Just a note... You'll notice the late O'Landa Draper in the front row behind the organist. Also in the video is Jeffrey White playing bass. - เพลง
I was 17 years old when this album was recorded and this song still is the one I attribute to keeping me seeking God more and more...other than His word and the Holy Spirit! Myrna Summers and Timothy Wright were focused on giving God their best...and their best was good enough! Rest On, Rev. Wright!
Moms and my siblings use to listen to this everyday Swinson family
My family STILL has the tape of this recording. I remember listening to this on the way to church on Sunday morning. Classic album!!!!
Fact of truth. Just that simple.
YES!...My goodness...I'm not that old but I'm old enough to remember this CD! This is when gospel was really good!
Caused worship erupted praise. And the Almighty was glorified!!!
I had this on vinyl album
I remember living in Memphis and listening to the radio at night FM 107 and 1340 WLOK listening to this music. Wow this brings me back to the pride that Memphis has in it's music heritage. Temple of Deliverance led the way with a "Spirit of Excellence"
Sang Myrna !!!
I remember all these songs, our old choir use to sing them, back in San Diego Ca
Yes we did in NJ
me to. i remember when the cd came to the house and nobody really knew neither one of these artists that well and the cd sat on the shelf for a while until it started hitting the radio. yep, "precious memories"
Min David Bratton on the organ. He was great then and is amazing now! God bless you Dave.
I was watching the dvd of this last night and I tell you this ministers to me everytime I watch it
I was a kid when this song was recorded, but it has always been one of my favorites!
this is so blessfull . its so beautifful.
thank you i have been looking for this sung forever!
I was just thinking about faith, though sometimes things come along to really try & make you doubt pray for me that I keep the faith
Joesph u r already n my pryrs. As u stated just hold on & u will be alright n God.
Great song, love it. God bless you Myrna Summers and May Timothy Wright RIP.
Thank you thegospelfillup1 for posting the 1988 release of "We're Gonna Make It" on Savoy Records. This song has gotten me through many dark times in my life. Faith is soooo important to hold onto. I remember listening to this on the way to church. My best-friend at the time used to play it. I'm so happy that I was able to make a copy of this classic. Now that I have found it online I keep it in heavy rotation, lol. Thank you x infinity and beyond.......
classic!!!....bout to cry!!!
I love it! Thanks so much for posting this. I had the album "We're going to make it".
@SamWiseGingy thats why God doesnt work with reason, he works with faith. either you believe or you dont. God isnt going to force himself on you nor does he have to answer to you to cinfirm his existance. if you ask, God will show you who he is, if not, that wont stop God from being God. we are only mere weak men. God is awesome, powerful, loving, forgiving and long suffering and magnificant, beautiful, wise, anything you need him to be. thats what faith is for.
The entire album is good. thre are not many albums in which I like EVERY Song, but this one...oh yes
amen i like this song
where can I get ALL of her recordings. I grew up listening and I still love her as if she come out as a new artist.
@CareALot78 "Faith, that cannot be denied, A force deep down inside..."
It's all good.
I love the part when the choir comes in and sings You can count on Jesus.
gold
Myrna Summers to me was always one of those gospel artists that was never given her due as a singer. That heffa could sing her behind off.
I remember when this recording came out and there was a big discussion that ensued for years. Should Gospel artists take secular songs and translate them into the church. Bishop Chandler D Owens led the charge. He spoke against it. I loved this album. I still do. But then we had no idea how the 80s would impact the genre.
THANK GOD FOR TH-cam IN A DAY WHEN SEEMINGLY THE CHURCHES OF TODAY FORGOT THAT GOSPEL MUSIC AS WELL AS SERMONS WAS SUPPOSE TO MINISTER TO THE SOUL AND NOT THE FLESH.
WELL, THE BIBLE DID SAY THAT IN THE LAST DAYS THERE WOULD BE AA FALLING AWAY. (and it did not say a "great" falling away, that is a mis-quote, look it up)
This Song is the gospel answer to the song "that's what friends are for"?
Does somebody have the video where the musicians were going in right after this song if so please post it.
I wish I could get this entire cd.. AS IS.. SN: why didn't Timothy give Myrna the louder microphone? She seem like she was singing very hard just to be heard..
Lol! The only way a Dianne Warwick song can be sung in church!
@SamWiseGingy WRONG!!!
faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things unseen - Hebrews 11:1
the letters in the word "FAITH" stand for "Finding An Impossiple Trial Hopeful."
in case your comment was ignorant sarcasm.
@SamWiseGingy you believe what you will and let me be about it. thats what going to bible classes are for, to learn in more detail and depth. that's what prayer is for , to receive revelation and discernment. im not going oto keep arguing about it. think about me what you will.
@SamWiseGingy that's why God sent his word. the bible said it that settles it for me. there's a scripture in the bible that simply states "Believe the gospel and repent." want the location i can send it to you. i'll admit it, im lazy when it comes to looking up scriptures.
