A gospel calling Mahalia Jackson sings

DVD 2010

The "greatest voice of the century,' she sang at the request of royalty, heads of state & presidents. Born into poverty in 1911, Mahalia Jackson's throaty, fervent, rich and distinctive New Orleans-tinged contralto took her from Louisiana's Plymouth Rock Baptist Church choir (performing from age four) to an international reputation as gospel's first lady and "the greatest voice of the century."

Contents:

Disc 1. You'll never walk alone
He she his blood for me
You have my soul
It's a highway to heaven
The Lord's prayer
Go tell it
Let us say our prayers
Take all my sins away
Come on to that scene
Who gives me faith
For every drop of rain that falls
We'll walk this road together
I thank the Lord for everything
Joshua fit the Battle of Jericho
Be not dismayed
Blow out the candles
Throw out the life-line
Down by the riverside
I'm saved by the truth
Living by the book
Out of the depths of my soul I fly
God made me free
Do for somebody else
I see God
I am redeemed
You can't hurt me
It's so wonderful
When the saints go marching in
Do not be discouraged
Disc 2. Walk with Jesus
End of a perfect day
I'm a child of His
Guide me over
Jesus waits
Holding my savior's hand
Somebody touched me
Everlasting love
Let the church roll on
Oh Lord, I believe
Sweet hour of prayer
Give me that old time religion
Remember me
It's my desire
Alone
I have found the Saviour
I started for heaven
Holy Bible
That's all right
Hold me tight
Be my friend
Thank you Jesus
Jesus saves
Our heavenly Father
The Lord touched my heart
Just tell me Lord
The troubles I see
I surrender
He's got this whole world in His hands
