    I just love the Clark sister's. I really enjoy watching them sing live. I think that they sing so pretty and beautiful. It gives me chills and I feel tingles all through my body when I listen to them sing. They have a gift that touches your soul. I hope to meet them one day. Gospel Royalty they are. I love you Clark sister's.

    Donald Lawrence is a brilliant minister of music 🎶 the choir sounds like one voice

  3. M.... C....

    I like when it's just her voice over a piano/organ. No bass no beats, just her and them keys.

  4. D.... G....

    One of my favorite artists. Her and Donald Lawrence. I played another hole in this CD. After this song, I didn’t want to stay in the YouTube streets. I wanted to just stay right there. Thanks for sharing. Let’s stay connected and grow together

    I Really Love Karen Klark Fron 1981.... I will keep it that way or at least Gods Wealth That way.... Amen

  24. G.... ....

    This song taught me “to honor [God’s] Sweetness.” Being kind to others intentionally in spite of their actions or reactions has helped me reach a new place in God and given me a ministry that has brought forth fruit for The Kingdom of Christ. Thank you, Sis. Karen for allowing God to speak through you. Many blessings!

  31. u.... ....

    Such a beautiful inspiring prayer. I appreciate Karen singing w/her eyes closed to the Lord. This was certainly more than just a performance. The Sincerity made it Perfection. A great blessing indeed after ALL these years!

  32. J.... T....

    Dorindas face at 5:30 is priceless

  33. j.... b....

  35. X.... S....

    Twinkie wrote the mess out of this song....the words are so meaningful

    X.... S....

    XMan Smith oh alright just making sure. Thank you!

    X.... S....

    XMan Smith and after I had commented I was going through my playlist and realized the Clark sisters sang it with Denise Clark it just was a little bit of a faster tempo🤦‍♀️But now I know it's the same song

    X.... S....

    Alceda Neal Anytime! I love these ladies and their music!

    X.... S....

    Twinkie wrote Praying Spirit but not Safest Place, Bishop Richard “Mr. Clean” White wrote Safest Place. Twinkie says it in that interview

    X.... S....

    @Alceda Neal FYI - it wouldn't matter if the song was written during their time pursuing solo careers. They have always performed each others' songs at any time. I especially love how versatile they are that even in their classics, you never know whose going to sing lead on certain parts or the entire song.

  36. S.... ....

    Beautiful.

    S.... ....

    Stephon Jackson I see you everywhere lol

    S.... ....

    Stephon period
