Thanks for your post. I had never heard that song, but I looked it up and found that Nina Simone also recorded it (she was one of my favorites, back in the day):

I heard a recording of that a long time ago on an obscure satellite station, it was obviously a black congregation somewhere and they had arranged it rather nicely with different sections doing different parts, it was done with a lot of feeling and I thought it rather catchy.

And I really like that style of gospel singing in general so I thought it worthwhile to share in this thread. I found the closest thing I could to what I heard before, and there you have it.

I thought what sounds like a young men's section is this piece was a little weak but all in all not bad, the lead singer really belted it out in style.
