    Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
    Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
    Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

    It is currently 6:40 AM in Buffalo New York. I've had the pleasure of playing Mahalia Jackson in Mahalia The Musical, She has inspired me my entire life. I discovered her in my life at the rightful age of six, in the movie Imitation of Life singing Precious Lord.The older I get the more inspirational she becomes to me. I am still singing Mahalia's music. At 68 years I just performed on Saturday, Didn't it Rain and A City called Heaven. Thank you Hailey for all the joy you've brought to my life 💖💖🤎

    If Mahalia Jackson had crossed over into popular music she would be a household name. Her voice, her range she had it all, but she stayed true to her devotion to God and simply wouldn't do it. I have loved her for many years.

      These two songs are from the George Gershwin Broadway musical Porgyand Bess.Broadway is as secular as you can get.George Gershwin was a Jew,and used the songs in this musical to lead people away from Jesus.Gershwin's song from Porgy and Bess, "Aint Necessarily So" claims"ain't necessarily so,the words that you're liable to read in the Bible,ain't necessarily so".This line is sung repeatedly,including it's performance by beloved Louis Armstrong with Ella Fitzgerald.This kind of evil leading us away from God has got the Cross removed from American schools,just like the Jew Hitler did in Germany.Now look at the mess we're in with illiteracy,drugs,crime,and girls having babies with multiple deadbeat dads.Your comment seems way off base,as Mahalia Jackson was completely renowned.If she wasn't,she wouldn't have been on TV with so many films of her and global performances.

      Put the Cross back in the schools.Funny how people want to ban our protection from guns,when they should be banning TV,movies,and video games that promote torture,violence,terror,blood and gore,vampirism,satanism, fornication and sodomy,and the demonic,instead of the Holy and Pure Creator,God who is love,and our Savior Jesus,who said to turn away from sin.

      i used to love euphoria till season one...once it got tik tok famous it really got ruined. I remember when i would watch the first ever episodes and think how magical that show was, but it's very unfortunate cause i heard most of the cast left (and i still do think that it was mostly influenced by tik tok where everyone would find something to cancel someone's entire job career, which is really sad that most people have that kind of mindset)

    My grandmother frequently played Mahalias' music on her portable Zenith record player. I would sing along with her and my grandmother. I thought I was one little soulful white girl at the age of 5. Her voice is timeless; I understand why Elvis used to listen to her music for hours. She's now singing to her Heavenly Father.

    Summertime,
    And the living is easy,
    Fish're juping,
    And the cotton is high,
    Your daddy's rich
    And your mummy is good lookin'
    So hush little baby
    Don't you cry,
    One of these mornings
    You're going to rise up singing,
    You're gonna spread your wings,
    Take to the sky,
    But till that morning,
    Nothing will harm you,
    With daddy and mummy,
    They be standing by,
    Sometime I feel,
    Like a motherless child,
    Sometime I feel,
    Like a motherless child,
    Sometime I feel,
    Like a motherless child,
    Just alone,
    Long way,
    From my home,
    Alone,
    Just alone,
    From my home,
    Humhumhumhumhum
    Just along way from home
