Fred Hammond / Commissioned


Remember when Marvin Sapp was a member of Commissioned? It was from 1991-1996. Here is Commissioned with a favorite hymn of mine, along with the lyrics below:
1. ’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His Word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
And to know, “Thus saith the Lord!”
* Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er;
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
Oh, for grace to trust Him more!
2. Oh, how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood;
And in simple faith to plunge me
’Neath the healing, cleansing flood!
3. Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just from sin and self to cease;
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest, and joy and peace.
4. I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.

Award-winning gospel singer Walter Hawkins dies



RIPON, Calif. — Walter Hawkins, a Grammy Award-winning gospel singer, composer and pastor from Oakland, died Sunday. He was 61.

Hawkins, who was battling pancreatic cancer, passed away at his home in Ripon, Calif., his older brother Edwin Hawkins said.

"Today, I lost my brother, my pastor, and my best friend," said Edwin Hawkins. "Bishop Hawkins suffered bravely but now he will suffer no more and he will be greatly missed."

Born in Oakland, Hawkins studied for his divinity degree at the University of California, Berkeley.

While at the university, he recorded his first album titled "Do Your Best" in 1972.

The next year, Hawkins became a pastor and founded the Love Center Church in Oakland, where he also formed a choir.

Michael Jackson Man In The Mirror (Moonwalker Version)



June 25, 2009: Today, June 25, 2010, is the first anniversary of Michael's demise. Who would have thought it two years ago? Except for his music, it's a sad memory like a sweet smelling vapor.

This From Our Lips Straight To The Heart of God!



There is something about a child's innocence, purity and openness that is compelling because it speaks to the heart of God. Notice how this child is all of that and spiritual, too! At the end of the prayer he is aware enough to open his hand and let the prayer fly to God, as if he is saying to the universe, "So be it!" --Thanks to Nancy Smith, a Facebook friend.
