*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul-there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”
Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.
I remember my mom playing this when my grandma passed in 1999 and I broke down crying. My mom just passed three days ago, I’m listening to it again in tears. I know God will bring me through once again.
I'm so sorry for your loss 🥺⚘💐
You're not alone ❤
Awww, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I grew up listening to this album. My mom played it nonstop. I pray the God of all comfort, comforts you during this difficult time!! Be encouraged. I know first hand that death is not easy, but I encourage you to grieve, and move on, don’t let it cripple you. With each day that passes, it gets a little bit easier and easier!! xo💞
May god wrap his arms round her .when u think of her she will come .our love ones who have be called back to the lord are never ever far away x ❤
Be strong 💪 ❤😢
Y'all got a white boy out here tearin' up in this work truck. God is good. Thank Christ for the Cross.
When it hits you in the work truck, you know God is working!!!🙏🏽

Gotta be able for the next GENERATION of people who have the right to be the Greatest of all time to get to their own life to make sure they are all in their own 6 and they can do something about the world that they have been testing with his father who has never seen it before we had to take their lives to get the best solution to this world and that the world would not the same effect as we did before it was not a single day I was living with the same people in my building as well as the rest of my own family but also a few more people than ever before we had the opportunity to make the decision that they had the same rights to do what they WANT and we are in the Awakening of his own place to live without us because they were not even the ones that they had been born with the world we were not so much better than their new GENERATION of the UNIVERSE in their own life in this world they are all in a different direction than you and Yours are all in one anothers universe in which his mind was very clear and he will be back to life as he is now conscious of what lyou say about to be the first person to make the world feel like he was having to do something that he has never imagined before we were born and we were able to be able to be the most Beautiful people in his FIRST SEASON of the day I had the opportunity to learn to have focused upon his FIRST thoughts of their own time to the point where the truth of God was very clear in their minds about how they were going through the process of their own time with their own people who had a good idea to do it with their own people who were not the ones that were the ones I had to be with the other way around but the fact was not so much as usual in this case but they did not have the power to get out there in a hurry to make sure that they were able to get it done today but the only reason they can be proud is not the fact of the matter of his or the whole world of heaven or hell but it doesn't mean they can do anything for you to do that they are just saying that we have to be in this world to be able to make sure we are all together in this way that's what they want us who will not go through the war on terror because we were not able for the next one who would have done it in this case because of their existence in this world we are in danger that we will be forced into our lives by the end of their lives in order for the people that are going on to the future of the United nations to make sure they know what to expect from us to be in our own hands on their mission to have them in our hands on our troops to the extent that the United needs and to make the right decision to do what it does for the world that is not in his position as well as his FIRST term in order for the next step to have to deal with this issue in this country where they are not in need to submit their new constitution to be the only ones that will allow them to do what they WANT to do to the world that they had in the past and that we could be the first ones to be the FIRST to have the power of the government in order for them to come back from their own time in this world where they are not in a place where they can get back from their own time to be in their own life in the future because they don't WANT to have the same kind of power to be in the right direction than the one that they have been doing it for the last time and rem time for their new year's resolution and the Atmos will not to make sure that they are not the only people who have been killed by the police force and they will not be allowed to the United kingdom in this case of the past two decades in this country where they were not able to get into the same place that and the other people would be nice to be the FIRST to come to be the FIRST to come to the table with the help they are all in the right place for the job to do what you want to do what you want them to do and you will be happy to help them for being a part of your life in the long story you are in the best position to have the opportunity for them to have the right to work on their own people who have the right to make sure they don't get to know each other's feelings about the person in the future or the other people who don't WANT them to have the power of the world that is not going anywhere in this country where it was not enough for the next generation to come up with something like that too soon after that they had to be the FIRST to come up with their ideas to be in the future for their own people who were not in a position where we were not able to be in a place where they were not going through any trouble with the government or the public that they had not in their hands on the app for their purposes to have them on their phones in the morning and then it was the end result of their service in this country where we are now conscious about what they are not doing in our society or the media and the internet and the people we are talking to be the FIRST people to make sure they don't have the same information about staying in a place where they were not allowed
And God Bless You

And lead me home
When my way grows dreary
Precious Lord, lead me near
When my life is almost gone
At the river I will stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand
Take my hand, precious Lord
And lead me home
In a thousand years, a girl will be born whose voice will equal or surpass the voice of Aretha Franklin. That's how great and unique she was as a vocalist.

God bless and protect all people.
# Mercy, Mercy Me!
I am here after Freddie Mercury said this was his favorite singer - now I know why! Much love and respect to both.
I'm here after trying to figure out what kind of music inquired him, because his had such soulful albums.
Me too ❤️ Freddie Mercury ❤️
also, this song was played at his funeral ...
@@shaonrakaphani8461 apparently he was buried to it
this song has even been played on Freddie's funeral when they laid him down
My intro to this song was last week I'd destroyed some things in my room in a dark moment drunk yet this song feels like healing ever since
Please know you are not alone & you are stronger than whatever you are going through. Praying for you 🙏🙏🙏
@@diamond_queen111 Thank you
Stay strong.
Nobody can sing the gospel songs like Aretha Franklin Her voice was truly anointed by God Blessed her in heaven ❤❤❤
My mother would listen to this album while in the kitchen cooking Sunday dinner. I still listen to remind me of her faith and mine.
This is a master piece
the 32 people who disliked this fantastic woman and wonderful song are just jealous that you can't be her.. NO-ONE CAN SING LIKE ARETHA FRANKLIN... NOT BEFORE NOT NOW OR EVER.... 💖💖💖💖
Amen.
I bought this album for my mother in 1972, this was number
one album, this was the true gospel music.
This the album most important of Aretha's career
You can’t help but to tear up as you hear this song. Besides that I really love this song, even though it is my first time listening to it. Today marks 6 years since we lost the Queen of Soul, and one of the greatest singers of all time, Aretha Franklin. May her legacy live on always and forever! ❤🕊️🕊️8/16/2024

ARETHA🌹
Precious Lord take my hand, without you I'm nothing. Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light
I’ve just discovered this album. Her vocals in this song is like giving my ears the biggest hug on a cold winters day. I’ve heard this song now at least 15 times and I’m amazed ever time I play it. What a wonderful woman she was. I’d go all out and say she was the greatest diva of all time
Freddie has brought me here ❤
i also
Freddie who??? I’m just wondering.
@@candyscandyhouse mercury
@@emmyh1468 WHAT!? I have to see it Thanks.
Nothing
The greatest female singer of all times.
Nice 👍 song
Jesus is my best friend
Thank you Retha.
More young people need to hear this
So true. May the angels help them.
Kids Nowadays don’t know good music I
Kids don’t know good music all they want to hear killing and other shit
When I get tired and I'm sick of people who don't know how good they have it I put this on and I think of my mother and all of the pain and trouble they went through to make sure that we had a better life and this was the soundtrack that gave us hope to carry on
Cecil Ingram God bless 🙏🏻🌹
Amen
Cecil Ingram - So good to hear. May God continue to bless you and those you love.
Yes sir!! HalleluYah!!
Amen to that!
This song got me through the most difficult times in my life!!Jeez,I love the the lord,with all my neing❤
4:25 was sick ♥️♥️
Sorry for your loss
Beautiful songs....so inspired by this music.....
RIP our queen Freddie ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Grande Aretha !!Canterai sicuramente in paradiso con gli angeli
This song touches my soul every time I hear it❤
" Close your eyes and meditate on HIM.." Praise BE!!
Yes!!!! That part ❤️
Praise Be ( I only think of handmaids tale now smh)
Happy Birthday, Aretha Franklin!!! This album has gotten me through some dark times.
Me too
Same ❤
Amen. Her voice is still getting me through hard times.
This song of all on this album makes my hair stand on end. Nothing like some Aretha - (Rest in paradise) - in the morning! Gosh what a funeral hers was, live on TV!
I shall have no regrets if, aged 75, I’m taken by the Virus: I’ve followed Aretha since 1967. She enriched my life. “I say a Little Prayer” is the song of my 53-years’ relationship with my wife. I have no religion, and thank you, if there is a creator. My wish is that humans will end up all being one colour of skin: cafe-au-lait.

GOD is Real
Galatians 3:28 1 John 5:13
A friend in Jesus, a.mighty mighty good friend in Jesus. Yes a good friend
I do remember my mom playing this song every day cleaning the house she started to cry for my grandma dee- Dee get sick go the hospital. She told her mom love u. Love nikki leigh Scott
Precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me on, let me stand,
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn;
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light:
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.
When my way grows drear,
Precious Lord, linger near,
When my life is almost gone,
Hear my cry, hear my call,
Hold my hand lest I fall:
Aretha Franklin,
Was anointed with a spiritual gift of praise!!
🙏🏼🙏
This is the song that first brought me to faith, I've turned my back and again but as we know it's always one step back to His loving arms ❤ Thank You Precious Lord 🥲🎶🎶
Nice message. Thanks.
This song helps me to get over a lot of grief and unnecessary things that I was going through .Praise God for his love and mercy 🥺
This is my favorite song, maybe even favorite song. It really gets my spirits up no matter what
Yes we love you
Amen lord
