you can feel the spirit of GOD when Aretha sings gospel. I would really love to hear and see Aretha start a ministry. Because the gospel is embedded deep within her soul.
This performance reminds me of how some of Mahalia Jackson's classic live performances are. Just her on stage, a mike, and piano accompaniment in the background.
Queen Aretha you reign over everything Gospel! You are always in our hearts & souls! God's blessings of Healing, Peace & Most of All LOVE!!! Blessed Assurance
It’s a personal testimony n relationship with the Lord when Aretha sang up @1:03 saying this my story Oh Lord this my song keeping it personal this is somebody tht knows Him all too well it’s in her soul bless her God.RIP Aretha take it rest
This my story I have blessed assurance of eternal life and reconciliation with God the father because of Jesus Christ's redemptive work, birth, death, resurrection and ascension to heaven.
Whoever that is that doesnt know the sound of one of the greatest voices of all times regardless of "what size she is" has no idea about music at all!! Stevie Wonder could figure that one out!!! Her voice is timeless!!!!! Its Aretha all day!
in about 50 more years, the modern hymns as you call them will be considered old time gospel...and the same will be said by someone else...history repeats itself over and over again.
That’s a lie she did her best till the day she died. I hope you understand that this song is “Blessed Assurance”. Nothing crazy. A simple song. Aretha did great and knew what she was doing. A masterful vocalist. She’s giving honor to her lord and savior. Amen! 👑
THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME!:)

I think this is the first time I've cried listening to this song. Love you, Aretha. May God richly bless you.
Wow! I just loved her voice during this time period, just the right mix of clarity and a touch of smoke in her tone.
its always good to find performances from 1980-83 ..they are hard to find. jennie on the jeffersons back around 81 had this same hair do lol
This is one of my favorite gospel numbers.
The undisputed queen of gospel/soul!
I just love these oldies

Truly this my story and my song because I have the blessed assurance that Jesus is mind and I have eternal life.

Old beautiful memories
Not even religious at all but this is the song we sang at my grandfathers funeral and always makes me sad, but Aretha singing it makes it better
Thank u Lord

Ree's voice may not be in its prime but she still adds an undoubtable texure to a song with her gospel drenced vocals
It’s a personal testimony n relationship with the Lord when Aretha sang up @1:03 saying this my story Oh Lord this my song keeping it personal this is somebody tht knows Him all too well it’s in her soul bless her God.RIP Aretha take it rest

Try Marion Williams (one of Aretha-and everybody else's prime gsopel idols) version on Atlantic--its majestic too!
REE L0VES TO COVER Ms Marion Williams.
I agree
It's definitely Ree
Rip
For a great read check out A Step Into Deliverance by toni pugh. It's a real page-turner!
@janthony119 Trust me...it's Aretha.
really
@janthony119 WHAT???
@nettieheart smh
She didnt bring it hard. She never went really hard on a song after the mid 70's.
CLEOPATRA JONES I think she put it all on the alter with Amazing Grace.
@@valjolly7469 that was early 70's so I don't understand your statement.
CLEOPATRA JONES I see the concept of restraint went over your head.
