I think of my granddaughter when hear this song, she passed away at 12 years old and she wasn't able to walk or talk, so I'm hoping that she's dancing with the angels ❤❤. angels..

Gladys Knights is one of the best singers of all times! Her voice is beautiful, powerful, magically harmonious, harmonious. Her timing, her tempo, her gestures tell the story in very convincing and touching way!

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.😭😭

I don't understand why this doesn't have millions of views... absolutely beautiful ❤

I'm a 77 year old man and that brought tears to my eyes. what a beautiful performance. Gladys and that skater togeather was out of this world

That's the beautiful song an when time comes we all need to dance.

As a songwriter myself this one is one of the all time best ever songs and it is matched perfectly with Gladys Knight's amazing voice! BRAVO to her here and the skater as well!

Ms Knight is a true American treasure, I never get tired of her beautiful spirit and voice.

If Gladys doesn't grab you and touch your heart then no singer can,just wonderful.

Gladys version is by far the best!!!!! Hand's down

those background singers are killing it. sanging

Beautiful performance. Keep the faith. Trust God. He knows the plan He has for you.

Oh😢 Miss Gladys can just cut through one's heart with that beautiful voice. I love this song.

I could listen to Gladys' version every day.

I feel sorry for anyone that hasn't heard Gladys Knight's rendition of that song balanced perfectly with the skillful movements of the skater. What a performance!

This song brought to tears. Gladys knight's voice just added that extra feeling and it gave the words meaning.

I cannot dance and neither can i sing. My daughter though is a dancer. But this song is not about dancing and singing. Its about life. I hope we live our lives. I hope we never stop doing things that gives us enjoyment. I hope we are not discouraged by little bumps along the way. I hope we dance. A dedication to my daughter Andy in Harare ..from dada on a tour duty here in Maidiguri Nigeria

No one does it like Gladys Knight. Powerful voice ❤

GOD GOD BLESS YOU 77-YEAR-OLD YEAH I'M UP THERE TOO BROTHER THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL THAT WAS GODLY MAN YEAH OUT OF THIS WORLD

This was the perfect song for Tyler Perry's movie "The Family That Preys".great song especially Knight's version

This is the BEST live performance Ive seen in my life!!!!!!❤

I loved this song when you Lee Ann Womack sang it,but now hearing it interpreted by such a powerhouse like Gladys, I love it even more. She's one of the"best things, that's ever happened"to music.😄🎤🎶💖

Yes ladies and gentlemen, this is a true vocalist that doesn't need auto tune to put a song over. God Bless you Gladys. Not to mention the training and beauty of a talented figure skater.

I quoted some of the lyrics of this song at my mother's funeral service. She was truly a woman who danced.

I keep coming back at least once a week to get life put back in perspective. Phenomenal cover by Ms Knight , I even have to admit , I love this more than Leanne version. I've followed Gladys for at least 50 yrs, shes one of my all time favorites.

Let us all stay STRONG AND STAND FOR OUR RIGHTS

Gladys KNIGHT one of the Greatest Singer Ever in the American Music History!

Gladys is a real treasure. She gives her all on every song and a lot more. God I do love this ladies music . Thank you dearest lady.x

Her voice is stronger than ever! Love her!

Powerful lyrics .

Yesterday I celebrated my 55th birthday and I made sure that it was a very special day. 30 years ago, doctors gave me, at most, 6 months to live. After 11 major colon reconstruction surgeries and ending up at ICU and High Care after most of those and countless visits to the surgical ward, the last being in May this year, I am grateful that "I can still dance". Though the list of things and the amount of food I can take and keep in keeps shrinking every now and then, I am grateful that I have only lost 7kg this year and I still look good 😉. Though the number of activities I can participate in keeps decreasing, with osteoarthritis also having kicked in, I am grateful that I can still play and laugh with my children and my grandchildren. This is the reason behind me writing the book, "A Young Man Who Refused To Die". I dedicate this song to everyone going or who has gone through stuff. I may not know what it is and how it is or has affected your life, all I hope for is that you continue to dance for as long as you still can. Given a choice to sit it out or dance, "I Hope You Dance".

This song kept me alive and sane through a break. Years later, it still fuels me hope ❤🎉

Kudos to Tyler Perry for "Preys" That's where I heard this beautiful song. Gladys, once again at her best.

She gave a new meaning to this song....

This is life. I experienced many cliffhanger saves because of Jehovah in the name of Jesus. Not unbelievable things. Reality.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🤗

Saw this video on a facebook post and I quite simply can’t get enough of it! Gladys is simply an awesome singer….she puts her heart and soul into every song she sends. When I heard her version at the end of Tyler Perry’s movie “the Family that Preys Together”, I had to find it and download for my listening pleasure. It literally brings chills to my spine; my husband and I do a nice slow drag on the dance floor to this one! Go Gladys!!!

I can't stop listening to this song even today... This woman's voice though😭reminds me of my late sister how she loved this song... I used to say I will walk down the isle with it...and yes I will to honor my promises to her.

This sing has a special meaning to me. The last song that was played at her viewing, It means the last song that was played. as I said goodbye to her. It's been 6 yrs & even though I knew life would never b the same I had no idea that nothing at all is the same to me. I live my life preparing to see her again as well as my Dad. I miss them so, so very , very much. But Gods promises gives me a peace that surpasses all understanding. And I know I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, even living without my mom.Yes, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Glory to God who Reigns Forever & Forever. In Jesus Name, Amen

I love this song. It touched my heart the first time I heard it and does so each time I hear it to this day. I just sent this video to my husband, "MY GOLD MEDAL MAN" of 58 years, 7 months and 21 days. I am truly blessed. He has blessed our 2 children, 5 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren our families, friends, church family, neighbors and US Postal Service co-workers in the DMV. Thank you Bobby for blessing my life and the lives of so many others. To God be the glory.

The skater was flawless! Love Gladys too!

Not gonna lie, not ashamed to say that it brought tears to my eyes. I grew up idolizing Ms. Knight , I would sing back up and imagined myself a Pip. Gladys is so down to earth and Community minded as well. The young lady performing her routine brought a whole new feeling to an already emotional song !

Gladys knight will forever be my Gemini sister, she and I were born two days apart hers is May 28, 1944 and mines is May 30, 1944!!! She also is the reason I'm wearing the short hairstyle & has always been my favorite singer of all time, that's right my girl Gladys is just simply the best!!! You better SANG Gladys!!!

this song is so touching and the combination of Ms. Knight, her background and the Skater just put the icing on the cake. BRAVO TO ALL. 💜💜💜

Little bit of soul can carry things a long way!👏👏👏

Gladys voice is beautiful.

1/27/2022, Is my first time hearing this song looking at Tyler Perry Movie . So , I looked it up. The Skater was Outstanding it brought tears to my eye b/c I was sick , but it healed my spirit!!

That voice is just breathtaking and the figurine skater just put the icing on the cake. Beautiful!!!

Absolutely Fantastic Gladys Knight performance and the skater❤❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I love hearing Mrs. Glady's Knight sing this beautiful song live.

I've heard this song done by other talented singers but I never "felt" and "understood the nuisances" of this song like Gladys sings it. It's like her version she is giving important "life lessons" in 4 short minutes for growing through the years, through the decades. And I can't eloquently put in words how Gladys version makes you "see" what the song is saying about life from "start to finish". When she sings "I hope you feel small standing by the ocean", wow I got it from her like no other singer and I'm not putting down other beautiful renditions. Just saying Gladys "nailed it". I have to give kudos too to whomever wrote the outstanding lyrics.

Kelly Rowland would play a good Gladys Knight in her life movie, she favors Gladys a lot!

I love Gladys singing this song I listen to it I know 10 times a day!!!

Giving a shout out to the beautiful ice skating - Kimmie Meissner, American former competitive figure skater, the 2006 World champion, the 2007 Four Continents champion, and the 2007 U.S. national champion.

Love this song Gladys is so special 😂

Gladys and Patti I love their voices and the passion they sing with

My favorite Gladys song

I find it very difficult to listen to this lady with my eyes opened! I never get tired of hearing this Magical Voice👍👍

The Queen....my Queen so talented...Miss Gladys.. And the dancer OMG beautiful.

Not a week goes by without me not listening to this song a day or two, ❤

Hello Mrs knight I am one of your favorite fans and I love this song and you have a great voice and you are a wonderful person and you are a great singer ❤️ and we love you always and keep up the good work

She literally has so much soul!!

Over fifty years ago I woke up from a nap to the sound of Gladys Knight and the Pips singing on television. Her voice sounded so perfect I thought she was lip syncing. It was only after my head cleared and I became fully awake that I realized she was singing live. Looking at this video of another live performance I'm amazed how much she sounds like she did over fifty years ago. You go girl!

I am still listening . Told my best friend This is my Homegoing Song . And I will Dance .

Wow, this was beautiful.

I have heard many other well-known musical artists sing this song. However, talented as the others might be, their versions, in my estimation, cannot even come close to Gladys'. I have always "known" what the words to this song meant when I heard others sing it. Yet, when I listened to Miss Gladys "I felt" what the words meant. Quite a difference.

gladys.... i'm in love with her for decades.........

WOW! This song sung by Gladys Knight and Lee Ann Womack is inspirational and uplifting.

there is not but one Gladys Knight one of GODS ANGEL here with us!

If this version tugs at my heart every time I hear it

I cry everytime I hear Gladys sing this...(I have beautiful memories of a loved one in Heaven.) 😭 Thank you Ms Knight! 💕💕💕💕

This song applies to all of us...when life kicks us in so many ways, we can dance or sit it out. I cant watch this video and not cry, just for the beauty and truth of it.

Everything About This Is Beautiful.... Thank You Lord

Every time I hear this song, it bring tears to my eyes. I woke up to this song on my heart. Beautiful song to me. Has alot of meaning.

Gladys you still have those wonderful legendary vocals.... A fan since the '70s

Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance 😇

When she said uh huh at 3:03 she sent chills down my spine

A classic voice that endures the test of time

2:50 when Gladys says, "Woouw",as the skater finishes her pirouette,my stomach fluttered,and I got chills. This was very nicely done,both the skating,and Gladys´ performance, Loved it,emensely.😄🎶🎶🎤🎶💃🎶🎶👀👀👀😆😆👀

I love Gladys. That was the song that my daughter and I danced to at her wedding. Love, Love, Love Gladys
