My wife is 8 months pregnant and as she was driving today, she got involved in a terrible head collision accident. Her car was pushed 15 metres away while she was inside. She was displaced from the driving seat to the passenger seat. I thank God she survived without any injuries except swellings. After checkups, the baby is 100% okay. God is great.

Who is still looking at this in 2024? 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 YASSSSSSS, LAWDY 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 THANK YOU JESUS 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 SINGGGGGG!!🎤🎶🎵

If my eyes were closed I would think I was hearing Mahalia Jackson singing. He is awesome. God bless him.

All I can say is Praise the Lord..Hallelujah. the child sanging....

This song tells my story. From drugs and homelessness and to almost getting killed. To victory. My God is awesome

55 years old, 14 surgeries & profound hearing loss I often look back and wonder how I got over!! Nothing I did I tell you, NOBODY but God!! I wanna Thank You!!!

He's an old soul . You can hear Mahalia in his voice OMG...yes

I can listen to this all day long over and over. Hallelujah

Ms Mahalia Jackson was part of my family, My mother Gloria Griffin, of The Roberta Martin Singers, and The Caravans toured all over with Ms. Mahalia, she was my brothers God Mother, she helped to raise us, My Grand Father Rev. Dr. William Herbert Brewster wrote this song for her, I hear her voice but I also hear my Grand Fathers heart in the words. Mr. Joshua Nelson sounds exactly like " Ms. Haley " we called her affectionately. She was so amazing I knew her as a child and, they all loved the Lord with their heart and soul. I really miss her so much, she was also very funny, and loved children even she never had any of her own. I will always love her she taught me many things about life. I am planning to write a book, and produce a film about the Gospel singers. I have many stories about the real lives of these Great Gospel Men and Women of our time.

How I wish we could hear singing like this in our Church today! Thank you Lord!

I had a brain Aneurysm back in 2017 the Lord brought me through it without any defeats 2021 my only child died with a massive heart attack and 4 months later my mom died I thank God for his Grace and his Mercy for keeping my mind for just keeping me hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah 🙌

It is amazing to see this true black Hebrew singing How I Got Over. Joshua was born in Ethiopia and also sings Hebrew music. We are the true children of Israel. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord and he did.

SING!!! He did Mahalia justice .... I know she smiling in Heaven... He did her!!! Praise the Lord!

It is amazing how Mahalia Jackson's spirit just took over him from the very beginning. When he sang "I knows His name, I knows His name", I could almost see Mahalia by his side. This was almost too powerful for me to bear.

This tells my story too. I also came from the streets. I am now clean and tanking God I used for 40 yrs .I'm so glad God had mercy for me. That's why I Thank Him everyday and every night.

Tonight was my first night hearing this and all I can say is 🙌🏽🙏🏽 08/09/23

I don't do gospel songs. After hearing this for the first time, This will be the first song I play when I enter my car, and the last I play upon exiting at night. I love this song, this version. Gotta check out Miss Jackson!!!

I was so shocked when he opened his mouth! For the first 3 minutes I couldn’t move mouth opened so wide 10 flies could have flown in it! Wow! My my anointing full of Mahalia’s spirit

Joshua, I will forever be grateful that you sang at my grandmother funeral. I called and you answered. There was no second person and as the preacher said “There is no other Joshua Nelson”.

Thanks for the memories, Joshua Nelson. Thank you Mahalia Jackson for your legacy and service. Rest In Peace.

He is Mahalia Jackson Reincarnated wow So Amazing. Thank you Mr.Nelson

Yasss sometimes you just need these old school gospel hymns to get you through

The Spirit of Elijah fell on Elisha...the Spirit of Momma Mahalia fell on this young man...not just a performance like Sister Mahalia it was a TRANSFORMANCE! Hallelujah Amen.

I just love Mahalia's music ministry. This young man really does her justice!!!

I know for sure if Ms Mahalia Jackson was still alive she definitely would be pleased with Mr Nelson’s spiritual talents. You can feel the Holy Spirit within when he sings. May God bless him.

My God, he sounds just like Mahalia Jackson, love that gospel it puts goosebumps on me, sing it brother, hallelujah.

THAT BACKUP PIANIST WASN’T NO JOKE EITHER!! HE KEPT RIGHT UP WITH HIM!

I am still in awe!!This is my song.Snd yes I am watching this in 2024

I get chills listening to this song. Sing Joshua. Praise God

This boy really channeled Mahalia Jackson! LOVE this song!

I'm a in remission from cancer and I've had 3 right hip replacements and I'm truly blessed he brought me over people need to get it together because we need the Lord

If he did'nt do like my granna would say " boy you better sang that song". I love Mahalia Myself and he had me sing and shouting all over my bedroom, Late in the Midnight hour. He really brought back days when I went to Church with my granny who will soon turn 90 yrs. and they really had church and didn't care what anyone said. I thank God for his Son Jesus and the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Sing on Joshua!!!! Rejoice in the Lord, O,ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright(Psa.33:1)

He sang the roof off of my house about 12-13 years ago... he is authentic and definitely allows his spirit to take over.

This song has been my gospel anthem. I never get tired of this dvd. I may need to purchase another one. If Lady Mahalia Jackson was living, she would have been so honored to hear Mr. Nelson sang her song with such class and dignity. Have mercy Jesus!

MY GOD I JUST FINISHED HEARING MAHILA SING THE SAME SONG./WHAT A BEAUTIFULLY WELL DONE LIKENESS OF HER GLORIOUS VOICE HE HONORED HER MELODY/MEMORY.I LOVE TO SEE PEOPLE'S WHO LOVE GOD'S WORDS AND LOVE ALWAYS TO THE PRAISE AND WORSHIP OF HIM!!!!!!!! I WANT TO THANK GOD FOR ALL HIS GOODNESS

He sounds just like her talent pure talent an angel sent from heaven

Both the pianist and organist can play with excellence alongside Joshua. Truly Almighty God has blessed all three with the talent of singing and playing.

I get chills listening to him, my God!!!!

So he can not only sing exactly like her, he also plays exactly like Mildred Falls her piano player. Thank God Almighty there are still people who have talent like this.

OMG, No words to describe this astronomical spirit-filled performance.

The spirit of Mahalia Jackson is in this man. Amen

I had to take a double take when I heard his voice.... OMG 😲 WHAT AN ANOINTING !!!😇😎👍

Mahalia would be proud. I am happy that God gave a younger person the gift to carry on her legency. Thank God!

I am so proud that God created a young talent person to keep her legency alive. Thank God for this young man!

What a gift...We love Joshua. Still listening this is for the Ages it will live. Lord Jesus🎤💃🎶🎵🎼🙏🎹

Hallelujah! In loving memory of Mahalia and my darling Mother... a die-hard Mahalia Jackson fan! "...God said touch her, in my Name, God said touch her...I rose this morning... I feel like shouting...like singing... like running...! I'll be singing this song (that has been gifted to us) all day! I may not have all the words right, but I know I feel the Spirit in which she sang it... one Spirit! I feel like shouting...Hallelujah!

God is a God of the field and the mountain top! Nowhere we go will we EVER be out of His hand! I just want to thank Him for how He's kept me!

How have I gone the last 20 years without hearing this guy before? Tonight this showed up in my KZfaq sidebar, and as I hadn't heard a male solo version of "How I Got Over" before, I decided to satisfy my curiosity, and am mighty glad I did! Absolutely tremendous, and I'll be searching out more of his videos and recordings.

Thank God that Mahalia's spirit is coming through him. That shows that Mahalia's ledgency still lives. So, praise God with him, and let her spirit continue to be with us.

I normally do not much care for singers who choose to imitate another singer when performing - especially if they are singing a song that was a hallmark of said famous singer's lifetime of singing. I was prepared to roll my eyes when I began listening. I was very wrong. It is very hard to put into words the sort of living spirit that Mahalia Jackson brought to each and every song she sang. She lived her faith and it radiated from her soul, though her throat and on to Jesus! Somehow, Mr. Nelson, in studying the singing of Mahalia Jackson, has tapped into that light and presents it extremely well. Yes, he deliberately takes on every one of her mannerisms and vocal stylings like any good impressionist, but he takes it WAY beyond that by putting his spirit into the song. His first few words sent chills up my spine because they carried the authority and majesty of Mahalia's voice. I have NEVER seen or heard a singer do such justice to another singer. I would love to witness this man in concert, if he is still singing (and I hope he is). God's grace and peace be upon him!

As I listening this song, I know God has always been with me through hard times and good times, now my beloved daughter has gone to glory a month ago, the hardest thing I ever had to endure , go into the church for her Homegoing service, then turn around and go into her apartment knowing she’ll want be living there anymore, packing her belongings, I could still smell her scent on her clothes, God has given me strength to do it All, thank God for your Son that died on Calvary to save us, thank for Fifty years I had with her, I get to keep the love, Bescause my beloved I’ll see you again, Lisa my Sweet Daughter , your mother Juliet, she call me Ms. Daisy

He actually sounds a. LOT like the Late Great Mahalia Jackson! Resting in heaven.

Wow 😳....speechless. He went ALL THE WAY INNNNM! Awesome .

He sounds identical to Mahalia! Love it!

My God, my god....this hits right! I can't thank God enough....my soul wonders how I made it over. Yes God! Thank you Jesus.

The way he imitated her in spirit as a man is amazing

I think Mahalia would be proud! Love this song!

All I can say is what God does, He does in purpose! BLESSED BY THIS VIDEO! My sister recently went home with the lover of her soul! God! She's home! She shared this video shortly before she left this world! Not many I know that truly love God! She did! It showed in who she's was and everything she did! Smiling instead of mourning! Thank you Lord!

Unbelievable!!! This is the first person, I have heard so far, that can sing this song, like Mahalia Jackson,

I thank God for allowing me to hear this Blessed young man sang this Hymn that says everything I want thank God for being so good to me and all of His children%

what a wonderful gift this young man has, he had me thanking God with him

One who appreciates the spirit, must acknowledge this profound voice praising Our Father and Our Lord Jesus. Deeply moving , and inspiring ✌🏿️👌🏾💝😇😍

This song changes my day as soon as I hear it. Depending on how I feel, I'll either cry, or raise my hand to heaven. But when he is done, I'm happy

I'm so blessed to have lived long enough to hear Mahalia Jackson, and hear her again. I think God is trying to tell us something.

Wow he sounds just like Mrs.Jackson.....simply wonderful

I listen to How I Got Over sung by Mr. Nelson every morning walking my pets. Mr. Nelson sings it in the style that I would hear he in my church growing up. It feeds my soul to the fullest! Thank God for that song and Mr. Nelson.

Beautiful, beautiful glory to God.

That is how I made it in the trucks for 51 years listen to my gospel music thank you Lord

omg, this is mahalia reincarnate...what a beautiful gift...God bless you brother you make mahalia proud

I had the pleasure of seeing him almost 20 years ago sing in person. I bought his "tape" which was very good, regret that i lost it within a couple years.

Even after all these years I get overwhelmed by the anointing on this song.

he a blessing - sounding like her. Even God put her in him. GOD not lazy he love the way we bless him with our soulful voices. and especially our music. that moves you - we carry the best rhythm of the music of God. Back in those crazy days. We were once a family of all. That was brought to this country. T stick together. (Now look at us , hating on one another.) Don't let this society take your soul.

Oh my God! This child know he sang this song. I had to look again, I ran, and I had to look again. You know God is good when he can allow you sing that old time spiritual from the soul like this. Close your eyes and listen, can you feel it........

OMG, I closed my eyes and he really sounds like Mahalia Jackson. YOU GO!!!

If it had not been for the LORD on my side I don't know where I'd be. Thank You Lord Jesus 👑 Glory Hallelujah!!! 🙌🙌🙌 To God be the glory for the great things He has done. 🙌🤗😀💞

He's certainly got Mahalia's feel down (whoo!), and goes one better by carrying Mildred Falls' piano accompaniment as well.

Judge not, need more of this even it's word for word! Praise God in ALL things!

How I got over How I got over You know my soul looks back and wonder How I got over (rpt) Soon as I can see Jesus The man that died for me Man that bled and suffered Hung on Calvary I'm gonna thank him For how he brought me I'm gonna thank God For how he taught me Yes, thank my God for how he kept me I'm gonna thank him 'cause He never left me I'm gonna thank God for ol' time religion I'm gonna thank Him for giving me a vision I'm gon' join the Heavenly choir And I'm a-sing and never get tired I'm gonna sing somewhere 'round God's alter And I'm a-shout all my troubles over Lord, we got to thank you Thank you for being so good to me (chorus) I'm gon' wear a di-garment In that New Jerusalem I'm gonna walk the streets of gold In that homeland of the soul I'm gonna view the hosts in white That been traveling day and night Coming up from every nation On their way to the great coronation Coming from the north, south, east, and west On their way to a land of rest Lord, we gonna join the heavenly choir We gon' sing and never get tired Lord, we gon' sing somewhere 'round your alter And we gonna shout all our troubles over Lord, we gotta thank you Thank you for being so good to me Hmmm, I wanna thank you, this morning I wanna thank you, Lord, this morning You know all, all night long You kept your angels watching over me And you told your angels this morning You told your angels, Lord, this morning You said, "Touch her, in my name" You said, "Touch her, in my name" And I rose, I rose this morning Lord, I rose, I rose this morning With the blood, blood running warm All in my veins, Oh Lord Lord, I feel, I feel like running Lord, I feel, I feel like running Lord, you know I feel, feel like running Lord, Lord, I feel, I feel like running Lord, I wanna thank you Thank you, thank you for being So good to me Source: Musixmatch

I love hearing Joshua singing this. I know how we got over. It was all of because God did it. Amen

Amazing, /without looking at the screen, I hear Mahalia Jackson . Amen.

This is the kind of music i was raised listening to as a child, then teenager and now as a grown woman with 2 kids of my own. When my boys hear it they know its time for church. It brings back a lot of good memories.

HALLELUJAH!!!! I feel like singing!!! Thank you so much for sharing this HIGHLY uplifting performance!!!

SHE was in the room! Thank God for being SO good to me! Beautiful!!

Mr. Nelson all I can say is you sang this song. Even Carlton Person could only stand back and listen. I listen to this over and over. You did this one. At first I thought it was Mahalia Jackson.

His tone and conviction is just owning my existence right now. Flat down. My goodness this man can sang! Yes, Lawd!

It"s like Mahalia spirit jumped into him.

Just goes to show what's good for Hali's generation is just as good for this generation . Glooooory!!!
