“The Great I Am”
Donnie McClurkin
From the Verity Records CD We All Are One (Live in Detroit) – 2009

Donnie McClurkin laces up his shouting shoes and leads his energetic vocalists and the live audience in Detroit through a rollicking, hand-clapping old-school sounding praise workout that is actually one of his own compositions, “The Great I Am.”

The song’s swinging tempo and the brisk call-and-response between McClurkin and his vocalists give you the feeling of being present during a Pentecostal worship service when the Holy Ghost enters the sanctuary.
