See how much spirit can be in a small church and it doesn't have to be one of these mega churhes. Nothing against mega churches but this is how we did it back in the day in little neighborhood churches. You can feel the spirit just looking and listening to this tape!!!
Al Green doesnt dibble dabble with God and Secular music....He gives Praise and thanks to God in everything he does....He is singing about LOVE in all of his songs and if you know and understand God you will know that GOD IS LOVE!
The boy is tearing stuff up. Remind me when I was a kid coming up in the sanctified Church, the Church of God in Christ. That's how we used to and still do it. In 2025
Lyrics The Lord Will Make a Way Somehow Verse 1 Like a ship that's tossed and driven, battered by an angry sea When the storms of life are raging, and their fury falls on me I wonder what I have done, that makes this race so hard to run Then I say to my soul, "Take courage, the Lord will make a way somehow." Chorus The Lord will make a way somehow when beneath the cross I bow He will take away each sorrow; let Him have your burdens now When the load bears down so heavy the weight is shown upon my brow There's a sweet relief in knowing the Lord will make a way somehow. Verse 2 Try to do my best in service, try to do the best I can When I choose to do the right thing evil's present on every hand I look up and wonder why that good fortune passed me by Then I say to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow." Verse 3 Often there's misunderstanding out of all the good I do I go to friends for consolation, and I find them complaining, too So many nights I toss in pain, wondering what the day will bring Then I say to my heart, "Don't worry, the Lord will make a way somehow." I have this version that my Dad often sang - I am on a heavenly highway, leading to that land above All this world I have forsaken, just to serve the One I love Though the way gets rough and rugged, low before the cross I bow, Saying to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow." Chorus: Lord, I need someone to guide me, as I travel on my way Hear me Lord and give me comfort every time I kneel and pray I get a little glimpse of Heaven while at His feet I humbly bow Saying to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow" Sometimes my friends misunderstand me, they refuse to shake my hand Satan tells me I'm a failure, it's then I firmly take my stand Let the world despise and leave me, Jesus is a friend that's true Oh, how sweet to heat Him whisper, "I will make a way for you" Repeat chorus
thank you 4 u providing those verses I read them and they ministered 2 my soul I had never new all the verses thank you thank You thank you Jesus Christ I need this
I listened to alot of "secular" artist try to sing gospel but something with Al shows it's natural because it's what he knew before going pro. Alot of r&b were singing in church as a child but Al SANG in church. Singing in choir and singing in service is two different things. U can tell Al sang in service as he shows here. This is that U walkin by a church and U walk in cause U can hear the music and it moves U.
Amen ,Amen I am enjoying myself am morning. 3:43, Having a great time. Blessings to everyone. Sing this song Al Green, Lord Making me a Way All the time. He's been so good to me Amen,Amen Amen.
Al green you are awesome, several years ago i saw you at the wellmont theater in Montclair, nj as my son gifted me with a ticket to see you, keep on letting god make a way.
Al. Green, so true God is making a way, somehow, right now we are all going through. God is making a way for us. He's. Blessings. Blessings Blessings us.
The Lord will make a way.The Lord will make a way outta no way.Rev AL Green one of my favorite when we look at what's going on in our world today see the goodness in the land of the living.keep trusting in the Lord
This is truly a blessed uplifting song. One of my favorites. It also makes me think about while there's church going on upstairs, downstairs the mothers of the church are cooking and preparing Sunday dinner and getting everything ready. That good ol southern down south dinner.
The lil boy in the blue suit is me and that’s my mom and auntie behind him. They was apart of Four Mile Gospel Choir from New Ellenton, South Carolina. My mom and aunt still look the same lol
WOW! Wish I could see the video that got the congregation crying and praising before this song! As usual, Al Green is in the Spirit. I think Al Green feels the Spirit everytime he sings!
I have this video some where around the house lol.I remember watching it on TV with my dad who was a Pastor he highly enjoyed it and was a fan of The Rev.Al after that RIP Dad!
Everyone in the world should watch & listen (that's the more important thing) to this every morning of every day. Imagine how different this world would be!
@Sangria3 Yes! So right! "I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now." And no matter how far u stray, and no matter what the world says, YOU know, down in your secret soul, what u experienced in those little storefront churches, hand-me-down churches, country brush arbors, & in the tabernacles.....and YOU know it's real, if nothing else in this world still is. "For where any two are gathered together in my name....." And it keeps you.
I love this song...... but never heard it sang in this way. I much prefer the way i know it's more touching and a blessing to me. Thanks for sharing this version though ;)
Boy Al Green giving his all as he always does and most of the. people are a bunch of dead heads! I was surprised to so mabtmy people be able to. be fairly still with him right in front of them. I would not been able to to do that. I would have bren flat our gone in the experience of the moment. I LOVE AL GREEN!🌸🌸🌸🌸
@lamar boyd You know how Jesus LOOKED? That's amazing. Is that what Jesus was all about, how somebody LOOKS? Too bad for me then, since I'm a woman. Your brand of Jesus must not be the same Jesus who said, in John 6:37 (KJV), "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." In that same Chapter, Verse 40, Jesus said, "And this is the will of him who sent me that every one which seeth the Son,and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day." In Verse 44 of that Chapter, Jesus said, "No man can come to me, except the Father which has sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." As a woman I didn't take the "him" part of that personally or with offence, because I understood the context, plus I love and trust him, although I notice that many of you "hims" do seem to do that, along with deciding who is or who is not acceptable to Jesus based on what color they are or how they are dressed or whether they are wealthy or poor or in-between, or countless other nit-picky, joy-sapping soul crushers that Jesus never ever said or endorsed. By the way, most of the people who looked "more like" Jesus's earthly incarnation rejected him utterly. So I'm not sure how much of a claim on his "Club Favorites" list that particular qualification purchases for the persons who are counting on the fact that they look" more like him " to get them a seat right under Jesus's elbow, where they can look down on those of us riff-raff who don't LOOK anything at all like Jesus, except for being covered in his lifeblood (with which he purchased us and made us his own). Personally, THAT is good enough for me. You can look down on me throughout Eternity. I don't mind at all. (: (: (:
I agree with you, I love this man I really do but I have had the pleasure of reading his biography, and he stated with his own lips that he feels like it's (3) Al Greens living inside of him. He said you never know which one you're going to get! He said he could be on stage ready to sang gosple and the secular Al Green comes out,or he could be ready to deliver secular and the preacher comes out. He said it depends on who wins the battle that day! The biography is (Take Me To The River) Gobuyit!
Man, you can really see the Sam Cooke influence in this video. Yes, Al Green is his own man; a magnificent singer and performer. However, if you know Sam Cooke the way that I do; then you know what I mean. Al Green was 15 years younger than Sam Cooke; he grew up on Sam.
to all white people making fun of us the harder the tribulation the harder the praises we are yah people that's why we say yah come buy her yah praise yahsha aka Jesus Now that to the bank
@bgw48 definitely can identify with the 3 persons in 1 thang. so glad it is that way, cuz I couldn't do without all 3 of em! Al Green = music personified
Absolutely correct!! It's impossible to serve(2)masters!! You can not be luke warm.You're either for God or against him. That other comment went to you about the biography on him!!
2024 still here. Praise him 🙏🏾🙌🏾
See how much spirit can be in a small church and it doesn't have to be one of these mega churhes. Nothing against mega churches but this is how we did it back in the day in little neighborhood churches. You can feel the spirit just looking and listening to this tape!!!
Yesssssuhhh!👏👏👏👏
I like it ☺️
This is the way to stop problems PRAISING THE LORD.
Yes indeed!
Amen! He is the reason!
GLORY
AMEN AMEN AMEN
Hallelujah
My momz and aunt in tha choir on this video.. I grew up in tht church

Awesome
Al Green doesnt dibble dabble with God and Secular music....He gives Praise and thanks to God in everything he does....He is singing about LOVE in all of his songs and if you know and understand God you will know that GOD IS LOVE!

The boy is tearing stuff up. Remind me when I was a kid coming up in the sanctified Church, the Church of God in Christ. That's how we used to and still do it. In 2025

He was filled with the spirit
Leave that man alone. He is AL GREENE, the best. No matter what he sings, he is the man.
if you believe in the LORD he will make away for you
Lyrics The Lord Will Make a Way Somehow
Verse 1
Like a ship that's tossed and driven, battered by an angry sea
When the storms of life are raging, and their fury falls on me
I wonder what I have done, that makes this race so hard to run
Then I say to my soul, "Take courage, the Lord will make a way somehow."
Chorus
The Lord will make a way somehow when beneath the cross I bow
He will take away each sorrow; let Him have your burdens now
When the load bears down so heavy the weight is shown upon my brow
There's a sweet relief in knowing the Lord will make a way somehow.
Verse 2
Try to do my best in service, try to do the best I can
When I choose to do the right thing evil's present on every hand
I look up and wonder why that good fortune passed me by
Then I say to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow."
Verse 3
Often there's misunderstanding out of all the good I do
I go to friends for consolation, and I find them complaining, too
So many nights I toss in pain, wondering what the day will bring
Then I say to my heart, "Don't worry, the Lord will make a way somehow."
I have this version that my Dad often sang -
I am on a heavenly highway, leading to that land above
All this world I have forsaken, just to serve the One I love
Though the way gets rough and rugged, low before the cross I bow,
Saying to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow."
Chorus:
Lord, I need someone to guide me, as I travel on my way
Hear me Lord and give me comfort every time I kneel and pray
I get a little glimpse of Heaven while at His feet I humbly bow
Saying to my soul, "Be patient, the Lord will make a way somehow"
Sometimes my friends misunderstand me, they refuse to shake my hand
Satan tells me I'm a failure, it's then I firmly take my stand
Let the world despise and leave me, Jesus is a friend that's true
Oh, how sweet to heat Him whisper, "I will make a way for you"
Repeat chorus
Nancy Foix Thank you for posting this! 😄
Urw

This mane is still singing and giving God praise, he just sang this song at my aunt Elnora Byrd's funeral. Love this vessel!

This is that U walkin by a church and U walk in cause U can hear the music and it moves U.
My Grand daddy loved himself some Al Green
Same here. We couldn't touch his Al Green records.
This song made me smile as a child because it made me realize gospel didn't have to be corny. I still love it very much.
Amen ,Amen I am enjoying myself am morning. 3:43, Having a great time. Blessings to everyone. Sing this song Al Green, Lord Making me a Way All the time. He's been so good to me Amen,Amen Amen.
Visited his church a couple weeks ago,,, he is STILL the same!!! STRAIGHT CHURCH!! Singing

@Sangria3 Yes! So right! "I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now." And no matter how far u stray, and no matter what the world says, YOU know, down in your secret soul, what u experienced in those little storefront churches, hand-me-down churches, country brush arbors, & in the tabernacles.....and YOU know it's real, if nothing else in this world still is. "For where any two are gathered together in my name....." And it keeps you.

Even when you can not see why Jesus is leading the way to true light,He give s us the choice to choose 😇big Al keep the praises coming
The Spirit is everywhere...even on TH-cam, and out of my speakers! This is the logical conclusion of this song...it all comes together here!
My Grandmama was in this and still goes there
I saw him one time in Brooklyn, NY. He shared a moving story about his father being a share cropper. I think that motivated him to be successful. 👍
I would love to see the part of this where he sang "When the Gates Swing Open".
dude is killin on Set adn Al Green is a beast wen it comes to sangin gospel
I love this song...... but never heard it sang in this way. I much prefer the way i know it's more touching and a blessing to me.
