Yes. I want to know who that was on the piano. It reminds me of the pastor's daughter when I was growing up - absolutely identical style and the last time I heard Sheri Benvenuti play was over 50 years ago. I am desperate to know who that was. They transported me to a wonderful place. I cried my head off.
Jennifer Holliday did a very nice rendition of this gospel classic...BUT...the thing that made this performance an INSTANT CLASSIC were the fingers stroking those bones!! THAT PIANO WAS LEGENDARYYY!! RIP CONGRESSMAN LEWIS

This song ""Precious Lord", always brings me to tears. Both of my favorite aunts died in 2001 to cancer months apart. At the loss my aunt who was a head nurse in Los Angeles, I was a mess tryiing to get to California, crying throughout the trip, I had to fly to pack up my Grandmother who was in her 80s at the time, from Florida and take her to California bury her youngest daughter...my Father had died of an anueyrism years before....At the grave site, after the church service, out of nowhere, a deacon started singing this song in the most heartfelt soulful manner, not a dry eye was to be seen, it was spontaneous and I will NEVER forget the comfort it brought to all of us saying goodbye to this wonderful woman, who cared for so many patients in her career. God Bless Jennifer Holiday who I saw in Dream Girls in NYC back in the 1980s, you have Honored Rep. John Lewis, who will be forever beloved to all of us.
Yes Thomas Dorsey truly a genius. They did a documentary on him a few years back. He said he was at work and they called for him to come home. When he got there and waiting for news from the doctor I believe the baby died first and then his wife. He said he just sit down on the couch and said precious Lord take my hand. It was on channel 9.
For those who criticize that she sounds horrible it's not a paid concert it showing respect for great man💯 and for those who put their thumbs down you probably cannot even singnot one note 🤔🤔
A rousing rendition of a gospel classic. Reminds me of my youth growing up, one of my mother's all time favorites. Sent chills through me, cried throughout the song. God Bless you Congressman Lewis. Thank you for your leadership to this troubled nation!
People are a mess!!! Why do we have to judge in the midst of sorrow!! Let’s celebrate!!!!! Not judge on how person should have sang or who they should have chose to sing. This is about celebrating a man who loved and fought for his people to the day he died!!!!
No words to say except this woman is awesome. She is awesome. The anointing of the Holy Spirit is in her. Everytime she has ever song good music I can feel in my bones. She is blessed and I love Jennifer Holiday.😇😇😇
The only people that click the, "Dislike" button and make nasty comments at ANYONE'S Homegoing, are people who has hate in their heart. Father God forgive them!.
Love the legendary Jennifer Holiday she's the best she's one of the best I'll stand and outstanding blessed for voice she has been a blessing down through the years with her richness of her gift thank God for you Jennifer Holliday you are still a cut above the rest Love you love you love you
Praise the Lord lovely song ..may the Lord bless this wonderful brothers soul ..All he did for peoples rights to.b respected ..May u lead us all home to our home in heaven ..we love u lord
I watched this live on MSNBC & CNN, as my tears dropped, I will remember John Lewis for many things, but most importantly for "Good Trouble" and him embracing Black Lives Matter. Sing Sister Holliday!
Now that's wailing. I felt that down deep. Someone need to weep, wail, and mourn when a good pioneer for justice leaves this planet. Like his predecessor Martin L. King, he will be well missed. Hope he is able to join Martin and imminate the spirit of peaceful powerful leadership to our youth. Well done Jennifer.
I recorded the funeral of Rep. John Lewis because I knew Barack Obama was delivering the eulogy & anytime I get to hear him speak is a pleasure. What I didn't know was Jennifer Holliday was singing along with Bishop Marvin Winans & Bebe Winans. And, the piano / organ players were equally entertaining. What an absolute delight this was for all involved!!!
Jennifer Holliday has a whole choir in her vocal chords.
One of the greatest singers alive, we need to love on our legends while they are alive. I love her voice, she can sang chile!!
You know it!❤

Thank you for taking us to church Ms. Halliday. And, whoever that was on the piano and organ. WOW! There are no words. A VERY fitting tribute.
Yes. I want to know who that was on the piano.

It's amazing Mahalia Jackson sang this song at Dr. King's funeral...
RIP Bro John Lewis. A man of grace & gratitude! We will carry the torch!
