My son just passed away in January 2022. This song keeps running around in my head. Thank you. I love this song, always have, this and the Ruff side if the mountain.

Old gospel singers know how to bring the spirits into the room! Thank God for the music and singers.

Praise Him! My darling husband, Edward W. Purvis,Jr. (1951-2015) I wait anxiously to join you, Up Yonder!

My God, Tramaine's voice sounds just like it did when she was 25 years old. What a gift.

This was her at Longview Heights sda Church . I was the proud pastor at this time. Wonderful Church!

This is the recessional hymn for my mother's funeral this Saturday July 4, 2020. I miss her so much and know she must be happy up yonder with her God. RIP Leonie McDonald

Lady Tramaine Hawkins has been a favorite vocalist of mine. She is anointed and true. Her voice is clear, crystal clear.

This was my mommas song!! The anniversary of her passing is tomorrow, and I'm playing this in my house today in her honor. Love and miss you momma. It's been 30 years and the pain just doesn't stop. Rest😥

She a straight legend this song is timeless

March 4, 2020 my mother pass, her last 2 weeks here when i played this song it still brought a smile to her face.

Still in the original key. Amazing. she has a nearly 40 year old daughter at this time? Black don't crack

I'm an old soul cause I rather listen to the old gospel music

I cannot finish this song without crying... Tears of joy... For my Mother.💔 She just went up Yonder on 1/23/24. ❤

Wow ! She was 8 months pregnant when she recorded this, and she still hits the notes the same , I know her daughter is proud !

There is no pain like the pain of loosing a grandmother. This song continues to give me comfort in knowing that one of these old day I will soon be gone but until then I will run this race. Rip Grandma 9/19/2018

I remember my grandma used to play this kind of gospel music on Sunday morning and she would be feeling good with tears in her eyes!Me and my brother were small lil boys and we would ask her why she was crying?We didn't know,but we knew when we got a lil older!She just was feeling God's presence all around!And we are still going to church 40 years strong!

This is real Gospel Music.

This song opens the flood gates to my heart & out pours the feelings of love, laughter, faith, joy, comfort & trust... I'm going up yonder to be with my Lord {one day, Sweet Jesus, one day}

She has some lungs on her, even after singing this song almost 40yrs... WOW...that was HOT

Gave me goosebumps. Lady Tramaine Hawkins voice is truly amazing

She was the Yolanda Adams of the '70's & '80's but much more graceful, Holy, vocally seasoned, savvy, & graceful. Love this woman

She sang that and directed the heck outa that choir.

This song is a reminder that we aren't on this planet to stay long, just as well as those close to our hearts. This lady is a blessing to us all, the lyrics are deep.

I've never seen what she looked like til now! Absolutely beautiful! I knew it! At 39 this was my Mothers Moms favorite gospel! Now I finally know why. I love you Jesus. God bless you all

Mrs.Hawkins still got it!!! such a powerhouse singer and an anointing

This is now one of my favorite worship songs, it leads me right into the presence of the Lord Jesus! I first heard it while a prayer partner at TBN, while I was praying for individuals, the overseer use to play it. I heard at the last meeting I spoke at and wow, it brought back amazing memories of being at TBN. Since then I have been listening to this amazing worship and interceeding for the world! This is an excellent way to start each and every day 1st in the word of God then get into this worship, you just may never be the same! Come on worship Him. 21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews. 23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:21-24 World English Bible Pubic Domain

Tramaine, you said "this song is all over the country". I've been researching 'global gospel choirs'. This song is being sung literally all over the world. In certain ways it is as much of a classic as 'O Happy Day'. Thank God for you and the amazing Hawkins Family.

LOVE me some Tramaine Hawkins 2019

Raised on this song 🙏 Saturday morning my mother would clean the house with her Mr Clean to this song...Sunday morning she would replay as we got ready for Sunday school

RIP MOM GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. YOUR LEGACY WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE ON THROUGH ME. GONE UP YONDER!!!!!

I get chills everytime I head this Song!

My sister passed away 4/23/22 and my mom used to sing this to me my sister and my lil brother. She always would sing this so we could sleep and now I see why she did it helps me go to sleep knowing my sister had god now god has her ya pray for my family 💜💜💜

I love this song. Sometimes when I'm sad I sing this song. When this world get's me down I sometimes just spontaneously just break out singing "Goin Up Yonder."

I can remember singing this song in the children’s choir on Sunday mornings.

Can you imagine going to church and hearing music like this? How spiritually inspiring it would be? Wow!

What a beautiful song my mom always sung this song so when she died of course I had to have one of her best friends sing this song at her funeral REST MY ANGEL .Joyce M. Johnson 1947-2009 SAVE A PLACE FOR ME MAMMA .You was in so much pain and never said a word at times Im Glad YOu rest in Our Fathers Protective arms .

She can sing!!! One of my favorites.

First heard this song in the late 70's. It's 2015 Jan. 1st and I still get goose bumps and tears.

Goin up Yonder is my favorite Gospel song. I can't wait to go up yonder! I'm ready whenever Jesus wants to take me. Seriously.

Last time I seen my Son With his back to me I ask Where r u going? And he pointed his finger up To the sky He has gone up younder To be with the Lord I miss him so much My baby.

She still got it

my mom use to sing that song all the time before she she passed.just listing to this song brought me to tears. and the singers and the band blessed me. beautiful song

Tramaine can sing a song she is so blessed. I love her

Yes Lord!!!! This brings back the days of Church youth choirs and singing this song on Sunday morning I. Front of the Church congregation. I got the chance to see her and Walter at a DC youth choir competition and the whole building shook when they took the stage and she sang this song. We where there for 4 hours and she had four standing ovations. 👏👏👏👏👏💯

This is my favorite gospel song This lady is truly gifted.

This is a genuine God given voice, even when she is older the vocals are so pure and unshaken

I think of my grandma and mom, as I hear this song. Continue to rest in paradise.

What a beautiful voice she has. Heavenly. So sad for Kobe and all his lost friends this week. RIP

Classic Contemporary Gospel Music Living Legend! Lady Tramaine Hawkins always hits a home run!! What a blessing!

I have loved "where the roses never fade" since first I heard it, and Linda is such a sweet person: It's her song:

I love Tremaine...one of the top three voices in Gospel music. I put her up there in my life with Mahalia and the Clark Sisters. her music brought me through many dark times growing up in South Central L.A. This brings back memories of my church in South Central. Love it!!! Thank you Tremaine for using your voice for God's glory. I t brought me through. I still have your lps on my shelf.

I love this song, it's touches my soul...

WHEN THIS NYC NATIVE WAS A MEMBER OF THIS CHOIR AS A PRE-TEEN, I KNEW I WAS A PART OF SOMETHING GREATER THAN MYSELF. GOD BLESS THE BROOKLYN TABERNACLE CHOIR:-)

And the dead in Yahshua shall rise first, 1 Thess. Soon I go to sleep and in Yehwehs care. And when i rise, Iam going up YONDER, but not until then. Eccl: the dead know not anything. One of the most powerful tunes ever !

Beautiful Voice ♥️

RIP Grandma and Mother

A great Gospel classic that's always sung a Going Home Celebrations.

What a beautiful rendition. Brings me peace. This is the anniversary of my dear Mother's transition to Heaven~ Lady Tramaine Hawkins, your voice and those of this choir are angelic~ Truly my favorite gospel song. Sobs of pure joy when I heard this version~

I'm goin' up yonder To be with my Lord I can take the pain The heartaches they bring The comfort in knowing I'll soon be gone As God gives me grace I'll run this race Until I see my Savior Face to face

My favourite. Hope someone sings at my memorial.

She still sounds good! Love It

Godly! Hallelujah! Blessings. Thanks. Franny P

When I was a little, my mom would play this song in the car and it became my favorite. I just remembered just now.

The legend herself Lady Tremaine Hawkins singing her signature song. No one does it better.

I miss you Dad. Cant wait to see you again. I love and miss you so much. 😭💔

Oh my! What an incredible energy and command she brings. It must have been a huge blessing to be in that audience

Yes Lord sing it beautiful lady always loved to hear you sing this song🎶❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I discovered this woman yesterday and I’m mad how late I am

Love this Song! It always make me cry. Love you daddy, Steve, Mike, Uncle Smitty.

I Love That Song

It gets NO better, praise GOD.

This song requested at my dad's funeral...my favorite ❤️30+year's ago... Still

My great grandmother has passed away I think of her everyday

Lord knows this woman can bring you to your feet and make you shout beautiful voice she still got it love her keep on singing

I don't know what denomination this church is. I don't know the choir director or if they rehearsed much, nor do I care about the clothes our outfits they wore. What I do know is when the tempo slowed, in the middle of this song, out of the blue the tears just started to flow. Yes, I long to 'go up yonder' simply because this world is not the place to seek shelter.

One of my favirite gospel songs of all time. Wow....goosebumps everytime I hear it. Such a powerful voice. God truly blessed Ms. Hawkins!

She has a voice like butter. I love her version the best

I like it when singers just sing the song and DON’T destroy it by overdoing it. The song wasn’t EXACTLY “as recorded” but, it was still enjoyable.

If we keep our eyes on the prize we too will see the LORD

Great song by a great lady
