I don’t know about anybody else but I know the Lord has been, and has always came through for me! Although she has passed, I used to believe that I went to church because my grandmother would’ve wanted me to. But now I truly go because I appreciate and worship the Lord as my savior.
So with that being said, I would like to provide y’all with a few tracks that get me through my rough times and remind me of all the blessings that have been bestowed upon me.
- Total Praise by Richard Smallwood: Something about the notes hit in the song and how their hit makes me cry every time it’s sung by a live choir with soul. This song itself proves that in order to sing a gospel song the right way you have to have been through something in this life.
- The Battle Is Not Yours by Yolanda Adams: My grandmother would sit and rock in this recliner in the corner of her room, and when I envision her doing that this song plays in the background. Baby, this song is the ultimate get me through a tough time track.
- Melodies From Heaven by Kirk Franklin: I firmly believe that every Black person knows this song. Like whether or not you go to church every Sunday, and regardless of your vocal skills, this is a sing along and worship the Lord song.
- One Wing by Jordin Sparks: Y’all know the funeral scene in Sparkle? The one where Jordin Sparks just goes off! Like completely off!
- Never Would Have Made It by Marvin Sapp: Marvin Sapp is like the grandaddy of my gospel playlist. This song here literally gives all glory to God and I love it!
