If you need a testimony, renowned gospel collective ๐ŸŽ™ The Williams Brothers have a sensational one for you. Following the reverent instrumental introduction of ๐ŸŽต โ€œI Felt A Changeโ€, renowned gospel collective The Williams Brothers impart story about being saved โ€“ accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. This thoughtful and memorable record from their 1990 album, ๐Ÿ’ฟ In This Place [Note: it also appears on their 1999 album, ๐Ÿ’ฟ Still Here] captures and embodies such a spiritual awakening โ€“ a significant change.

After setting up the record, The Brothers assert, โ€œI couldnโ€™t see nothing / I couldnโ€™t see nothing / I felt a change in me.โ€ My, my, my! After establishing this inexplicable change, at least from a logical, realist lens, The William Brothers continue to expound, singing, โ€œSomething got in my hands / Something got in my feet / I just couldnโ€™t sit in my seat!โ€ ย To reiterate, this experience is all about salvation from above ๐Ÿ™Œ, something that is not easy to explain, obvious. Faith is required, period. The Brothers go on to say, โ€œIt felt like fire / That holy ghost fire.โ€ Woo! They furthermore reflect, asserting, โ€œIโ€™ve been changed / The angels in heaven done signed my name / Changedโ€ฆโ€ If you are a believer, you understand what this record entails. The key takeaway is how substantial a relationship with God is โ€“ โ€œJesus is the best thing that ever happened to me!โ€
