Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers - I Almost Let Go (Lyric Video)

Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers' song I Almost Let Go is a modern gospel testimony about reaching the edge of despair, then being held up by God's mercy. I Almost Let Go song speaks directly to emotional exhaustion, about feeling bound by problems, weighed down by depression, and close to giving up before turning into a powerful declaration of survival: "God kept me." Musically it has the force of a church altar call moment by slow-building, emotional intensity and communal interaction, moving from private pain into a choir backed affirmation of grace. The recording originally appeared on Carr's 2000 live album Awesome Wonder, with lead vocals handled by Sherron Bennett and Tisa Willis, and I Almost Let Go writing by Kurt Carr. Kurt Carr is also known for popular gospel songs such as For Every Mountain, In the Sanctuary and God Blocked It, with his work often describing as modern day hymns.
