Who is listening to this song in 2024?
I'm listening right now - I miss this old time music in the churches today - This is the kind of music that gets right down through your bones into your soul.
Mr I’m from Mississippi
✋🏻
I miss
I just played it today because it's Mother's Day, and it makes me think of mom. This is the gospel music we were raised on "back in the day" Reverend James Cleveland, The Five Blind Boys of Mississippi & Alabama, Mahalia Jackson, Shirley Ceasar and many, many other wonderful artists of the day. In still listening

The first man leading the song (Big Henry Johnson) is my grandfather. I am so elated to find this video as I only had the opportunity to meet him once when I was 13. And he passed away shortly after that. I am working to find out all that I can about him as I know none of his family or anything. This video is one way I can teach my child who her family is. Thank you for posting. Oh my profile pic is his son Henry Johnson, Jr. Don't they look just alike!!
P.s. I have since changed the pic.😊 That's me!
B4 i got 2 the last sentence, i was like🤔 who ever his profile picture is looks just like the man singing. Yup they look like twins.
Henry Johnson was given a voice from God he was truly a unique human being with a unique voice I love every song I've ever heard him sing you should be very proud of your heritage and I l love the beautiful men from Mississippi these men could sing
I tell you one thing....He can SANG!!Pure natural voice,none of the stuff back then that they use today to make you sound good.Back then you used your natural God given talent and he had it.Bless you and Rest in Heaven Mr.Johnson.And yes ,I see the resemblance in the picture,he has something to be proud of,such a Blessing.I have watched this 10 times now.
Wow I feel you seeing this makes me think back my grandfather's group he was in we don't hold a candle to old time singers imagine if racism didn't exist think of all the voices we didn't here
Listing 2 this on my wifes remembrance of her son who would of been 31 today....Amen and Amen...And Amen
Who listen in October 2020? JESUS JESUS JESUS lead me through this storm!
This is CLASSIC AMERICANA ...Just as relevant Oct.2020 as Oct. 1965....These are the kind of men America needs right now, and still exist. GOD FEARING MEN=Strong families= Strong country!

What’s the lyrics?
November 2020!
They don’t make music like this anymore. Black southern gospel is by far the best! Music like this lifts u up so high u have to look down to see heaven! God bless!
Gods richest blessing on his. Dear children.
all israelite music is great no matter where you find us.
@@yadiah4319 absolutely bro
Misty Kimm Goodness. Goodness
Yes, it is!!
Very inspirational! If the blind can find reason to thank God, I then should find more than enough reasons to adore Him. Thank you guys!
AMEN 🙏From Mississippi! Hallelujah...
Amen
Он видит Бога, Которого зрячие не видят.
Just what I feel at this moment . A special man .
@@janbishop728I second that from Alabama ✝️
Me and my grandpa would sit outside and sing songs like this when I was younger. I’m grateful for those times. RIH Pawpaw
Me too
Just a guitar and 5 brothers 🙏 Heaven Sent
5 blind men, a guitarist, hands clapping and heart and soul in the music!!! Glory to God!
Maybe their earthly eyes were blind but their spiritual eyes were wide open. What a blessing.

I am 78 years old never heard this song before by the 5 blinds boys a friend of mine from Indiana sent this to me at 3:00 AM this morning August 10th 2023 and I just can't seem to stop listening to it. Lord God Almighty if the blind man can think God what's wrong with us who can see to God be the glory in Jesus name Amen I love him.
I heard them sing when I was a kid old red neck woman now Poplarville Miss 78
Old time religious
I needed this today...thank you JESUS...
Lord remember me
@Michelle Staunton ..
Praise
Him
and everyday, sister. Praise The Lord. His mercy endures For Ever.
Amen SISTER
This will never get old! 🔥
NEVER EVER 🙌🏾🙌🏾
NEVER! I’ll take this over what’s out now.
My grandfather took his last breath in my arms and we were listening to one of their songs he loved them
I’m not even a Christian but these old time Gospel singers and groups tear out my soul each and every time. I’ve watched this video 6 times already. I mean Henry Johnson was a vocal anomaly. So much control, that range, such power....that growl....all without showing the slightest sign of strain or effort. Unreal!
J.A. Holland’s Quiet Storm
The Bible says "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the father of lightes , with whom is NO VARIABLNESS neither SHHADOW OF TURNING".James 1:17.
Those men sing from their heart to the one who made them , because of the grace of God on their life.God in his infinite wisdom come to us sinners, to embrace us with his unconditional and eternal love.For the word of God says, " GOD DEMONSTRATED his LOVE towards us in that while we were yet sinners CHRIST died for us".Ro.5:8.
When Christ was crucified at Calvery's Cross on the weight of the sinnes of the whole world, that was the most spectacular event in the history of the human race.It was the ultimate demonstration of God's infinite love for sinners.
My friend I hope you will read this whenever you come to listen this song.
If you are not saved yet and still watching this song for what ever reason believe that it is God who directs your attention to it.And I believe he has good things for you. The Bible says , "...God is not willing any should perish but all come to repentance".
The word of God also said ,
" All we like sheep have gone astray we have turned every one in to his own way, and the Lord has laid on him the inequity of us all".
"As it is written there is none righteous no not one".
"There is none that understands, there is none that seeketh after God".
"They are all gone out of the way , they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good no not one".
"Who so ever keep the whole Law and offend in one point he is guilty of all".
" There is a way that seems right unto every man but the ends there of are the ways of death".
The Lord Jesus said,
"I am the way the truth and the life no man can come unto God but by me".
Again, he said,
" I am the door if any man comes by me he shall be saved...."
The Lord Jesus alone fulfilled the requirement of God' s moral law for we sinners by upholding it.Only the life of our Lord on earth pleased God the Father.The bible said
" Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes".Every one of us who decended from Adam and Eve came in to this world with inherited depraved nature.The word said " Behold I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceived me".
God is holy he can not be approached by sinners.
Salvation is completely the gift of God' s free grace.
It is completely a matter of knowing our impotence to come to God on our effort.It is about setting a side self righteousness, self confidence to approach The Holy God and only placing faith on what Christ have done for me at the cross.This is God's method of salvation and the Lord Jesus the only way to God.
I must be sincere admitt to God I am a sinner and humbly ask to forgive all of my sinns and ask him to give me eternal life on the basis of what Christ has done for us at Calvery.
Then, God will keep his promise to save. His promise is "Who so ever call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" .Please, repent your sins and ask God to save you and he will.
@@shalomgomez970 Bible lesson well taught. I praise God for you. It means so much to me as a Christian to see your faith being put into action through taking your time to reply spiritual truth to another soul needing Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. I am in agreement with you in prayer that this person is of a repentant heart and received Jesus Christ as their Lord and savior. Thank you so much for your time, patience, bible study and life-giving Word of God directed to those in need. We have been there.
Peace 💖
Ms. Sharon
God is talking to you sister let him in and believe
J.A. Holland’s Quiet Storm . become aChristian!
It's that holyghost anointing!! It breaks the yoke of sin!!!! Hallelujah!! It makes all the difference!!!
Some of The Very Best Gospel Music I Have Ever Heard, We Need To Bring Back Some of This Kind of Gospel in Our Worship! I Love These Men! Now I'm Dancing!!!
I agree :)
Just found this march 2020 63 year old white woman stuck at home because of the corona virus wow sends chills down my spine 👏👏👏👏👏👏
That's real gospel singing there. 🙌
Thank you My Heavenly Father for all u have done for me…You have helped me Endure s many Obstacles in my Life…….And I Thank u and I love you….AMEN
41 year old white and Indian(native) here. I too got into this Blessed Gospel music during the sickness...I think in my case it was a natural progression as I always enjoyed soul music. May I suggest a few more? Check out anything by the Rev. Julius Cheeks. A Great Album is *Songs of Praise* he did with the Sensational Nightingales.Also Mighty Clouds of Joy, The Gospelaires, The Evereadys, Robert Blair and the Fantastic Violinaires, Rev. Samuel Kelsey, 5 Blind Boys of Alabama,Inez Andrew's, Mahalia Jackson, Etc. I only brought up skin hue because you did. I think we can agree music is a bridge that transcends Color...Have a Blessed day!
HALLELUYAH praise YAHWEH sis! HE YEHOVAH ROPHA TGE GOD WHO HEALS!❤
@@jackpalance9509oh thanku sir. ❤ thanku 4 the unfolding of my soul with names I never knew. God bless ya
I'm Muslim n I listen to this daily no matter what praising God is beautiful mashallah to Allah the savior praise his holy name n he shall raise ur spirit
@@Over-for-now leave me alone
In very VERY loving memory of Mr. BIG Henry Joseph Johnson (1929 - 1999 R.I.P. Gone but NOT forgotten).
I don't know what it is, but his testimony in the beginning got me tearing up
that's what I'm talking bout..
good ol hand clapping,feet stomping gospel....glad I came
across this video.
Same as pastor t.l Barrett. So hard to find but moves the soul. It’s real. I hope we get new soul gospel for this generation.
that is big henry Johnson on lead,i sung with him back in the day
+Leon Holston That's Archie Brownlee on lead, my brother. Henry takes the lead in Leaning on the Everlasting Cross, I think.
+Lamont Lewis , no sir not in this clip. Archie was gone by then. That is clearly Henry Johnson (unmistakably for those who know, no offense)! The question is what's the name of the guy that came in on the end (that was not Archie either)!
Yep, you're right Steve A. My bad. I've been calling Henry the wrong name since '56. Happy to have the old guard around to correct me.
Leon Holston who wrote this song?

God works in mysterious ways.. He is all-knowing and exactly at the right time.
😮 the world is a mystery
I don't care what anybody believe it or not that was having a good time don't let him get to you that's not kill it's a mystery my father speak for me God bless you ❤️
Sooooo good!! They were once blind but now they see. Blind to the temporal things of this world, and fixing their eyes upon whats everlasting and eternal.
That was. The best days. Of my life

they see what we cannot!
Everett James that was deep my brother
I known now heart get Eyes when you walk with Jésus !
Well here it is October 10,2019, and today my first time ever listening to the Blind Boys! They were and are great!
How could anybody put a thumb down on these guys, they obviously don't know the Lord by putting a thumb down, Because these guys doesn't have eyes, but they do have the voice!...and it's ringing through out the heavens.
The blind can see what seeing people cannot
You ain't never lied speaking the gospel truth God you
"I was blind...Bt now I see.... U say u can SEE.....yet Ur Blindness remains..."
Said the Blind man
AMEN AND AMEN
Our Lord Jesus Christ Son of God show mercy on Your world
Amen and Amen🙏📖
So blessed to come across this video, to hear them singing & praising the Lord. Such a blessing.
This music is timeless I can remember listening to it as a child growing up in the seventies. The Five Blind Boys of Mississippi music has kept me close to God.
I was playing this song to grandpa while he was bed ridden after battling Covid. He enjoyed it a lot. It got his soul jumping
i wished they were still singing like this.its great.i love it🙂🙂👍👍👍
Thank you Jesus , these gospel singers really know how to reach your soul amen.
BEAUTIFUL!!! THESE OLD GOSPEL GROUPS ARE LEGENDS!!!! I REMEMBER MY FATHER AND MOTHER PLAYING THESE SONGS WHEN THEY WERE ALIVE ON THE STEREO RECORD PLAYER THAT PLAYED RECORDS 45" AND ALBUMS 33".
The lead singer is an absolute fire breather. So dope
Thank you made me happy at a low point in my life once again THANK YOU.
Humbled and mightily blessed by this. All praises to the Most High Yah!
This was an electrifying anointed performance! We are blessed. With singing like these you cannot get depressed. It's the power of the gospel inspired by the Holy Ghost.
Awesome... I love Old Gospel / Spirituals . The Guitarist was perfect Vocals and Feelin was Inspirational. It's so true without Jesus we ain't got Nothing !!!!

Он у Бога, там ему лучше! Кто у Бога, тот счастливее нас, еще живущих здесь.
They can't see but they can SEE. Praise the Lord!

Absolutely awesome!! Let us make a joyful noise to the Lord, that’s what these brothers are doiny🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👍👏👏👏❤️🇱🇷✝️💕
I love old songs like this. Nothing but hands clapping, feet stompin and a guitar. Love it!
Whoooooweeee! This is the kind of guitar playing I grew up on...the kinda church we used to have!
The words are fantastic and the singing is Heavenly, plus the guitarist is playing beautifully. Thank you Lord Jesus!
My hands started vibrating as I was clapping and glorifying God! HALLELUJAH!!
SweetRefreshment
Probably because you were clapping
Jesus wtt work it out
Jesus will work it out
The Fender Jazzmaster guitarist is on point…love quartet music!
Love that guitar! Guitar players done play like this no more.
True gospel music
Lord thank you for opening my eyes when i could not see clearly,for giving me understanding when i just didn't get it for giving me strength when i had given up
Amen
These are REAL men, singing in praise of God and expressing their thanks.
I'm a German and this New Years Eve I will thank the Lord for all my Afro-American bothers and sisters, because they gave the world such wonderful music!
I've been listening to this song everyday for about a week now. Thanks for the upload
I look at this video. Cookin'! I look at the joy on those faces, and I wonder, what in the world is wrong with us (materialistic culture), that we can't just be thankful for what we do have. Inspirational.
Linda Winholtz be happy with what you have amen you said it sister love in Jesus I AM BLESSED BLOOD BOUGHT
Oh sweet sister Linda you said it all! Philippians 4:11-13. I used to drive my sweet Mama back to visit our family back in Mississippi every year or so and just as soon as we got in range we started searching the radio for this kind of Gospel music. This brings back sweet memories.
This the type of gospel I grew up on 2020 I'm still here
Even as an atheist I'm more than happy to declare that there is evidence of the spirit moving through these men's voices...God also blessed that guitar tone.
Come on in to the fold brother.
¡¿¡¿ ....now THAT is an...oxymoron ¿¡¿¿♡♡
Hi my friend ... this music was unique I had not heard such a thing for years and my whole soul was filled with this music and I really enjoyed it ... Thanks for sharing this jewel
They have brought joy to my heart. Thank you Jesus for leading me to this video
I love good church music. This kind of music make you want to shout, dance, etc...
yes
✋🏻
I'm sorry ☹️
MY SOUL IS ON FIRE!!!!!!!
royadam merritt amen
When I hear this I visualize my Grandmother (RIP) in Georgia in the 60's in the kitchen on Sunday mornings listening to this, and now I see that it gave her strength that I didn't understand at the time.
Sometimes you have to go back to the originals to feel the spirit,so many remakes.🎶😊
this is the only kind of singing I understand this is what I came from I don't understand this modern-day chart gospel I just don't understand but I sure love the old time songs
Thanks for memory.
Love your music 🙏💙Lord you’ve been good to me 🙏💙🌟💙🌟💙🌟
Amazingly anointed singing!!l ....from the 👏🏽 clapping to the foot step, and the guitar player is awesome...serving 3 purposes, tempo/drum beat, and music!! Wow wow Truly a blessing to hear this and for MY eyes to behold!!
That's why I love this style of Gospel music. No flashy production, no polished professional musicians, just voices, hand claps, a guitar and the Holy Spirit!
Lord you been so good to me better than I've been to my self I thank you for this gospel song .thank you jesus
They do not have gospels like this any more. I love these old gospels.
There's no better sight than your spiritual eyes...God be praised.🙏🏾❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
Wow! So good music.
They're full of joy and reconnaissance!
Love it!
My feet just got happy, Head bopping 😇. “Whom the Lord sets free, is free indeed!” Mark 20:45
TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
Classic gospel the pain is felt through the lyrics💔 and faces. I can’t imagine what it was like during those horrific times. Love this ❤❤
so PRICELESS.....
Outstanding Rendition of "The Great Blind Boys" This is High Praises To The Almighty in a Very Special Song . Thanks for posting this video.
Men like this paved the way to our greatness as a Nation. Do you recognize the obstacles that they overcame long before MLK? People we are here to stay so get used to this strength of character. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord! Don't spread hate. Jesus said the greatest thing is love.
Amen, The steps of a righteous man are order by the lord. Even Jonah in the belly of the whale. Whom the Lord set free in free indeed
When the guitarist goes into the drive at 3:31. Love it.
Awesome 🎶
Glory he's been so good
This is such a masterpiece that it should be treasured and protected. I've looked for their other performances of this song, but this is my favorite.
Thank you Lord you been good to me my mom turned 91 today
That's Hot, mess around and catch on fire with this song
This right here!!!!!! is the FOUNDATION. It's a shame how we have lost this. Most of what we have today is singers showing EVERY run they can do and bands over playing the singers as they also try to show how many chops and changes they can do.
Awesome Awesome Awesome! Praise the Lord! They may be blind but they can see Heaven!
Wow. Just....wow.
When I think of all the people who WON'T give God glory, and these men are disabled...wow.
Who here in 2021? My my my. Can never get tired of the 5 blind boys.
The lord has been so good to me I feel like traveling on
Thank God for my ancestors. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Love that soul-stirring gospel.
Awesome, timeless performances by first rate musicians and singers! Wow!
They never fail to inspire. Have listened to them for years
I used to listen to the Five Blind Boys of Mississippi on the radio
Me too
That was special
Oh Glad to run in to this song Haven't heard The 5Blind Boys From Mississippi for along time Sounds So Good GodBlessLovePeaceToAllNations
So crazy how timeless this is. I can hear work-songs, gospel, 50s rock and roll, blues guitar, 60s Motown, even a flow as recent as the 80s.
OMG.... I grew up on this music because my daddy loved this music...
I love it 🙏🌈
Same here but I grew up in my granddad and grandma’s house.
