THIS was the choir era! There was no competition. ONLY anointing! O'landa Draper brought skill AND anointing to a HIGH level! He was WELL before his time, however the impact made in gospel choral music lives on. A gospel choir genius!

[@godschild2012ful]

When people really sang and there was not competition of voices. There was deliverance

Love this song it brings tears of joy to my eyes. Enjoy seeing God's ppl praising and worshipping him

[@keithford8019]

Wow, this brings back memories of being in Memphis at the COGIC Convocation in November. There would be several services taking place on late Friday and Saturday nights after the main service at the Cook Convention Center. Of course, Olanda Draper's musical would be one of them.....Interesting how time changes.

[@lyndabanks9460]

I heard the voice of Jesus say come unto me and rest
