My favorite song is ” Shifting The Atmosphere” By Jason Nelson
J. Moss, Good and Bad is my favorite song
My favorite gospel song right now is Speechless by Anita Wilson. Its says to God just what it is we feel when He continues to bless us and love us and be with us, over & over again…and when He shows up in our life when we least expect it…we’re in awe!!! HE LEAVES ME SPEECHLESS!!!
My favorite gospel song right now is Mary Mary “Go Get It” and I always seem to listen to Byron Cage “I Will bless the Lord”
My favorite song is Smokie Norful’s “Mighty God”. This song blesses me every time I hear it. It keeps me going knowing that we serve a might God who can exceeding, abundantly, above all you could ever ask or think according to the power that worketh in us! Knowing that no matter what comes to you in life and what family and friends and the devil, God will make a way because he is a Mighty God!
Amen Brian!
Sunshine by the Clark Sisters…it’s an oldie, but goodie!! Also any song by Mali Msuic his voice is truly spirit filled.
Keyonda, I love Sunshine! Brings me back to cleaning up at home when I was younger, my mother would play the song over and over again.
My favorite gospel song is “Jesus Saves” by: Pastor Marvin Winans.

Vanessa Bell Armstrong – Peace be Still
My favorite gospel song is “To God Be The Glory”
What is this – Bishop Walter Hawkins, Becuase when you have something going on there is still that seed of faith that keeps me going!!!
Going through a few storms right now so the song that keeps me going is Vashawn Mitchell’s “Turning Around for Me”because i’m reminded that “it won’t always be like this and sooner or later, things will turn in MY favor”…
My favorite song right now is “Take Me To The King” by Tamela Mann. It just sums up how we as Christians feel sometimes, but won’t say because we are afraid of being “judged”. It let’s me know that it’s ok to feel weak as long as I know the King is strong.
My absolute FAVORITE SONG right now is “Take Me To The King”, by Tamela Mann…Why?? Because, “I don’t have much to bring..my heart is torn to pieces, but it’s my offering…Take me to the THRONE, and leave me there ALONE…to gaze upon His Glory, and sing to Him this song….
These were the sweetest lyrics… they ministered to me the VERY first time I heard them!! Thanks for asking, I enjoyed reading everyone’s replies!
My favorite gospel song is ” Go Get Your Blessing ” from none other than Mary Mary.
God kept me (so I wouldn’t let go) by Kurt Karr. This song is my living testimony to how good God is to me. I have experienced so much in my life. But when I’m at my lowest, God is right there. My husband has had three surgerys this year alone, as well as my daughter has had eye surgery, but to be kept by Jesus. Glory!!! I just know my test will someday be my testimony.
I have been going through a few things and what gets me through is “My Worhip is For Real”. ” You dont know my story, all the things that I’ve been through…You’ll never understand my praise dont try to figure is out, because my worship is for real.”
my most uplifting gospel song is by Marvin Sapp Best in Me because only God knows are limits and thats what I work to do everyday. Bring out the best in me in everything I do.
MY FAVORITE GOSPEL SONG IS ‘ I CAN MAKE IT’ BY NEW DIRECTION
my favorite gospel song is God did it. not sure who sings it. But some of the lyrics are EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO ME THAT IS GOOD GOD DID IT. And i attribute all my ups downs and turn arounds to God.
Evelyn Turrentine Agee
I have two all-time favorite gospel songs: The Clark Sisters – You Brought The Sunshine and The Georgia Mass Choir – Come On In The Room. When you let God come into the room He will definitely provide you with all the sunshine.
My favorite song is: In the sanuary by Kurt Carr..Your Grace and Mercy,Mississippi Mass Choir, I know without his grace and mercy, I wouldn’t be here today..for I know..I’m still here..The Williams Brothers
I’m new at this; ( I’m not sure what is my website URL ) but anyway my favorite gospel song is Don’t Be Discouraged (God Will See You Through) by Maurette Brown Clark. Knowing that My God will see me through gets me through all the setbacks and challenges I face daily.She reminds us the all we have to do is ask him.Trust him and he will work it out. To not be discouraged because He has never let us down before so why would he start now. He comes to rescue us; so Don’t Be Discouraged. God will see you through…….. here he come to rescue you.
My Favorite song is ” I Need You To Survive” by Hezekiah Walker. In this day and age, that song really hits home. Not only do we need JESUS, but we need our friends and loves ones to stand by us at ALL times. Not just the good times, but the good bad and even when it gets ugly! You just cannot make it alone in this world. Everybody needs somebody.
STOMP, by Kirk Franklin. Gotta move to this one!
My Faorite Gospel song= Jesus Can Work It Out – Diane WIlliams. Oldie but goodie!! Both new and old versions!!
My favorite gospel song is For Every Mountain. That song right there is a constant reminded of who God is and what he does for us when we are at our lowest points. I don’t care where I am at or who I am with, this song sends me into a deep praise.
My favorite gospel song is Never Would Have Made It by Marvin Sapp. When I was diagnosised with Lupus. I almost threw in the towel. Someone called and told me to listen to this song. And it truly blessed my soul.
