Wow Wow wow awesome video and voice. This song should be ringing through this nation so to remind us that The Creator is our answer to this trouble world. Halleluyah. Keep singing.
TODAY is the Presidential election day. There is no better time to turn to God for the hope of our nation and our families. He is the author and finisher of our faith.
Wow reading this comment 10 days before another presidential Election Day. How we need a radical revival in this country. It’s so far downward from it was a few years ago and it was pretty bad then. Yet we know with God all things are possible.❤️🇺🇸🙏🏼🇺🇸❤
WOW. I grew up on The Imperials in the 70's and 80's, and their original version of this song is one of my favorite songs of all time. This version is spectacular, and honors both the original version and the Scripture on which its based extremely well. God bless you gentlemen!!
Then you will have been appalled by the song then and you will know how it is a travesty of the Biblical text which was debunked decades ago. If anything, it reflects all that the prophets rail against Judah-Israel as paying lip service to YHWH (like most of USA and UK at Christmas nowadays) while exploiting and murdering the poor and going off to alternative temples and shrines for their real heart and gut worship. It is more like the sin of Jeroboam as it confuses state and cult
Based on 2nd Chronicles 7:14, this beautiful tune by Terry Blackwood and @TheImperials is the advice and reminder we need in these troubled times. God's promises are true. He is always faithful and He never fails!
Reading this on the National Day of Prayer 5/6/21. No praying at the White House this year. Praying for all the politicians to get wisdom and integrity from God. America needs this now!
This content is what our churches in America need to hear, these verses are directed towards believers. The church in America has lost it's way, what with "I'm okay,Your okay" philosophy and the ordination of homosexual pastors and bishops. We, as Christ followers need to repent, humble ourselves, and fall on our faces in prayer begging for forgiveness! We, the church, have let God and our country down! Let us repent, beg for forgiveness, and go spread the Good News of the GOSPEL!!!!!!!
I am so glad I found this because I have been hearing it so often on the AFA/AFR radio station in our local area and it NEVER ceases to put tears into my eyes! My heart hurts for our nation because we have turned so far from the Lord. This song is so beautiful and I am passing it around to others. Thank you for posting this! God bless!
Absolutely LOVE it!!! What an awesome re-recording of a true classic song.....I pray that America listens! I pray America responds! May God "heal our land!"
Thank you so very much, Terry for posting this great call to prayer. This is so important for my nation of Canada to hear this call to return to the Lord. I have loved your music for so many years. Many blessings on you!
Our nation is struggling now because we did NOT humble ourselves before God. It's not too late but this must turn around very soon. Keep praying and tell your Christian friends. Watch the video and read and heed 2 Chron 7:14.
Yes, David's Psalm was the one Jim Murray sang. Invocation - right :). Word's I believe were, "For those whose eyes would sleep. Render them in perfect peace". Man, it's been long enough I probably cobbled those lyrics :). But did love all the music the Imperials recorded but was partial to when you "Terry" and Sherman were with the group. Certainly was an anointing on you all. So glad you rerecorded "If My People". Beautiful man!
More attention needs to be paid to the words, ". . . and TURN from . . . ." That's the only way He will hear our prayers. Prayers by themselves are empty.
"And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice. If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually." (2 Chronicles 7, KJV)
Thank you for this song. I am forwarding the link to it! There is still hope for our "Home of the Free and Land of the Brave; One nation under God!" Your sister in Christ, Judy
Thank You Lord Jesus~ always just right, even when we are just wrong....forgive us our trespasses Lord, as we forgive those who trespass against us. #Ephesians5:11
"And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice. If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually." (2 Chronicles 7, KJV)
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS. NOW MORE THAN EVER OUR COUNTRY NEEDS THIS MESSAGE! MY PRAYER IS THAT GOD’S PEOPLE WILL HEED IT BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!! Time for the CHURCH to wake up and TURN YWHOLE HEARTEDLY BACK TO GOD!!!
I remembered this song as a child but never knew who sang it. So grateful that I finally found it after all these years. This is my favorite scripture 2 Chronicles 7:14 and is the truth especially in these end times "2022"
Love it Terry. Great group of guys w/you. Great blend. Of course you could blend harmony with a bullfrog, but I won't hold that against you. Love and blessings bro.
Wonderful version of one of the great classics of Gospel music. Our church's choir did the entire Jimmie and Carol Owens album that this song is from back in 1985, and it was a powerful experience. -Great job guys!
Awesome song and video Terry. Wow!!! It was a pleasure meeting you last night at Raffertys in my hometown of Clarksville. It was great talking to you and your inspiration. You're absolutely right. We must humble ourselves. I appreciate your kind words and wish you the best in everything you do. Take care, Earl Arnold. Merry Christmas to you and your family. P. S. Your voice is better than ever. God Bless
I first heard this song at 8 years old. It became my favorite. It hasn't changed. It's still my favorite And it caused it to be my favorite scripture as well. I'm in my 50's now. This song and the scripture still hold up! Truly annointed! Thank you for posting this beautiful Important song, and memory! I've never forgotten.
Wow, I can' t stop the tears in my eyes as I listened to this perfect rendition of this song. Is there an original minus one produced by Terry Blackwood and the Imperials for the rendition of this song?
One of my favorite songs growing up - the records I had from the Imperials were played over and over. Glad to find this and be able to add it to my worship playlist!
Very Keaggyesk guitar at the end, and also the resolution chord. National Day of Prayer is always the first Thursday of May. Please join in with a group participating in it near where you live!
beautiful and much needed verse. at first it bothered me that I couldn't remember where I'd heard that chord progression before. It's "Walk Away Rene"- I guess it changes enough to avoid copyright problems. good song though.
Wow Wow wow awesome video and voice.
This song should be ringing through this nation so to remind us that The Creator is our answer to this trouble world.
Halleluyah.
Keep singing.
Thanks so much! What a blessing! The words of the Lord the same today, yesterday, and forever! God Bless
Such beautiful voices and men. "Thank you for the music" and for speaking the truth that this nation needs to hear.
Amen, it is more evident now than ever
TODAY is the Presidential election day. There is no better time to turn to God for the hope of our nation and our families. He is the author and finisher of our faith.
Amennnnn! Amennnn! Amen

We desperately need to listen to the message of this song today. America is so messed up.
This is definitely what America needs to hear.
Even more so today - 2024
This is the answer to the state that the world is in.

Thank you so very much, Terry for posting this great call to prayer. This is so important for my nation of Canada to hear this call to return to the Lord. I have loved your music for so many years. Many blessings on you!
As a fellow Canadian, I absolutely agree! This nation has drifted so so far😢
테리블랙우드 성가를 유투브를 통해 알게됐는데 넘 은혜스러워서 그 찬양에 푹 빠져 산답니다 cd를 구입하고싶은데 방법을 모르네요~~늘 건강하시고 찬양으로 전세계에 복음을 많이많이 전해주세요 감사합니다

I love this type of music.
Awesome job with this old Jimmy Owens song! Love it!
I really like this version, especially the harmony and electric guitar at the end. (2:54) I could listen to that outro forever. :-)
Great Terry & Co!
This song melts my heart for our God and would love to hear this sung at our Chruch at Grace ChurchSTL. in Maryland Heights, MO
Absolutely great !!! and a true message !
Glory Hallelujah!!!

For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually." (2 Chronicles 7, KJV)
Beautiful guys! Blessings Terry! I have been a fan of yours since the beginning!

Beautiful, lyrics based on one of my favourite Bible promises
Amen such a great song, mix of modern and classic hymn.
God bless our America
"And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;

For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually." (2 Chronicles 7, KJV)
Let’s pray!

I love this song
I have been listening to this song since the beginning of the pandemic. It is really helping us Christians!
Wow, I haven't heard this song in 25 years. I didn't know the Imperials had done it.
Praise God…. Luv the song so much! 👍
Fantastic, sharing :)
Wow, I can' t stop the tears in my eyes as I listened to this perfect rendition of this song. Is there an original minus one produced by Terry Blackwood and the Imperials for the rendition of this song?
Listening in 2020. We need this now more than ever.
Awesome!
Yes!!! It’s Time to Everyone Go Back to JESUS and HIS Mercy, as SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Thank You for post this Wonderful song.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is beautiful and so true...start with me God!
One of my favorite songs growing up - the records I had from the Imperials were played over and over. Glad to find this and be able to add it to my worship playlist!
Gives me goosebumps… so touching.. tears of joy 💧
This gave me chills and tears...America...please listen to the message in this song!
YHWH is not sending drought, locusts, and pestilence except as a consequence of the global warming that so many USA people deny
I’m praying.
Thank you for posting this song, Buddy. I hope that many people will take it to heart and do what it says.
COVID-19 is a plague that (vs 13) that we could respond to with this strategy in vs 14 of 2 Chronicles.
Very Keaggyesk guitar at the end, and also the resolution chord. National Day of Prayer is always the first Thursday of May. Please join in with a group participating in it near where you live!
EricJamesHanson That is Brent Mason on guitar. Probably the premier guitarist in Nashville.
thank you for letting me know...AND we would love to host you guys for a concert sometime here in Maine!
AMEN
Needed at moments like this. Covid 19. God help us. Amen
Absolutely 😮😊❤
beautiful and much needed verse. at first it bothered me that I couldn't remember where I'd heard that chord progression before. It's "Walk Away Rene"- I guess it changes enough to avoid copyright problems. good song though.
Beautiful Church!!
Ghastly church
