      Yes, those double hand claps were on point. But the drummer was doing his thing too.

      We ❤ Jessie Dixon.
      We first saw him about 9 years
      ago with The Gaithers. He sang
      Touch me, LORD JESUS
      and we became fans immediately.
      Goodness! Gracious me!
      That was HOLY GHOST and Fire 🔥

    I got the double cd Gospel album
    called Amazing Grace
    by Elvis. That's the first time I ever
    heard this hymn. I wonder if Elvis
    also got it from here. I know that
    he loves Southern Gospel 💐
