This is a classic clip of the late Rev. Ernest Davis Jr.'s Wilmington Chester Mass Choir sing "Ride On King Jesus" back in 1988. This was recorded by a local Philly TV station for an annual show called "Gospel Extravaganza".

Hearing this choir singing this hymn gets me high every single time no matter what is going on in my life. Nobody can top them. HALLELUJAH!!

WOW! I thought I would never see this again. I remember as a 11 year old watching this program on WHYY Channel 12 in Philadelphia. The program had Hezekiah Walker and an early version of the Love Fellowship Crusade Choir and a few other local groups who sang as well. That was great music then and great music now. Bring back the days...

Thank you so very much for posting, I was just saying to my mom and sister I would like to see a video with Reverend Davis before his last video recording. To GOD be the glory he gave his best until the end on this side. Rest well man of GOD you are missed. The Williams family.

Hey FreLi77...thank you so much for posting Ernie and WCMC. From day one when I saw them in concert there was a renewed appreciation for the Gospel message set to music. Ernie had work very closely with a workshop choir I used to sing with. He had become my favorite director of all time. I loved his energy and seriousness. I can boast that I have every release of WCMC. Thank you for posting these JEWELS. God bless you!!!!

This is a Great song, No matter how it's Presented. I've heard it Sung by " Half Asleep choirs & Very excited choirs, Both have their place. Scripture says: Make a JOYFULL Noise unto the Lord. Please don't be afraid to show Some Excitement when singing to the Lord.

@azizip17113 жыл бұрын
@Dewkoh, the choir combined two other African American spirituals with "Ride On King Jesus". Those songs are "In That Great Gettin Up Morning" & "Ain't That Good News". I featured this choir in my pancocojams blog post "The Directing Styles Of African American Gospel Choir Directors". That post also features a video of In HIS Presence Choir singing another rendition of this song, & 1 video of Rev. James Cleveland, the Chicago Mass Choir singing other songs, Google that title. Peace!

So again you're saying the MUSIC takes precedence OVER the lyrics, praise, and worship? So I'm assuming by your standards when the music stops, the praise stops too. This is why "church dominations" have no place in the building of God's kingdom.
@waymondsdaughter215 жыл бұрын
I understand the "spirit of excellence" however when people become so focused on the music then their praise and worship becomes hendered. If it's all about the music then let it stant as an instrumental.

the organ on there sounds real daul, it does not sound good, they should had a B3 Hammond organ or C3 hammond organ.
