WOW-I LOVE THIS WOMAN-I WAS SO SAD WHEN I FOUND OUT SHE IS ALRADY IN HEAVEN. I AM ON DIALYSIS FOR 8 YEARS-SHE HELPS ME DURING MY TREATMENTS. THIS IS WHY USE YOUR GIFTS BEFORE WE DIE. I HOPE YOU LIKE MY MUSIC FROM THE HEART. MY MOTHER IN LAW OF 34 YEARS IS NAME LULA. SHE IS 93 YEARS OLD IN THE NURSING HOME.. SO SWEET-THANK YOU PRECIOUS. I LIVE IN NASH TN. LOVE TO MEET YOU.

I grew up listening to Lula Collins. Now I'm in my early 60's and her songs still bring chills because she was a very spiritual person and she loved Jesus
If you think this is awesome you should have seen her perform live!!! Oh my God...Sister Collins made frequent visit to my family church in Olive Branch MS......I was 5 then and now I'm in my late 40thies now and still being blessed by her spirit and music. She didn't just sing these praises she lived by them too. I miss mother Collins and very saddened that all of accomplishments isn't being recognized. She paved the way for a lot of gospel singers...Lee Williams......The Williams Brothers and many more to mention. Orlando I certainly hope you are continuing this wonderful journey that your mom left behind(we worked together at WS).
I think this is one of the finest female vocal recordings on the internet. Soul, texture, phrasing and tellin' the damn truth without commercial appeal.. I never saw her in person but, I bet she would have blown my mind.This woman is so very top shelf!

texasjohnnyboy you missed it..... i was one of a very very few who traveled extensively with her... ate at her house, knew her like a Big Sister..... She was Pure Gold in Gospel Singing.... Never to be Duplicated..... Shirley Caesar is the closest performer to her, and yet no comparison..... People literally passed out, fainted, lost it often as she was coming to the stage to perform... Never seen anything or anybody like her since. Glad I had her in my life......and still have all but one record that she recorded..... I don't have "Deep Down In My Heart"
I'm glad to hear your brief story that, obviously, holds first hand depth. I'd never heard of Lula before but, once I came across this tune, it really caught my attention. I kept going back to this tune as one that was setting the pace. It lays it on the line and tells ya how it's supposed to be done. The substance in her voice comes with all the aspects of being the real deal. She eats the "blue note" alive and she gives it back to ya and right from her heart... the way it's supposed to be done. Because she had no use for glamour and glitz, she was on the bottom and she was so very strong that she could hold up the top. I can hear it in her voice..... and so could those people that passed out, fainted and lost it as she would be approaching the stage to perform. I can't tell ya how much I think of this woman's voice. It's amongst the very finest I have ever heard. Her huge foundation makes other's glamour & glitz look like a sin.
@texasjohnnyboy you get to hear it just as I saw it.... I saw people fall out when she walked into a sanctuary. Never picked up a microphone... just walked in.. Never seen that with any other gospel artist.... I did see that happen when Michael Jackson of the Jackson Five walked out on the stage of the Mid South Coliseum...
I like this and not only does the song sound good, but the lyrics are right on because Holding On, Holding Out, Keeping The Faith in THE LORD JESUS, Abiding In HIS LOVE And Enduring Until The End is What THE CHRISTian Walk is All About. Lula Collins is Testifying and Encouraging, Very Good Job.
No question about it, aside from Mahalia Jackson, in my opinion Sis. Lula Collins Joshua, with Sister Lottie Buford , J.J. and just a couple more who's names I don't recall at this time, they came to little Dyersburg, TN one Sunday afternoon and turned thing's out. They were AWESOME. Praise God Hallelujah! Never be another.❤️♥️
I've never seen her, have never head of her before... until today... it hits me right in the gut. This woman can sing from a place that is as real and as deep as it gets. The whole world should know who she is. Fabulous!
I loved hearing and seeing Ms Collins perfom she would come down to my church Hopewell Baptist Church in Coldwater Ms backin the 80 and early 90 she is greatly missed
Tgus us what I tell all of my friends and loved ones..please hold to Jesus!!! If he can't help us nobody can. We have to hold to Jesus no matter what we experience in this old life..... yes the kord is that same man!!!!!!!!!! if you hold out....oh i know it will be alright...God promised me oh yes he did....it will be all tight!!!!!!!!! oh i know it will.
Hello, Ben! I believe that your Lula Collins features are amongst the most important in the Gospel category on UA-cam, because of her qualities, and the rarity of her presence on UA-cam. You have done the fans of Gospel a great service by posting these, and I commend you for it. Please, if you can, post anything else from Lula that you happen to have available...Thank you so much! Peace and blessings... ~Erik
I love Lula Collins, I remember when she'd come to MS to sing.. I was a little girl and wouldn't miss seeing her.. Awesome gospel singer, she's truly missed...

@msDebonair901 - it will be a blessing if you can post Almighty God. I have heard that song since I was 8 yr old. I've been searching for over 20 years. May God bless!
@NightlyMirror hey erik! thanks for your kind note. i've recently also posted "help me" from the same album. youtube is not letting me include the link in this reply but check recent videos on my channel and you'll find it!
HOLD OUT KEEP THE FAITH Lula Collins I went home the other day, And after gettin' there, I saw an old friend of mine. Just as soon as she said hello, She began to cry. Yes, she did. I put my arms around her and asked her, "Won't you tell me what's botherin' you?" She went on to tell me, "Lula, you know, I had a hard time tryin' to raise my three little children. See, my husband walked off and left me when my baby was only nine months old. And I did the very best I could, tryin' to bring 'em up in the right way. Yes, I did. Here it is: fourteen years later, look like to me all my work was in vain." And I asked her again: "What happened to you right now to cause you to drink tears for water?" She went on to tell me that her only son was in and out of trouble. "My sixteen year old daughter: I can't tell her nothin' firm no more, 'fore she give me two for one. But Lula, what hurt me to my heart: A few days ago, I found out that my... my baby was strung out on drugs. And I want you to tell me... tell me, tell me, tell me... what am I gonna do now?" I looked up toward Heaven away. And I began to tell her that the Lord is the same man. He's the same today that He was yesterday. And then I took my time. And, you know what I told her? This is what I told her, y'all: "If you just hold out; keep the faith through the night, Everything will be..it'll be alright. Yes, it will. If you just hold, just hold out; keep the faith..keep the faith through the night, everything..everything, everything..It'll be alright. Yes, it will. "It'll be alright. If you can only believe, It'll be alright. Keep the faith, yeah. Everything will be alright. Put your children in Jesus' hands. Just like you thought to when your husband walked off and left ya. He's the same, same man today. Won't you turn it over to Jesus? And the Lord will work it out. Yeah, he'll work it out. He'll work it out. Just have faith. Just have faith. And the Lord will work it out...
There's a song it starts with the lyrics," a few years ago i suffered a mental breakdown" I used to play it for my mother but I've forgotten the title of the song. Do you know the title..

HOLD OUT KEEP THE FAITH
Lula Collins
I went home the other day,
And after gettin' there, I saw an old friend of mine.
Just as soon as she said hello,
She began to cry. Yes, she did.
I put my arms around her and asked her,
"Won't you tell me what's botherin' you?"
She went on to tell me, "Lula, you know,
I had a hard time tryin' to raise my three little children.
See, my husband walked off and left me when my baby was only nine months old.
And I did the very best I could, tryin' to bring 'em up in the right way. Yes, I did.
Here it is: fourteen years later, look like to me all my work was in vain."
And I asked her again: "What happened to you right now to cause you to drink tears for water?"
She went on to tell me that her only son was in and out of trouble.
"My sixteen year old daughter: I can't tell her nothin' firm no more, 'fore she give me two for one. But Lula, what hurt me to my heart: A few days ago, I found out that my... my baby was strung out on drugs. And I want you to tell me... tell me, tell me, tell me... what am I gonna do now?"
I looked up toward Heaven away. And I began to tell her that the Lord is the same man. He's the same today that He was yesterday.
And then I took my time. And, you know what I told her? This is what I told her, y'all:
"If you just hold out; keep the faith through the night, Everything will be..it'll be alright. Yes, it will. If you just hold, just hold out; keep the faith..keep the faith through the night, everything..everything, everything..It'll be alright. Yes, it will.
"It'll be alright.
If you can only believe,
It'll be alright.
Keep the faith, yeah.
Everything will be alright.
Put your children in Jesus' hands.
Just like you thought to when your husband walked off and left ya.
He's the same, same man today.
Won't you turn it over to Jesus?
And the Lord will work it out.
Yeah, he'll work it out.
He'll work it out.
Just have faith. Just have faith.
And the Lord will work it out...
There's a song it starts with the lyrics," a few years ago i suffered a mental breakdown" I used to play it for my mother but I've forgotten the title of the song. Do you know the title..
SING!!
SANG LULA
Tea For One -Led Zeppelin is based on this song
Does anyone have lord make me real
