The Rev. E. Dewey Smith Jr. bangs on the pulpit with his fist. He shuts his eyes and moans. Then a high-pitched sound rises from his throat like the wail of a boiling tea-kettle.
"I wish you'd take the brakes off and let me preach," he tells his congregation during his Sunday morning sermon.
Rows of parishioners stand to shout. One woman in a satiny blue dress jumps up and down like she's on a pogo stick. A baby starts to cry.
Smith had already given his congregation the "meat" of his message: scriptural references, archaeological asides, modern application -- all the fancy stuff he learned in seminary. Now he was about to give them the gravy.
It was the time to "whoop."
"One Tuesday morning, I heard the voice of Jesus saying, 'C'mon unto me and rest," Smith shouts as he punctuates his delivery with a series of guttural gasps and shrieks backed up by an organist's riffs. "But can I tell you what I did? I came to Jesus, just as I was. And I found in him joy in sorrow. Somebody shout yes. Yeessssss!"
To whoop or not whoop?
Smith may have sounded like he was screaming. But those who grew up in the African-American church know better. He was whooping. He was practicing an art form that's divided the black church since slavery.
Whooping is a celebratory style of black preaching that pastors typically use to close a sermon. Some church scholars compare it to opera; it's that moment the sermon segues into song.
Whooping pastors use chanting, melody and call-and-response preaching to reach parishioners in a place where abstract preaching cannot penetrate, scholars say.
Whooping preachers aim "to wreck" a congregation by making people feel the sermon, not just hear it, says the Rev. Henry Mitchell, a scholar who identified the link between whooping and African oral traditions.
"The old folks used to say, 'If you ain't felt nothing, you ain't got nothing,''' Mitchell says.
Yet the black church has long been ambivalent about whooping. Some scholars say contemporary black churches are abandoning whooping because they think it's crass. But more white preachers are discovering it through TH-cam and by sharing the pulpit with black preachers.
The most persistent debate over whooping revolves around its legitimacy. Is it fair to call it an art form? What's so hard about a preacher screaming and sweating in the pulpit?
Those are the critics who say whoopers are minstrels, not ministers.
"The hairs on the back of my neck stand up when people say that," says the Rev. Martha Simmons, a whooping preacher and scholar. "It is a genuine art form."
Simmons says the best whoopers use their voices like instruments. They're following rules of rhythm, tone and melody. All good whoopers have some "music" in their throat, says Simmons, editor of "Preaching with Sacred Fire," an anthology of black sermons dating back to 1750.
If you think whooping is easy, Simmons says, try listening to a preacher who can't whoop but tries to anyway.
"It's like listening to someone try to sing opera who is not an opera singer," she says. "It's a train wreck."

This man sings all the good hymns. Hymns have gotten lost these days but are more powerful than any chart topping song in the world.
I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH THIS SONG ON MY MIND, I HAD TO LISTEN TO IT ....THANK U JESUS FOR THE BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Likewise for me this morning!!! Glory to God!
Same!
Well it's still going strong as I woke up singing this song. Yesterday, today and forever more. 🖐🏾🖐🏾
Me too!
I've never heard of someone's blood being celebrated for such a long time and every time this blood is still fresh, removing guilty stains! Thank you Pastor Smith for this redintion which is a constant reminder. Thank you Jesus for the blood🙏
There is something about pastor Smith when he sings these songs especially this one. I played this song in my car on Utube while I drive for over 70 Miles, it brings the anointing all over my body while driving its brings such a nice feeling in my Mind Soul and Body.
Even in 2024 the lyrics are still as relevant and hymn still a blessing
I cannot even listen to this song without crying, I cannot even stop the tears. Thank you God for providing an escape for the people that you love so lavishly, unconditionally and outrageously.
HALLELUJAH, THANK U JESUS FOR THE BLOOD OF JESUS!!!!!
Yes Jesus. We had not known love except God loved us so immensely first.
The Lord is my Shepherd! -Psalm 23
amen hallelujah
Same here brother glory to God. Tears just flowing
Thank you for singing about the blood of Jesus because the only time my church sings about the blood and the cross and Jesus himself is on communion Sunday. Keep these old traditional Gospel songs going because we need them today more than ever
And sinners plunge beneath the flood, lose all their guilty stains!! Nothing but the blood!! Thank you a Lord!
HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pastor Smith is my favorite hymn singer other than my daddy! My daddy is an old school country pastor who sings all these songs before he preaches. Even before he was pastoring he always sung these songs and they touch my heart every time! Thank you for this video! Blessings upon blessings! 🙏🏽
You are right about that... it still works. If me, an intellectual-minded former Atheist can plunge beneath the flood... and lose all his guilty stains... ANYONE can.... Didn't think it was possible, BUT GOD.
Welcome brother!
Amen welcome my bro.
Thank you Christ for Your blood
This is a song from my childhood church. I searched TH-cam to find a video where a choir sang it the way we used to, and this was by far the best! They sang it so beautifully it literally brought tears to my eyes.
Praise God, loose all our Guilty Stains
same thing i did to find these songs that I grew up listening too
Always brings me to tears, the price Jesus paid to redeem us from our many sins
Pastor E. Dewey always take us to church!!!❤
The older gospel songs always make me cry!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
1. There is a fountain filled with blood
drawn from Emmanuel's veins;
and sinners plunged beneath that flood
lose all their guilty stains.
Lose all their guilty stains,
lose all their guilty stains;
and sinners plunged beneath that flood
lose all their guilty stains.
2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
that fountain in his day;
and there may I, though vile as he,
wash all my sins away.
Wash all my sins away,
wash all my sins away;
and there may I, though vile as he,
wash all my sins away.

May 9 2021 is there anybody that is listening to this song me? Lord have your way and have mercy.
I so wished churches would continue with the hymns those are the songs that have kept me and is keeping me... this is my foundation.. one of my favorite hymns ever..
Songs of OLD have a better meaning to help someone's soul become free then songs o f today. They carried the anointing yoke breaking power
Powerful song. I kept this video on repeat and was taken to Calvary. Thank you Jesus for the cleansing blood. Denise T, no church should shun you if you are poor, may the Lord bless you in abundance. The Lord is not interested in your outward appearance, but your heart. God bless you Pastor keep those hymns alive
Sorry God is actually interested in both your inward and outward appearances! Romans 12: 1 and 2
This song used to make me cry all the time during communion....

me three.. soo touching..
Still moves me each time I hear it.
Absolutely, same here
Amen
As I was called to preach tonight this song keep ringing in my mind, then I remembered that the blood of Jesus washes us clean from every filthy thing and makes us clean.
This songs represents why the blood of jesus is so powerful.

I was looking for this vid for the past year, thank u soo much for putting this up
The Church I grew up in sung this Song during Communion time
I always come back to this vid no matter how old I get.
This song will always remind me of a very special pastor I had growing up. Dr. Todd Morris. He used to love this song and didn't sing all the time, but when he did it was one of his go tos. A country preacher with a personality! Could give paint picures and tell stories with sweet words that touched the heart.
In the early 2010's he lost the battle with cancer and threw off corruption and put on incorruption. Threw off mortality and put on immortality. He was a great pastor and one of my regrets in life is not making it known enough that he meant that much to me because at the time I was in my mid teens when he died. What a beautiful song and sang very well by this pastor. If you take anything from this be sure to let people who make a difference and mean something to you know that they do as often as you can.
Wow ... am so touched listening and worshipping from Shanghai, China
KWESI KWESY To God be the Glory
what a great song thank rev smith.
