      @@Jevezy Actually they don't come from different worlds. Aretha started in her father's church and released many gospel albums and in every concert she ever did at the end of the concert she'd take it back to church. Aretha did sing secular music/soul, but so did a lot of people. What separated her then as it does to this day is that she never left her religion behind. Aretha was always signing to the choir.

    I have nothing but the greatest respect for Shirley Caesar, she open the door and brought gospel songs to the masses. Right behind her and following in her footsteps with her God blessed power house voice is Yolanda Adams. I listened to her rendition of this Song, and it floored me, I got on my knees and prayed for Shirley, Yolanda, everyone here on this comment board and lastly for myself so that I can face the great obstacles I have to overcome. Thank you Jesus!

    The spirit of Satan moves in the dark. This song like many others is why people think that they can catch the Holy Ghost based on feelings. You can’t catch God. Are you moving with the spirit of darkness or have been moved by the Spirit of God to go where He tells you to go? God can not be mocked. This is blasphemy but they are only mocking themselves. When the world enjoys a song you know it’s not about Jesus and the Holy Spirit. And this is not. This is the spirit and worship of dance and feelings while telling you to dance IN THE DARK. Only wickedness is done in the dark but will be revealed by the light. Believe in the Son Jesus that He died for your sins on the cross and was raised from the dead on the third day to be at the right hand of God the Father. So that you can have your sins washed away by your belief in Jesus and can be a new creation in Him practicing righteousness while walking in righteousness and communion with God.
