The dynamic music choir J.J. Hairston & Youthful Praise performs its new Top 40 radio smash “Bless Me” on TBN’s primetime program “Praise the Lord” this Tuesday, September 2, 2014 @ 10:00 P.M. EST.
The program was recorded this past week with the group singing four songs to a capacity studio audience that was up on its feet – lost in an atmosphere of sincere worship and electrifying praise – whenever they hit the stage.
Two of the songs – “It Pushed Me” and “Bless Me” are highlighted on J.J. Hairston & Youthful Praise’s forthcoming 7th CD “I See Victory” (Light Records) that hits retail and online stores everywhere on October 28th.
Pastor Donnie McClurkin joins J.J. Hairston & Youthful Praise on the recorded version of the rousing conversation with God entitled “Bless Me.” However, the gifted vocalist Greg Kirkland Jr. performs the song with the ensemble on the TBN broadcast. The riveting two-hour program was hosted by Pastor Frank Santora who conducted compelling interviews with baseball legend Darryl Strawberry and his wife Tracy; New York Yankees executive Roy Negron; and Randy LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins who discussed an upcoming “Left Behind“ film starring Nicolas Cage. Pastor Jamal Bryant closed the program with a soul-stirring sermon.
For over a dozen years, Youthful Praise has been one of the most popular contemporary gospel choirs in the USA. Their hit songs such as “After This,” “Lord of All,” “Resting on His Promise” and “Incredible God, Incredible Praise” have served as the soundtrack to the lives of scores of Millennial-age churchgoers.
The group has appeared on national television programs such as “Good Morning America,” BET’s “Celebration of Gospel,” “Conan O’Brien,” BET’s “Lift Every Voice,” “Lady Gaga & The Muppets Holliday Spectacular” and BET’s “Sunday Best.”
