  • *Rest In Peace, Bishop Walter Hawkins* Bishop Walter Hawkins ministers with "Marvelous," one of his best-known songs, at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC on April 24, 2010. This concert was a part of the "Joyful Sounds: Gospel Across America" celebration hosted by the Kennedy Center and organized by Rev. Nolan Williams.
    Bishop Hawkins is backed by one of his best friends, Richard Smallwood. He opens up the selection with a personal testimony about how he'd been battling Pancreatic Cancer for the past 2 years, and how his love for God never wavered.
    The second half of the concert was devoted solely to the music ministry of Bishop Hawkins. The National Symphony Orchestra and choir are conducted by Stanley Thurston.
    Bishop Hawkins passed away on the evening of July 11, 2010, and THIS video was from his last public performance. This is truly HISTORY!

    All I can say is that I wept when I saw this the other day. I watched it with my wife and we both wept. For Walter to give his all one last time in the condition he was in was a great testament to the power of God working in his life. God has truly blessed us through the life of Bishop Walter Hawkins. Thank you so much for this post, and may God bless you.

    The chain of pain is now broken that had him bound and he is forever in our hearts and minds. To all who loved him so, weeping may endure for the nite, but JOY COMETH! His precious life was only a loan and the Owner has received him unto Himself. Celebrate his life and know now he is painlessly in the future!

    Thank you for posting this again. There is nothing in this video but the pure fulfillment of God's Word. 2 Cor. 12:9 says "..my strength is made perfect in weakness." The Power of God is so apparent in this "Last" public ministry of song and the Glory of God was in that place and with us a we watch this.
    Again, thank you for re-posting.

    Thank you for posting this video. It's a beautiful tribute to a dynamic human being. We had the pleasure of meeting Bishop Hawkins many years ago. He was a wonderful Christian and a loving human being. My family grew up listening to this wonderful man of God. The world has truly lost a giant. Someday we'll meet again Bishop. Rest in Peace. I love you.

    Thank you sir for giving voice and saying what we who were not would have liked to have said with you. He will always be remembered for his dedication to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, his excellence, his gifts, and his love for everyone. I am even more encouraged now than ever by his example and courage. He truly used what God gave him.

    This is incredible, I first met him in Monterey in 1966 I was 19 then and he was 17, Bishop Reems was holding a revival and he came along to accompany her on the organ...never knew that this man would one day become a household name among the evangelicals.....

    I still can't come to terms of believing that this precious jewel is no longer with us. I've never been in shock like this since the death of my own sister. I'm nobody special. Just a fan of The whole Hawkins legacy. I'm struggling. God be with all of us right now. especially the Hawkins Family and Love Center Church.

    I Love Bishop Hawkins songs. There was a long time that I didn't hear from any of the Gospel greats. But Those that passed and went on with Christ. Will be remembered in there songs every time we hear them. God gave us great song writers and singers. Bishop Hawkins is in my top 5. Along side the wonder twins Rev. James Moore and Frank Williams, Rev. Timothy Wright and Bishop Winans.. enough said

    I taped the "Marvelous" video from Gospel Videos on cable a few years ago. They played it almost every other show and I know I must have at least 4 VHS tapes with Bishop Hawkins singing this with the Love Center Choir. I made sure I kept all of them too-and I watched that video every week. A few years ago I made a mistake and bought "The Mississippi Mass Choir" DVD and decided to keep it. When I pslayed it, I noticed Bishop Hawkins singing on a few of the selections....Yes, I jumped for joy

    @Tiyenuri Unfortunately, there is no DVD for this performance. This was one of the closing events for the week-long celebration of Gospel music.

It is still hard to believe that when I come home I won't be greeted by your smile and that timeless question "Which one are you?" I know my brother (twin) feels the same. You journey was complete and it was time for you to go home. Rest now my mentor,Pastor, spiritual father and friend. I Love you Walter L Hawkins

But I know that he is not suffering anymore and that he is resting in the arms of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Now I can listen to "I'm Going Away" and know that he is with our Lord. Thank you Bishop Hawkins for all of the wonderful, anointed music you have left us. You will never be forgotten as long as there is gospel music. RIP!!
