Clark Sisters, The - A Praying Spirit Lyrics
Lord, give a praying spirit
A praying spirit
Lord, help me to say yes
Yes, yes Lord [4x]
A praying spirit in every way
A praying spirit so that I might say
I want a praying spirit
Lest I faint, oh
(Lest when I pray give me what say) [6x]
Yes yes yes yes Lord [4x]
Yes yes Lord [9x]
[Repeat til fade]

Clark Sisters, The A Praying Spirit Comments
"ATTENTION VEIWERS"....Apostle Denise Clark- Bradford....has clarified this with me...That it is her younger sister Karen singing lead...I thought it was her as well for the longest time but she did Clarify it...God Bless...✌😇🙌🙏
Just heard this song for the first time and I'm in tears.
Please don’t worry let me ..
woah kenny (!)
I love this. I'm playing it here at my desk at work... Jacky's Tenor ' Yeaaaaaaaaaaa " resonates in my soul. Can't wait for the Bio Pic
Twinkie sings the tenor note
I personally enjoy this song played at 1.25x speed.
I'm astounded by that organ part that kicks in at 3:11... so beautiful
Twinkie is a monster on organ
WOAH KENNY
Sang it KAREN. Especially at the end with the famous runs. Just 17.
Yes starting at 4:55 she's definitely blessed with those anointed vocals ❤🎤🎶 that end part.
Man such a beautiful song. WOAH Kenny!
Woah Kenny!!
Absolutely my favorite song of theirs
Just discovered this song !!!! I love it!!!
Michael Crittendon Jr I have the Album!
Yvonne Foley I need to find it I love it!!!
One of my FAVORITE songs by The Clark Sisters
Several years later this song is still anointed and ministers edification...we all need a "praying spirit!" God bless the Clark sisters!
777 KEY! & KENNYBEATS
omg amazing thats how i got here, that flip was super tuff. WOAH KENNYYY.
Yerrrrr
I loveeeee this song!!!!
Detroit has the best when it comes to gospel music and singers in the World. Let the Church say Amen .
You know, I seriously think this true...The Clark Sisters, The Winans, The Abneys, The DeBarges,..........etc 🙌
PLEASE DONT WORRY LET ME
Self defense, no wrestliiiiing
Woke up with this song on my mind and I knew it would be on YouTube! What a memory of the times we had back in the day!🎤❤️
I love Twinkie's piano licks on this
I love denise voice on these records with her sisters
Is that Denise sanging.sound like it,but Karen twi,and Denise sound so much alike.
that is not Karen that is Denise
Definitely Karen 😂
Denise and Karen do sound alot at times especially back when she was singing You should hear her sing steal away to Jesus then you will hear more strongly.
No that's 17 year old Karen; in the beginning she did sound like her eldest sister though. Denise sings lead on the title track though. Denise's vocals weren't that powerful lol
That's all Karen. Every time they do the song live, Karen sings it.
@timmy841212 I think your entitled to have your opinion because
that's not absolutely truth atall denise can sing she blended well. she is drive of the Clark sister group .
Lord Jesus, give me a praying Spirit in Jesus' holy name!
Guru you've done it again with Madame Mattie Moss Clark and girls who captivated with an anointed and unique music and vocal ministry. This is a rare piece, the original rendition and recording of this piece which great. Thanks for posting .
You're welcome. I love the original version too.
I love the good old days when you didn't mind the mistakes on a take.. Makes the listening experience even more authentic.
I think the UNAC 5 was before this one, the choir version! Although this is an original of the sisters singing it which I like better than the choir one
shadon74 I think UNAC 5 was 79. The UNAC before this came out is the one with the Original "Of My People" and "The Will of God". The year before this.
@newcreature2011 Yeah that live version was in 79. On that one, it was just Karen, Denise, Twinkie and Mattie (Dorinda was apparently sick and Jacky was looking after her).
@timmy841212 That's the one! Just heard it not too long ago! Dr. Clark was holding down that alto!
Oh yes Indeed Thank you lord!
This sounds like Oh my soul loves jesus
Twinkie had funk on her. If i was a good singer i would go to her now and be like can you make me some music like you did back then
I love these ladies!!!!
"Lord when I pray...." what now? Is it "give me Lord to say" (< well that doesn't make sense :T) "hear me Lord today", "give me more to say" "some' some' some' say" LOL! Seriously, somebody help me out please. What are they saying??? I even put on headphones and I still don't understand. I'm tired of singing it wrong. :(
SoulfulChaos lord when I pray give what to say
Jordan Wynne Thank you! 😄
It's Lord when I pray give me words to say
😂😂😭😭💀💀 DIS COMMENT GOT ME LAUGHING FR FR
twinkie wrote scripture songs just like her mom
DeJaiz Moe yes she did
the music is so live
Yes Twinkie was way ahead of her time and now only the real old gospel artists give her the credit she deserves. Not only did she have the best voice back then she also taught and ushered in a new gospel era to her sisters and the world. Her voice was like honey poured over the spirit but now Karen gets so much attention doing all the things she did back in the 60's. Such a humbling life
Why does Karen sound like evelyn champagne king on here tho?? lol
clark sisters without doubt were innovators of my time. however twinkie and most of their sisters were little girls in the 60s. i met them back then when when they came to town with their mother. she called my cousin the late rev. lester mcgee her god son. he was a musical director, pastor, promoter, sunday school so and so, and worked with mother clark at the cogic convocations. the clark sisters really came into their own in the late 70s and through out the 80s. yes elbernita "twankie" clark is the unsung genius of the group, and a beautiful spirit as well.
CJ B. no that's all karen singing, she did sound like Denise here abit but karen was just coming into her voice at the time that's why she sounded a little nasally and whiny still but you can tell her voice was maturing and blossoming
YES LORD. HAVE YOUR WAY INMY LIFE LORD
This reminds me of "Speak Lord!" & "Now is the Time!" GOD have mercy on US all... #TCS
The Clark sisters let God use them to bring a newer sound together way before the music was tuned all the way up... WOW!!! Okay now i am truly convinced... they are #1 on my list
No wonder where the 90s & early 2000s got it from and even in this time era fr fr
