    You can't beat God's giving, no matter how you try
    And just as sure as you are living
    And the Lord is in heaven on high
    The more you give, the more He give to you
    But keep on giving because it's really true
    That you can't beat God's giving
    No matter how you try

    Ms. Doris Ackers wrote this song back in 1957. She is sitting in with them while they are playing and singing the song she wrote. She does not get the recognition she deserves. She was an anointed woman of God. She played piano and wrote music and directed choirs. But most of all she loved the Lord. I just recently heard other gospel music that she wrote. What a blessing to the kingdom that she was. Rip Ms. Ackers.

    George had a cold might as well not have showed up, he sounded horrible. Boo, Billy showed up a living Beatle! Now I know why...he has Jesus on his side. Didn't know he was singing gospel. So happy to hear this❤

      "...he has Jesus on his side" ??? Seriously? THAT's your idea of Christianity? Taking sides...?
      Either we are ALL God's children, or... or WHAT?
      THAT, THERE, what you just said, as if it were a football game with winners and losers, is why I will NEVER be a Christian. Because you damn people who don't behave/believe as you think they ought.
      A really powerful belief is that EVERYONE is loved equally by a Loving God. But apparently that is too evolved for you.

    When i was 13 years old, my mom took us (my brother and me) to New York. We came from a small town in France, north east, in countryside. We played guitar, drums, saxophones.. listened to blues music, Afro American music and many more genres.
    No need to say we were amazed by our trip. On a Sunday morning, my mom decided to show us a gospel in Harlem. We were the only white people in front of the church, and we waited with everybody else.
    They didn’t let us come inside, because we were white foreigners.
    We completely understood, respected this situation and never been offended .
    But when I’m watching this, I’m crying. It might be so amazing to see this in real life. Music, people, and love.
    We don’t have this in french churches.

    Someone stated that this is PRAISE AND WORSHIP. Indeed, IT IS!!! It has been around a long, long, long time, even as far back as ancient Africa. Africans knew how to worship and praise the Lord dating back centuries in the Motherland. Our ancestor brought that soul and inspiration here to the U.S., the islands of the Diaspora, and so on. Wow, this is so REAL, so AUTHENTIC! It is so sad that a number of black churches stopped singing these soul-stirring hymns, spirituals, traditional gospel, and so on, and removed their (baby) grand pianos and Hammond organs and replaced them with electronic keyboard synthesizers that are so loud that they break the sound barrier. And the "groups" that are singing for the congregation (or rather, "audiences") as the choirs are "SAT DOWN," (okay, I won't go into that).

      Have you considered why such music puts a tear in your eye?
      Christian virtues are great. Jesus says, loving God, and Loving thy neighbour are the 2 greatest commandments; but the core of Christianity is Jesus' self-sacrificial love for us. Jesus lay down His life for you. This is why, 'you can't beet God's giving'.
      The Bible says:
      'And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God'. 1 John 4:16
      If you believe in Jesus, that He can save you from wrath to come, by dying for your sins on the cross and you trust in Him to save you and not your own works, and you believe this in your heart, the bible says you are saved; a Christian.
      What is stopping you from believing?
      Hope you get this message,
      God bless,
      Louis

He’s my favorite keyboardist & I’m an elderly white woman. I never did have the opportunity to attend a church service with a black congregation, but I wish I had because they just seem to be more spiritual & I think good Gospel music is a Church Ministry all unto itself.
