Shirley Caesar, I Remember Mama [📷: Word Entertainment]“Jesus is everywhere / Jesus really cares.” Yes, yes, YES 👏! Say that, 🎙 Shirley Caesar! On her 1989 album, 💿 I Remember Mama, Caesar, and her accompanying choir uplift on 🎵 “Jesus Is Everywhere”.  In the encouraging, spirited chorus, the choir continues singing, “No matter what you’re going through / He’ll fix it up for you / For he knows just what to do.” That is a good word right there 🙌!

Caesar touts the mercifulness of Almighty God and the fact that he’s always right on time! Another highlight occurs in the second verse: “Don’t depend on no one else / You talk to Jesus for yourself / And I know, he’ll answer your prayers.”  Once more, Caesar highlights that faith piece, and having a conversation with God – a relationship if you will.  Ultimately, 🎵 “Jesus Is Everywhere” is epic, speaking to the excellence and omniscience of J-E-S-U-S.  Now that’s a heavenly 😇 Music Lift 🎶 🏋!!!
