not sure who sings it... but it's slow and I feel it's an annointed song that is perfect for most alter calls

To be perfectly honest... I had never heard a recording of the song.  I was listening to a choir from a local church that was being played on one of our few gospel stations (sad that they are only AM)  They sang that song and I was touched... it reminded me of the church I was reborn in.  We would do that song, I could never sing with it due to the emotions that would be stirred up.  Anywho... the choir sang that song and there was at least 2 verses.  My old church we only sang the chorus during alter call.

Praise Him!!

This is from Sister T's website. How many of us remember when and where we first received him. Glory, Glory Hallejuah!!  Think of what he delivered you from, how he saved and turned your life around, how you don't do the things you use to do, don't go the places you use to, because of His Holiness, His Righteousness, His Majesty, His Truth and Faithfulness of his Word, His Graciousness for allowing us to be partakers of this cup and for that I thank Jesus,  Glory, Glory, Glory, Glory, To your Holy and Precious Name!!!

Thank you soooooo much.  I knew you saints would come through.  

Another good alter song, there are so many versions is:

If you can use anything Lord you can use me

That's another song that is annointed and gets down in your spirit.

Thanks again and stay Blessed
