You have to watch this wonderful duet of Tasha Cobbs Leonard and Jennifer Hudson singing 'Amazing Grace' together!
“Amazing grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see”
What an incredible performance from these two talented singers! Tasha Cobbs was on Jennifer Hudson’ show, and Jennifer was asking Tasha how she got started singing Gospel music.
“So I came from a family of singers. Everybody on my mom’s side sings. So my aunts, my cousins, we were made to sing – had to! We called ourselves the Jacksons in Georgia.” she said. “The whole family, we would go from different churches, singing, making up songs.”
Then Tasha shared about when she was 15 years old and started leading crowds at church in worship.
“We started this community choir, and we were singing a Kirk Franklin song. The guy that was supposed to lead the song got in a minor car accident. So everyone was looking at me like, ‘Tasha, you gotta sing.’ And I was like, ‘Oh, I don’t sing in front of people.’ So the song was ‘Now Behold The Lamb,’ and I got up and I sang the entire song,” she said. “ I sang the entire song with my eyes closed, and when I opened my eyes, people were crying, they were in worship. And my parents, we were looking at each other like, ‘This is something special.’”
After watching the video, many people online shared their reaction to the two women singing together.
“Ladies, your gift of song was given to glorify The Creator who endowed you both! There was power that came forth as you both sang. Tears are flowing! Give God praise and glory!” comments one person on YouTube.
“Hallelujah! All I can say is, the world needs to see and hear more of this on TV,” writes another person online.
