If You Will Only Believe, by the Reverend Claude Jeter and the Swan Silvertones

Thanks to ArchieB9876

In January I sat with a friend and watched the video song above by the Silvertones, one of her favorite singing groups. We both knew that my friend's long battle with cancer was nearing its end. After the song was over,she said "So, tell me, what is that supposed to mean? Are you trying to tell me that if I would only believe, my cancer would go away?" We both knew it wouldn't.

I told her what I could, and we both knew I was trying very hard. She watched me carefully, and knew I believed it: that you just don't know what lies ahead, on the other side. It could be far more amazing than anything you've ever hoped for, far more wonderful than anything you thought possible. There's world upon world, world within world, music, science, math, art, earth, the sun, the moon, the stars, into eternity. "In my father's house are many mansions" (John 14:2), world without end, Amen. You could fly to God and sing in the heavenly choir, and dwell in the communion of saints.You could be with your loved ones forever, lifetime after lifetime, here there and everywhere in the universe, beyond time and space as we know it. All things are possible, if you will only believe.

The Swan Silvertones with the Reverend Claude Jeter and Louis Johnson

All things are possible if you will only believe. Hear it told as you've never heard it before- get ready to slow down! I thank dear Nancy for turning me on to the Swan Silvertones. Watch and listen to this all the way through, and try to imagine how much better the world would be if everyone could express their faith with this kind of loving harmony. People just don't sing like this anymore! I wonder why. Cut and paste- All Things Are Possible if You Will Only Believe:
