    I want to thank everyone who liked and commented on this video. I was fortunate to sit in the first row with my children. It was so emotional and special; I was in tears a lot. I am grateful for the opportunity to share this special moment. Happy New Year and best wishes of world peace, health, happiness, and beautiful music to you all.

      Honestly, this has become my favourite video. Thanks a bunch for sharing this. It shows the beauty of faith, family and love. A true gift from God. And I loved listening to Elder Goldwire for quite some time and when I found out that he was Samara's Grandfather, it blew me away! I watch this video all the time and I always smile from ear to ear! God bless you and thanks again.🙏🙏🙏

    As much as I love Samara and all that she brings, I love how she sat back and honored her grandfather. They are all amazing. I requested and received both of her vinyls for Christmas. I look forward too seeing her perform live.

    I just love my Mclendon family. GOD IS still Blessing you! We grew up in the same church under my uncle's tutelage; Pastor TJ Martin. Bethel Holy Temple was Blessed with many gifts, but one of our rarest treasures was The McClendon Family. They served GOD without the pretense many artist possess today. When my mother died, they 'sang' at her homegoing service and provided a very bright spot to a very horrific experience. I still remember their melodic tones till this day. They come across through the grands incredible voices😂! I miss Aunt Ruth, Kenny & Beverly. Rest on Tom and Carl❤❤❤
