Amen, Amen to the hymns and selections of yesterday, for they tell a personal story of one's spiritual relationship to God. Keep them alive. I remember my mother singing I Trust in God and He Touched Me My father's favorite hymn was Whispering Hope. Someof my favorites: It Is Well,( When Peace Like A River) Deep River, The Blood That Jesus Shed for Me, Leave It There.I'm touched spiritually just writing about this. PRAISE GOD. Rachel Naomi Dowling McD. Charleston, SC
Today's church need to go back to the old traditional hymns... These are the kind of songs that brought my grandparent's and parent's through the difficult times they face in those days. Keep singing Pastor Dewey...
AMEN!!!!!!! IM EXTREMELY HAPPY TO BE A SOLDIER IN GODS GLORIOUS ARMY!!!!!!! MAY ALL THE GLORY AND PRAISE GO TO MY HEAVENLY FATHER AND MY LORD AND SAVIOR! 🙏🏾❤️🙌🏾
Just look at the people of God, now if you played Beyonce and Jay Z or My nigga my help just to name a few of these worldly catchy beats the people would go crazy. But a man of God sings it and there's this glare as if the people are under a spell of sleep and they don't know what to do. Oughta make a marchin holding hands and sing this song up and the house of God because it's needed in these evil fallen times. We have to fight all though we have to cry. Cry but keep fighting. Pastor D. where ever u are I want to thank you for singing this song. My heart and soul is touched deeply. Glory to God. OLD SCHOOL!! Remembering the Baptist Church that marched down the aisles. Yep this a slap song, 'WAKE UP!!"
old school is back we sang that when I was a young girl in church we went some time three time on Sunday and we love going to church. oh Lord Rev.Dewey Smith I love his singing.
thank you for this song in my spirit today because this was one of my mother's favorite when I say favorite one of her favourites to sing to us when she went blind when she lost her legs and I'm I'm CRYIN HAPPY TEARS 😭 RT Now .cause that's what she would want me to be doing THANK U.. ALL GLORY TO GOD✓✓✓
I want to thank the person who posted this classic song. I remembered this song like it was yesterday. I have nothig against the gospel music of today, but the songs of yesterday just have more meat in them. Someone once said, " You can say a lot and say nothing, but you can say little and say a lot. In that is how I feel about the songs in the pass. They had few words, but a whole lot of meaning. Amen Amen and Amen.
It gets hard sometimes but we got to hold it up. Just like Jesus said in John 3-16 dispite all you go Thur in life Christ have overcome this world He died for us let hold it up high that blood stain banner Thank You Father in Heaven
I remember this song! Glad I found it. My parents worked for Bro. A.A. Allen and my Mom was in Gene Martin's choir at Miracle Valley, Arizona. Good foundation instilled in me...forever! Not too many churches like this anymore, unfortunately.
Love this old gospel song. So sad I don't hear the children singing it anymore in the state of the Church today. But I thank God Pastor Smith Jr. is still singing them all. It encourages my soul so much. It's true especially now in these end times. We are soldiers fighting in Gods Army we have to fight all though we have to cry, We have to hold up the Blood Stained Banner we have to hold it up until we die. Music to Jesus ears these days. God bless you. Have your hand on the old gospel plow. Well the Church has forgotten them so the elder's have to bring them to rememberance and teach them to the young. Great and powerful message for our souls today.
Hallelujah for a man of God still singing sweet songs that carry anointing richness & the truth of the scriptures to them. “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.”~1 Timothy 6:12 King James Version “Be ready to do without the comforts of life, as one of the army of Christ Jesus.”~2 Timothy2:3 The Bible in Basic English “No one who serves as a soldier is entangled in the activities of [everyday] life, so that he may please the one who enlisted [Him]. 2 Timothy 2:4 (LEB)
WOW it has been YEEEEEARRRS since I have heard this one. I love it, it brings back so many memories of going to church with my Grandmother oh how I miss her! Thanks Pastor Smith for posting this and allowing me a moment of GOOD remembrance when often times it is sad. Bless you!!
We are soldiers, got hold up blood stained banner, a sng took me back to childhood the "golden oldis" keeps us in the army fighting. Praise God! A soldier
Thank you, Dr. Smith, for keeping the songs of the old school alive. We need more of this kind of praise and worship in our churches. Many churches have traded songs about the Name of Jesus and the Blood of Jesus for contemporary emptiness--no anointing, no spirit. I felt the presence of the Living God, as I watched this video. Keep up the good work!
I have looked up the history of this Gospel Classic, and like other Gospel Classics, no one knows who wrote this song. It sends chills up my spine everytime I hear it.
IF I was in Your Church ID be Praising and Amen en..I loong 4 a Church as Yours with The Old School Hymns- Ole School..The Singing Pastor Dewey with a Love 4 Jesus..Tnanks
Psalms 23 Thanks thank you Jesus I need the 23rd psalms I need some help right now thank you Jesus I need some help right now this is 23rd song I need the 23rd psalms right now
Truly I do enjoy hearing and reminiscing on the great gospel songs of old. Really it is very refreshing and uplifting to the soul. May God bless you Pastor Dewey Smith.
Thanks Pastor Dewey for another great post!!! You are touching many lives through these old gospel standards and you've got folks revisiting these every sunday morning across this nation during Worship Service. May God continue to bless your calling, and You tube..I know that He will.
Jesus, I am grateful that You want to walk through painful experiences with me. Please use my experiences to bring me-and others-closer to You. When I look back on my challenges, help me to see how You were with me, how You guided me, and how You used my situation for good. Thank you for being a miraculous God. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
You JUST took me STRAIGHT BACK To Elwood KS...First Baptist Church with my Beautiful Grandma on the piano playing as the I marched in with the Youth Choir singing THIS song! Old School is the BEST SCHOOL! ❤️🎼🎵🎶🎹❤️
I've been singing this wrong, lol. I thought it was "We have to fight, although we'll have to die". I remember singing this so in conjunction with "We're Marching (Up to Zion)" as a kid in the junior choir 😊
Pastor Smith, God Bless U and Thank U Sir...I was watching and sharing this Video with a coworker and we both agreed how U make it look so Easy..(Anointed!!). I would like to request that U repost some of the other Classics that I enjoyed from U awhile back...U know the ones...30 or 40 pounds ago..before U made it over (hehehe). I promise I will save them to Favorites this time.....And when I get to Atlanta...please Save a seat for me!! Your work is Truly a Blessing even to us Pentacostals...
@ga92peach Man, you are soooooo right. These worship songs mean so much more now that I am 24 and experiencing life. Can't thank my Gramz enough. Like she would say..."I was raised" lol
Now is the time, for our people to sing these songs again. But, with renewed and accurate understanding. So that we may receive the faith, that was once delivered unto our people. (Jude 1:3-4 KJV) Truly we are... even as Prophet Isaiah said we would be. Isaiah 42:22 (KJV) 22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. Spoiled in the sense we are ruined and so far removed from who and whoms we really are. We don't know ourselves. Baruch 2: 30-35 Genesis 15:13 Jeremiah 30:3-4 Zechariah 10:9 When Father Daniel looked down the line like our great Prophets Jeremiah and Isaiah he saw what the Negro would become. It made him weak. So much so he couldn't bare what he saw, he passed out. Likewise Prophet Jeremiah wondered so heavily at the anguish and outcome of the Negro, he asked. Jeremiah 30: 6-8 (KJV) 6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? 7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. 8 For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
This is a classic!! Churches don't sing this anymore. In times like these, we need to look back and get the old school hymns and songs.
The junior choir ...OMG so many good memories...yessss
I am 24 years young these old songs take be back to my childhood!! I love me some old hymns!
Pastor Smith sings the songs my Mom used to sing to us when I was growing up... I still remember this & I'm 42...
Every Baptist Church ushers marches to this song, every anniversary lol. God is Good!
