"Give Me Jesus" | Tommy Walker (from Generation Hymns 3)

To quote Eileen Guenther [Professor of Church Music at Wesley Theological Seminary] “Spirituals affirm a complete trust in God to make right in the next world what was done wrong in this world.” She also describes Spirituals as a powerful and beautiful music form which communicates both sorrow and hope. The Spiritual/hymn, “Give Me Jesus,” is no exception. I am always so moved by how it both reminds me of the meaninglessness of this world while simultaneously calling me to a surrendered life in Christ. My added vamp is simply a way of extending the blessing to this wonderful song!   This song features my daughter Eileen Walker, Jovaun Woods, and Linda McCrary who all sang so beautifully!
