"Holy Spirit, you are welcome here. Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere. Your Glory GOD is what our hearts long for... to be overcome by your presence LORD !!!!" it would be sooo cool if they started to react to some of the beautiful gospel songs once in a while. Would help them thru tough times too. just sayin'
This song got my emotions everywhere brings back memories of my mom and dad. Grew up in the church a preachers kid I haven’t heard this song since my parents were alive. I love you mom and dad. I miss u guys so much as I am sitting here crying like a baby. Thank you guys for this. I love you two
@IENetworkTV first I like to say I'm sorry for your loss. I understand exactly what you mean. My mom passed just 2 months ago. Thank God we still have my father but I know exactly how you're feeling. May God bless you and help you get through the pain that you're feeling right now 🙏🏾
My grandmother loved "The Commodores" and this song. When she passed away a week before Christmas in 2021, I had to pick out songs for the service and visitation hour. I chose this one for family and friend visitation hour at the funeral home, and as it played, a slide show of her through the years with family and friends played on-screen for us to see. I've lost my mom, all four grandparents, my favorite uncle, one of my favorite aunts, and Christmas can be tough, along with any other day when it comes to my my mom. She was my absolute best friend. I was blessed to have such loving elders, and I miss them all. 😢❤
i remember singing this at my summer camp back when i was a kid at a camp for young blind and visually impaired children at our Sunday chapel service so much love
I just recommended, Oh Happy Day, by The Edwin Hawkins Singers, on another one of your reactions to a religious-themed song. So this is the perfect place to recommend it again. It was a surprise hit in the mid 1960s across America, Canada and Europe. You both grew up in the church, so I’m sure you’ll dig it.
I went to a all boys catholic high school in the inner city of Detroit and this was played every day in morning prayer. So glad you guys got to listen to this
When this album came out my Mom bought the 8-track & we listened to it every Sunday morning on our way to First Missionary Baptist Church. This song always get me in the Spirit.
Imagine hearing this when it first came out on the radio and you turn the volume way up. I remember choirs immediately started singing this. My sister sang this and I still love to hear her sing it today. One of my favorites.
I disagree. The bible is fiction. There's no way Israel conquered Caanan without taking any casualties on their side. That would be like Hitler conquering Europe without firing a single shot. Never happened.
"Jesus Is Love" was released in 1980. Lionel Richie wrote it, and star arranger James Anthony Carmichael brought in a Gospel choir and composed their vocal arrangement. Even though the song was on a secular album, it became an R&B hit, and I've heard it performed at my church and many others. "Father, help Your children" indeed. ✝☀
Just beautiful, makes u get lost for a moment in flight. Amazing song, sound that sooths the heart. Thanx so much, take care, Praying all is well. Praying for strength and Blessings of Peace for u all.
Amen Zephaniah 3:17 The Lord your God is in the midst of you, a Mighty One, a Savior [Who saves]! He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest [in silent satisfaction] and in His love He will be silent and make no mention [of past sins, or even recall them]; He will exult over you with singing Alot of us out here praying for your family. Love you guys. You bring so much joy to my life and so many others
Fam, there is soooo much untapped music you haven't tapped into. This is a great way to start the gospel genre. There are so many great gospel artists with super amazing voices that need to be heard. Also, the smooth jazz genre is virtually untapped in this channel However, to keep this momentum going with mainstream artists singing gospel/church music, check out Howard Hewitt's "Say Amen". Howard was the lead for Shalamar, whom you've reacted. Banger!!
Hebrew has no vowels. The translators filled in the blanks with guesses. For all we know, the original could say, "Jesus is lard." Maybe he was overweight or something. 🤣
@@platterjockeyYou believe Jesus walked the earth, but you are bordering on athiesm, can I ask what account brought you to believe Jesus walked the earth but left you teetering on the edge of athiesm ?.
@@TARZANswings Sure! The fact that humans are evil, and no faith in a deity will end it. There is no evidence of a deity or a savior, and no evidence of an afterlife. Jesus walked the earth, but he was not created by immaculate conception. That goes against the laws of nature. And, if mary was a virgin, she was artificially inseminated. Ah, but Jesus had siblings. Were they older or younger, and did Mary breed them? Until these answers, and many more can be scientifically answered, i'll continue to be skeptical. I need scientific evidence, not belief.
Hey guys, I know you've done a lot of songs by Lionel Richie but here's one that you haven't done yet, " Sweet Love." Check it out the next time, I believe he sang it when he was with the Commodores.
Goodness Gracious this song is very emotional for me.....Goodness!!! Love the reaction guys!!! Love Love the song!!! And I adore the Commodores!!! An d in times of hardships and troubles this song especially has meaning among African Americans where Gospel music originated. Good jobs guys!!!
This classic came out during an interesting time. Gospel although not mainstream was starting to get recognition. The Winans had just recorded their first album and “Love Alive” by Walter Hawkins had brought new energy to “Church Music”. Lionel Ritchie’s piano intro gives me chills🎼🎹👏🏾
If you loved the original version, which this is, you need to find an hear the live version. It will definitely fill you with the Holy Spirit. This is my all time favorite song by the Commodores. I've been a born again Christian for over 50 years. This banger hits home every time I hear it. My favorite part is "I just wanna follow your star. Wherever it leads. And I don't mind Lord. I hope you don't mind. I wanna walk with you. Talk with you. Do all the things, You want me to do. Cause I know that Jesus" that brings a tear to my eye, every time I sing it. Thanks for the selection and the reaction.
One of my favorite Commodore songs. Thank you, guys, for reacting to this. I KNOW in my heart that someone needed to hear this today. I felt that there was someone out there that was feeling down and what a great message to send them. It was no accident that this was the one chosen for today. Another song I would love to hear you react to is "Say Amen" by Howard Hewitt. I know you will enjoy that one as well. It was played on the radio a lot back in the day as this one was.
Before starting his music career, Lionel Richie was planning to be a preacher. But he later changed his mind about that. Little Richard & Al Green are ordained ministers. For awhile, both left secular music to exclusively release gospel albums (Al for a longer period of time), but later started to perform their old stuff.
Never heard this, even though i'm 61 yo non-believing atheist, still enjoyed. Can't go wrong with Lionel Ritchie,such a talent. Be well my friends.✌️PS more Supertramp please
How did you know about it? It was never a hit. It bombed on the charts. I knew about it through RUclips a while back but I had never heard it on the radio, and I didn't even know it was a 45.
@@magneto7930 Actually in the Philly area, it most certainly was played on the radio a lot. I believe the year was in the 70s if I remember right. You Tube was not around back then. Even today I hear it once in awhile on the radio.
Jesus IS LOVE AND HE IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.PRAISE HIM AND THANK HIM FOR THE SACRIFICE OF HIS LIFE FOR US,HE DID NOT HAVE TO AND IF THAT IS NOT LOVE THEN WHAT WAS IT.THANK YOU LORD JESUS.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
One of the best R&B groups of the 70s I got an opportunity to see them three times in person oh my goodness… So talented, what a legacy they’ve left us. Thank you for playing their music.💙💙👏👏👏👏

The perfect song to end a Sunday evening!!

Ive never heard this song, but as soon as I saw the title I had to tune in. Jesus is True Love! Such a lovely song.
I've never heard this before, what a GREAT song. Jesus really is LOVE. Amen
Being a born again Christian since 1977 I love it.
July of 2000 here
December 2nd 1987 Jesus saved my Soul ❤
March 10th 1976, most important day of my life. ❤
Holy Holy Holy
My mom got it right the first time. I don't need to be born again.
THIS is so special. Had no idea they did this song? PLEASE do more praise, worship, Gospel reactions. Jesus is King.

😱 Can’t believe someone is reacting to this song! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🥰🥰🥰🥰
You are Appreciated & Blessed for playing This Song, You Guys & Fam! Old Time Gospel! God Bless You Guys! :)
My dad would play this so many times. I'd sing it with him as a little girl. Such a beautiful song and beautiful memories.❤
i remember singing this at my summer camp back when i was a kid at a camp for young blind and visually impaired children at our Sunday chapel service so much love
Never heard this one, but it is all true about Jesus. He won't let you down.
Wanna bet?

Show me on this doll where the priest touched you...🤣
Praise Christ. The name above all names.
Amen
Love this song. If you're black and of a certain age, you remember this song being played every day as a sign off for the Donnie Simpson show.
Like Kamela?😅
So I have to be black to remember this song?
@JackHunter-n6t Nope. It just got a lot of play in Black households. The comment seems pretty straightforward to me. 🤷♀️
I'm white of a certain age and remember this song being played everyday as a sign off for Donnie Simpson show.
I completely agree with you and came here to say the same thing
The Love that heals all
Lionel sung this at Michael's memorial service, beautiful
When this album came out my Mom bought the 8-track & we listened to it every Sunday morning on our way to First Missionary Baptist Church. This song always get me in the Spirit.
Can’t argue with the truth. This is absolutely beautiful!🤩
Thank you for the spiritual lift. It was greatly needed. Hugs to your family.
Jay, Amber and family, this song is my prayer for you all!
Awesome song. So good and so true, He will never reject you, people do that to Him sadly. He loves us more than we can ever know.

Ok.. when I wake up in the middle of the night and cannnot get back to sleep… I will be singing this one…🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
"... Name above all names..." at the which every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God!
“Jesus is Lord” is not just a saying. It is the truth.

I have the original LP! Anderson, from Rio, Brazil! And Jesus is my savior and lord!
All we listened to was Gospel music growing up. This song was in HEAVY rotation on Gospel radio. I didn’t know it was the Commodores until today 🤯
Wow!!! Such a great song of truth! I grew up with the Commodores BUT nevery heard this song! Thank you for sharing!

Lionel also sang this at Michael Jackson funeral

Heard this song on the radio before school every morning ❤️
Love this song. Thank you I needed to hear this.
I remember my first time seeing the Commodores in concert. They were great performers and naturally, they ended their show with this track.
Jesus is love! He deserves our time and our love, too.
Underrated Commodores hit!
This song will definitely take you there! Lionel Richie can sing so beautifully about love. One of my favorites is “Love Oh Love”.
?
The Commodores are ALWAYS wonderful! Beautiful song!
Absolute classic. Church.
I'm 67 and love Lionel Richey but have never heard this before. Love it!
