How wonderful to go back and remember this special moment I experienced 45 years ago when I got to not only hear this, but actually be in the choir and sing this with her. I was 15 and in the choir with my mom, sister, brother and uncle. Incredible experience to see it again and remember!

I absolutely loved Ethel singing this! I used to do an impersonation of her over WMBI in Chicago back in 1970. If you know of anyone who’s been raped and is going to have an abortion, remind them that Ethel’s Mother was raped. If she had the abortion we would never have had Ethel.

My grandmother was a hillbilly from Va, devout christian, and prayer warrior for my Lord, The Christ, Jesus of Nazareth!! She was quite literally, "The Constant Gardener". She was undoubtedly the piller and cornerstone of my family indeed! We grew up as Pentecostal Christians. She just loved loved loved Jesus! 70yo woman carrying buckets o water, digging holes, tending to 6 acres o land in the country alone, 5 children and 10 grands. She used to whistle while she worked n praised God. Eye on the sparrow was her favorite. Ethel Waters reminds me so much of my grandmother. I'm thankful to have so happened across her music .

I'm so glad you were able to play these songs to your Mommy. But can you imagine her joy when she slipped over to Heaven's home. And gets to hear Sister Ethel Waters. Praise God! What a thrill!!! I sang hymns to my Mommy too during her last hours (at 92 yrs). At the end she was lying with her eyes closed and her hands folded peacefully on her breast when her eyes suddenly flew open, her arms went up in praise as she gasped an amazing "OH!!!". And just as quietly she folded her hands again and was "Home" as well. It was an exclamation of AWE! I KNEW that she had seen a most glorious view! Of course, as I listen to the Near Death Experiences of those who've gone and come back, they only confirm her experience to me. She had spent 43 yrs in Mexico as a missionary- linguist, Bible translator, in a village of indigenous peoples...living in stone-age conditions for quite a few yrs. Bless you for telling about how your dear mother loved these songs/hymns of heavenly ASSURANCE.

I come back to this recording throughout the year and it's still such a blessing and joy-full reminder of what I'm living for. For Him, through Him, thanks to Him. And my heart swells and floats up in my rib cage fuelled by that Joy. Happiness is a fleeting emotion, but His Joy is a sustaining life force. Even amidst fear for my life, crippling pain, and cultural milestones passing me by one after another, this song - and her interpretation of it - bring me back to the essentials: in all of creation I'm just a simple plain sparrow, a nobody with nothing special. And the One who can create galaxies out of nothing, and speak to storms, and create beings with a conscience and a will of their own, wants to be there for lil ol' me. And commune and share, and take delight in my small accomplishments, and sing together. There is no other like my God. May I be found faithful all the days of my life, and I will have lived a full life all from this bed I call home. He's so good and patient, and forgiving and funny too! Maybe being a sparrow has been a huge gift after all.

Thank you for your precious message....as I sit here in tears. I don't know of any other belief system in the world that provides such an intimate experience of a Love so far beyond and above human 'love.' As Paul says in Ephesians 3:18- 20. "... that we may be able to comprehend what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height, and TO KNOW what is the Love of Christ which passeth knowledge, that we may BE FILLED WITH ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD.... Him that is able to do EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY, ABOVE ALL that we ask or think, ACCDG TO the Power that workers in us!!!" That is so awesome, so overwhelming...and WE are to share HIS kind of Love, HIS UNCONDITIONAL APPROVAL!!! Not of our ungodly behaviors, but OF US. Period. Yet, even those, He's got covered, totally blotted out. Not in HIS awareness at all. GLORY! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, FATHER DEAR.

I have her two books telling of her childhood and rough, rough life in Chester. PA and Philadelphia. (Kater and South Streets). My husband and I lived right in that same area for 4 yrs. (1963-1967) while he was in his residency at Jefferson Hospital. It must have been quite the neighborhood during her childhood. I love how she closes by saying, "See you in Heaven. I'll be lookin' for you.". That will be a real thrill. Bless her heart. And thank YOU so much for posting this. I had never heard her sing but had read her first book maybe 40+ yrs ago and wept through it. More recently found her second book.
