When Twinkie got that mic. She heard something completely different than everyone else. What a special Gift

Loved twinkie singing on "Im Going Away" 6:01 .....she was looking back like "come get this mic" lol.... RIP WALTER

Walter Hawkins and Twinkie were geniuses and way ahead of their time. I really used to hear these songs on the radio with regular slow jams as a child! Especially you brought the sunshine and be grateful!

I love Denise’s clap!!

That smile shared by Lynette, Dorinda, and Shirley (Caesar) while Twinkie sang at the end. I’m sure they were all thinking what we think as we watch this video. I wish I could’ve experienced this concert in person. All that talent and anointing on one stage, wow. 🥰

Jackie’s face while watching her younger sister sing is me every time!!!

Karen gets me every time. That raw spirit unleashed. Rev. Hawkins is a true trailblazer!

I love how excited niecy got when Twinkie started sing ❤️❤️

The world was blessed with the gifts of Walter Hawkins. He let God bring forth so many beautiful works through him. He will never be forgotten.

Childhood memories. The Hawkins Family was the deal. I love them.

I could watch this 1,000 times and never get tired of it!

I've always appreciated the Hawkins family and the level of sophistication they brought to gospel music.

Walter Hawkins was born to SING, YES HE WAS

The Clarke sisters also joined Joe Ligon and Shirley Ceasar at the end. Absolutely beautiful. Inspired and gifted that's what Walter was. Sure do miss him but his music lives on!!!

Denise cracks me up how she was clapping she was happy Awesome job Karen wheeew

This is a prime example of how you minister in song and not just sing a song. Newcomers have lacked the purity, spirituality and humbleness of delivery within the song. They don't say Jesus, mostly to catch broad audiences, which on one hand reaches more individuals, yet they are lacking that full gospel goodness that many of us brought up on. These are the songs that you will remember forever and many will be remembered and honoured to songs such as this...would you not consider a song like this for your loved one, something your loved one really drew into, something you can relate to....

The man in the brown suit is Joe Ligon; he's the lead singer of the Mighty Clouds of Joy.

If only I could of lived at this time among the greatest people of faith. I was born but I live now when no one has faith! Praise be to God 🙏💫 always and forever,! I'm going away soon!

LOOK AT TREMAINE HAWKINS BACK THERE LOOKING GORGEOUS AS EVER ALSO CAN SING HER HEART OUT TOO💯💯💯💯💯 #SOSOUNDERRATED

ALLLLL THESE GREATS ON ONE STAGE!! AMAZING!!

I love Walter Hawkins's music; he is my favorite male gospel artist

Don't allow anyone to steal your joy of praise with this song!!!!

Jackie looked amazed at Karen's voice at 4:20.

RIP Pastor Hawkins. Thanks for being such an influence on me in Gospel Music! See you on the other side! :)

I love the spontaneity! The unity is how the body of Christ is supposed to be. Love this! Thank you Bishop Walter L. Hawkins. Rest peacefully.

Wow! It was the style of gospel music the Hawkins introduced to the world I believe in 1966 with there first album, "Joy, Joy", that inspired me to learn the piano and organ. Such a tremendous inspiration to me over the years. Now I'm Director of Music of one of the top choirs in VA. Rest in Peace Bishop Walter Hawkins.

The amazing thing is...he sounded as good during his last few days as he did in the beginning! Simply awesome. I'm thankful I was old enough to enjoy, be blessed, and appreciate the beginning to the end; and still currently be blessed by his music.

Lol! I never noticed how Twinkie signaled for Walter to come take the mic back @06:39 🤣

I LOVE THIS SONG ,I AM GOING AWAY TOO SEE JESUS!

What a legend! Your music lives on though you're gone. You've gone to THAT PLACE!

Lord have mercy! The Clark sisters I didn't noticed until one grabbed the mic "Praise God:

We've all cried to good, Holy sanctified music! Don't question it... just let the anointing flow!

This brings back childhood memories. I grew up on gospel music and moments like this. May God continue to bless the Hawkins family and all of you who are apart of this great heritage known as Gospel Music!

his PHENOMENAL & ANOINTED impact on gospel and its listeners will be missed!!! Praying for the Hawkins family that GOD WILL wipe away every tear, and HEAL your broken hearts!

Those pink dresses and his hair make me smile...haha...the time period is clearly evident in this video. I know you are Resting in Love Bishop Walter Hawkins thank for sharing you God given and Divine talent...:-)

That's what I call singing. The Hawkins Family, the Clark Sisters, & Shirley Ceasar all on the same stage. This is the type of singing I grew up listening to plus the Winan family!

Gotta say thank you Lord for Walter Hawkins and his beautiful gift of song and encouragement! This is really touching my heart.

I wasn't even thought of when this song came out, and I'm feeling this song with an ultimate passion. UNBELIEVABLE! GOD IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!

Wow!!!! Classic !!! Nice post!!!

Awesome group and a class act...

I love this song and I think that it is hilarious that Walter Hawkins left after he gave Twinkie the mike. She was looking for him and he was moving around in the back of the people seemed like he was doing on purpose.

They all tore it up. im glad to see shirleys part on this. Twinkie brought it home!!! She was looking for walter, like where u at?? LOL

Love me some Hawkins music‼️♥️

This is the greatest gospel song ever recorded!!!

I'm going away some day to be with the Lord Jesus the Christ !!!!!

Those Clark Sister's have such Sweet Spirits.

RIP Walter Hawkins.... you are now part of that heavenly choir....

this man was a genius..Im so thankful for the impact he had on gospel music. He is mow in the arms of Jesus just like he proclaimed in this phenomonal song. May he rest in peace.

Super-spirit filled singers brough togther. When that happens, you know the spirit dwells within. Some would say: "what if there's another concert somehere?" That's the beauty of the Spiritt, it's not fixed ! It can encompasss us al.

Never thought Bishop Walter Hawkins would "Go Away" SO soon...RIP & prayers are offered to your Family at this time...GREAT clip here of an omitted song from the film GOSPEL from the early 1980's...

Prophetic! I love you for the worship and praise you have given me. RIP Bishop Hawkins.

Glory Glory Glory I soooooooo love and adore this song

Love this song

I tell ya, some stuff in life will NEVER get old.

justintyme My mother in law ordered this awesome concert on VHS in the late 80's. I was in my early 20's. All the groups were anointed and up lifting. This song helped me get through many of my loved ones going away! Soon and very Soon! We are going to See The KING!!

Twinkie Sang Guh Sang

man what sentiment, i remember those days like it was yesterday. i knew many of these people personally back then i am contemporary with them. those were the good old. sherly ceaser in many ways seems to age backwards. i remember she looked like a grandma back then now shes well different. young people enjoy your youth and one another in it hold on to it as long as you can. apostle e.w. wilcots once told me the same thing one day you will wake up and that magic will be gone you will just be old!

sing Twinkie!

Walter had a voice of an ANGEL!!!!!!!!

I so love this song! It makes me want to cry listening to this song! I remember listening to this song as a little girl (born in '81; thanks Mom!). My mom had this album, the vinyl album (I told you I was born in the 80's)....hey, look at Shirley Caesar!!

LOVE THIS SONG

Love that hair

Love those late 70s and early 80s hot comb roller set curls. Yo momma auntie and granny had it. Around 86 you saw them asymmetrical cuts

this is the one. I walk around humming it often. They really paved the way for us with a sound and a quality that was life changing.

The Hawkins Fam always helped me through those tough times as a "baby Christian" (and still do)....they don't make em' like this anymore.

I remember this song be sang in church. I smile and cried when I heard it on here. I was younger than 7 then and now 34. Such an impact on my life. GOD is good.

Tears run down my face and all i can say is thank you LORD!!!!!!

My Very Best Too You - You & Your Music Will Live On Forever - RIP Brother...

I recently lost my sister and this song brought condolence to me. May Bishop Hawkins rest in peace.

Sang so Beautifully... One of the greatest Gospel songs of all time! Be Blessed, believe God, believe Him........................

Sang Twinkie!

love this song...sung it at a funeral and i barely got thru it...R.I.P. BISHOP WALTER HAWKINS

I love the vamp ( special part ending ) on this song they could have done that even longer great spiritual song. Walter has always and will continue to be one of my favorite artist. Thanxs for posting this.

Let the holy spirit soar throughout the universe holy holy jesus is the christ. Amann

I am so thankful that I got a chance to enjoy this family in concert several times. May God be with his family. Pastor Hawkins you will always be in my heart.

Bishop Walter has left so much rich music for us. He now is where he sang so much about going..God Bless Him. I miss him already..I am saddened, but yet I know he is happy where he is. I will see him one day !

I love you Walter I never met you but I miss you, no one and I mean no one can sing Marvelous like you. So long until I finally get to meet you at the throne of Jesus where we both will praise and give him the glory. Amen

RIP Cicely Tyson 2021 😭😭 I hope you singing this song!!

that is so cool that the clark sisters were apart of this too.. such talent combined together is sooooo great..

The best Gospel music singer....R.I.P. Bishop Walter Hawkins!

I play this CD almost every morning and have for about a year, now. Never get tired of it and his other music. One of God's choir directors. How blessed we are to have the experience. Something to look forward to.

So much greatness on stage! I wish I coulda been a couple months earlier just to have been alive to get an opportunity to go there.

... then will I fly away and be at rest. Pslams 55:6 God Bless you Bishop Hawkins, your gift will live on forever. Take your well deserved rest... We'll meet again in the morning.

I love this song !!!

God blessed us with your divine messages and angelic voice for many years. Thank you God and Thank you Bishop Hawkins. Rest in Peace. I'll always remember and love you.

I can't get this song out of my head. I still like it.

I rememeber going to church on my own in jr. high & enjoyed it. Back then in the 70's the Hawkins family was the sound. Since i back slid & hear what they call gospel is a big gap for me. I missed that era of gospel, & i struggle to come back to God. But i'm so glad he's on my mind & heart now. I wish i could hear from God, & i will strive to hear his voice.

Thank you Mr Hawkins, this song really helped me when my mom passed in 08. She used to always play you when i was growing up. Thank you for all the great work you left behind.

I love this song! It came out years before i was born, my mom grew up listening to this song.. It makes me feel happy.. Its a beautiful song..

Because of this movie,i love gospel music.

Jacky's face😂😂😂😂 she was proud of the baby Denise started clapping too😩😩😩💛❤

"Soon and very soon we are going to see the King"...oh my, none like the incomparable Hawkins!

rip Bishop, loved all your music

One of the most annointed song writers/Gospel singers in ministry. Classic

my mom used to make us watch thisVCR tape every evening after school!! it also had the Clark sisters on it ,and in 2009 I think she still has this tape!!!!!!!!! gotta look for it today.
