the post keep them coming!!!
My God, My God, My God! I felt the power of prasing and worhsipping. TRUE BBELIEVERS that Jesus is coming back like a theif in the night. This is truly rich and steep in tradition and history of our people with teh style of call and response. I am so glad that I found it during Black History. I will share it with family, freinds and my students. Where I can I get a whole copy of this? Will glady pay for a service of singing hymns.
All I can say is thank you Jesus!!! I have been listening to these videos all day!!! Members of my family were original members of Mt Do Well and my grandfather built some of the original stuff. I am over 50. To just stumble across this today has been a great blessing and I can't wait to share them with friends and some of the younger members of our contemporary church. Please, please, please post more!!!!!!!!! Was that Rev Parker on the pulpit in one of the videos from Charlotte?
"Call and response". It's an old slave style. One person calls out the line, the rest respond. It's how the slaves used to sing while working on the plantations. It helped them to keep up the brutal rhythm of plantation labor. It may have come over with some of the Tribes from Africa. (Took two classes, one Music of the Whole Earth, one World Music, but can't remember everything.)
im proud to say that's my great great uncle andy leading the song. and most of the videos on here from sc churches are of my family members. i might have left home, but my people are always with me. these hymns have gotten me thru so much as an adult
What a beautiful heritage you hold. Keep this treasure close.
@@DIJITALSON Your Uncle has blessed me for many years with this video and others (where he backgrounds enthusiastically). I pray he is well.
Yes uncle Andy will live on forever heaven is his home now he up there singing with them angles
I was reading where God did tell Hezekiah he was gonna die....and Hezekiah did die..but Hezekiah prayed to the Lord and the Lord spared him 15 more years....now that is evidence that prayer changes things!!!! Alpha and Omega God Is!
Anita Haynes: Amen, sister!
It's 2022 and we're still keeping hymn alive. Pass this down to your kids and grands.

They're called metered songs. Comes from the deep South, black Christian tradition.
I am not a religious man, but these videos move me deeply.

Sir , the feeling that you are experiencing is the anointing of the Heavenly Father. The anointing breaks the yolk.
MY LORD! The video (from hymnchoir) are bringing memories of my grandmother to life. It's SO unfortunate that generations now and in the future won't get to experience this type of service. Thank you for all of your videos.

That's my great great Uncle Andy :) Sadly, he's in a nursing home now with dementia. He always had the church moving.
This reminds me of my grandmother church when she was alive no music just foot stomping & hand clapping always good services
I tell you the lord is moving in this piece, water's gathering in the well of my eyes. Did you see that brother "set down" at 5:35.
Yessss; SU'R!!!!! And the necktie still didn't MOVE!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👍🏼
It's been so long since I've heard a double clap.. miss those days!!

I could listen to this all day myself! I love contemporary but its nothing like hymns!!! I am going to bring this song to my choir to be one of the songs we sing at older churches, and black history programs! BE BLESSED!!!
After a year of playing this song regularly it still mesmerizes me. Oh how I wish I cold sing like that!
This took me back home to my Grandmother's church in Arkansas. They had South Carolina roots.
If you can't feel this...You don't have a pulse! The spirit was working this! I don't like it...I LOVE IT!!! I play this at least 3 times a day since last week!!! OMG...that's Rev. Parker he used to preach revival for my dad at Rock Hill Baptist for years!!! Thanks for posting this...

Does this style of singing have a name? How would one describe it to another person?
"Call and response". It's an old slave style. One person calls out the line, the rest respond. It's how the slaves used to sing while working on the plantations. It helped them to keep up the brutal rhythm of plantation labor. It may have come over with some of the Tribes from Africa. (Took two classes, one Music of the Whole Earth, one World Music, but can't remember everything.)
Call and response... also sometimes called Metered singing...
Is that the real name of the church " Mt Do Well Baptist Church", if so where is this church?.
Chester, S C
McConnel, SC
