J.J. Hairston & Youthful Praise

JJ is a native of Brooklyn, NY, where he attended Mt. Sinai Cathedral, C.O.G.I.C. where his grandfather, Bishop Clarence Sexton Sr., was the Pastor. However, his love for gospel music began at his current church when his friend, Shawn Brown, asked him to come to choir rehearsal. It was then that James gave his heart, as well as his voice, talent, and his feet to the Lord. Inspired by the writing ability of his friend Shawn and his pastor, Bishop White, James began writing his own songs such as "He is the Spirit" and "Garment of Praise." Since then, James has been called upon to write and direct for many well-known artists.

LYRICS:

After This

Chorus1

There will be glory after this; There will be victory after this

God will turn it around, he will bring you out

There will be glory after this

Chorus2

There will be glory after this; There will be victory after this

God will move for you, give him the praise he’s due

There will be glory after this

Verse1

God will move in your situation

He will heal when the doctor’s give you up

He provides in the midst of recession

Have faith in him, he’ll come through

Chorus2

Verse2

God specializes in things impossible

He loves to move when all hope is lost

Just so he can show himself strong in your behalf

Don’t give up, he’ll come through for you

Chorus2

There will be a praise after this; There will be joy after this

There’ll be a testimony after this; There’ll be glory after this
