The Christmas season is around the corner, and so many people have already put on the Christmas music. This Jennifer Hudson and Kirk Franklin ‘Silver and Gold’ duet will give you chills.
Jennifer and Kirk have a sweet conversation at the piano. She is asking him about his history in music, from the early days of learning the basics of piano and then teaching himself to play more and more by ear. She asks him to sing Silver and Gold with her because she absolutely loves it. Kirk Franklin tells Jennifer that he needs the backup choir, too, and invites the audience to join in with them. The crowd cheers and stands up to join in the celebration.
Kirk tells the crowd that they will sing, “Silver and gold, silver and gold, I’d rather have Jesus than silver and gold.” Before she begins to sing, Jennifer says that she feels like she is at church. As she starts to sing, you will be immediately focused on her powerhouse vocals.
As the audience joins in, there are phenomenal harmonies within the audience. Jennifer brings in such flair, and Kirk adds a flavor and excitement that only he can! Jennifer begins to preach that she doesn’t need the things of this world. She says that she knows the Lord will answer.
The entire show just goes straight to church in this video. It is exciting to see everyone with smiles on their faces and the joy of the Lord coming out in song. At the end, they cheer and clap to celebrate the moment that they had with the incredible artists leading them.
“Don’t store treasures for yourselves here on earth where moths and rust will destroy them and thieves can break in and steal them. But store your treasures in heaven where they cannot be destroyed by moths or rust and where thieves cannot break in and steal them. Your heart will be where your treasure is. Matthew 6:19-21
