    What Elvis did during his last few hours on earth: went to the dentist; played racquetball; sat at the piano and sang "Sweet, Sweet, Spirit" and "Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain"; went to his room and prepared for bed; read the morning papers; went to the bathroom, taking with him a book on the Shroud of Turin, called "The Scientific Search for the Face of Jesus"; he never left the room alive. It appears he was thinking of his Lord right to his last moment.

    Just look at his face when he listens to the group singing the solo part, he has such a priceless look, such a moving, touching expression. I know Elvis believed in God, and I know where he is right now, he is in God's Kingdom. He gave us so much joy through his music especially his gospel, and he continues to do so.

    There is not a doubt that Elvis went to heaven 34 years ago today in my mind.. Elvis loved the Lord. He was not perfect and he knew that, but he knew the Lord Jesus and loved Him. All Elvis ever wanted to do was to sing Gospel. He brought God's music to so many people and ministered to them as well.

    do you see how time changed??? Elvis didnt feel ashamed to show his love to the Lord .. in his concerts .. in front of thousands .. and other millions listened and watched movies and videos .. who would do that now ???? Elvis if you can hear me, thank you!! and I love you so much ..

    You know, what's amazing to me is sometimes us Christians are bashful, shy, afraid to share our beliefs with others or 2-3 of our friends... Imagine sharing the Gospel with a stadium full of people who came for a secular concert :/
    What an example, respect you Elvis.

    Elvis wanted to do a Christian Tour only,, someone said to him people would not show up. I think he would of packed all the places with Gospel music..

    People always forget that Elvis grew up in church and did several gospel albums. No matter ones lifestyle your heart still longs for their peace that comes/came from singing those gospel tunes and really getting back in touch with God. I love his expressions as he's listening to them. Long live the King of the king.

  • @redraven24
    @redraven24 8 років тому +22

    The way he just stands there and closes his eyes when they sing...makes me weep. I don't pretend to know whether his heart was given to Christ before his death, but I have hoped so. For someone who so desperately loved to hear and sing Gospel like he did, I hope. He honoured the place where God brought him out of by singing Gospel in concerts. I respect that about him greatly.

    @missingdixie 14 років тому

    Talent is a blessing. Elvis had more talent in his little finger than any performer today. Don't judge him unless you're willing to be judged by the same measure. Of course, he loved the Lord.

    Trivia. Elvis won only one Emmy. Not for what made him famous, but for a gospel album.

  • @daisykneale
    @daisykneale 17 років тому

    This song testifies how much Elvis loved his fans - he wanted so much the fans to experience the "sweet, sweet spirit" that he felt. He was not preacher and he didn't impose his religious belief on his fans but in his special way, he had certainly helped people to believe in God and Jesus Christ. I guess that's one of the reasons his fans seem to have undying love for him - it's his love and kind feelings he had for his fans and his fellowmen that his fans cannot forget.

  • @knownonlytohim
    @knownonlytohim 16 років тому

    How glad we are to make this sweet spirit lead us through our life if we let him do this and believe in Jesus and in what He had said and done! When He left this world He gave us His spirit for help, advice and support, and He still does! This is one part of the Good Gospel News. Thanks to Elvis for letting perform The Stamps and thank you for sharing!

    Elvis is The King of Music. No other singer comes anywhere close to him. He is the only singer able to sing in different styles of music, including pop,gospel, rock, country and etc. If it was not for Elvis, singers and bands like Michael Jackson, Beatles and others would not have existed. Look what happened to the beatles. Eventhough they couldn't sing because of Elvis era they became famous

  • @lilyatheg
    @lilyatheg 15 років тому

    I'm totally with you. This celebrity worship is blinding everyone on here. It doesn't matter if you grew up in church or sing gospel music: that's not what makes a person saved or a candidate for heaven. I'm surprised how many people who claim to be Christian don't realize that.

  • @ukgolfa

    I was there that night in 1972. But I did not see him perform as I was assigned to traffic control outside the arena. I was a police officer for the Honolulu PD. The show was a benefit and officers that night had volunteered to work without pay. Fifteen years earlier I did see him perform at Conroy Bowl in Schofield Barracks. Paid one dollar for the ticket for another of his benefit shows.

    Elvis could have converted the world with his influence and I believe he really wanted to be a true christian. He just could not find the strength to let go of the world and the drugs. Awsome talent and vocals though. I was alive when he was still alive but too young to realize who he really was.

    Those special moments in the life of Elvis did not disclose on television. You know why? because it exalts the name of the Lord the tremendous all-powerful God that Elvis is bent to worship in their moment of reflection and submission. Oh this video shows how Elvis acknowledged this. All the glory belongs to this wonderful God! Income is He! Mírian Rangel - V.Velha/ES/Brasil

    We don't express our love for Lord God by feelings or by speaking about Him,only, instead, We express our love for God by serving Him and obeying Him. No matter how deep we claim to love God, if we don't serve or obey Him, we make ourselves liers and we don't walk in thrut.

    Esses momentos especiais na vida de Elvis não se divulga na televisão. Sabe por que? porque exalta o nome tremendo do Senhor o Deus todo-Poderoso que Elvis se encurvava para adorar no seu momento de reflexão e submissão. Ai neste vídeo mostra o quanto Elvis reconhecia isto. Toda a glória pertence a este Deus maravilhoso! Renda-se a Ele também!

Jesus gave him to us and people abused him for profit and Jesus took him away. Thank you Jesus for giving him peace.
