Check out this powerful performance of ‘Fill My Cup’ by The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. Under the direction of Carol Cymbala, the choir gives a stunning performance of the song made famous by Andrew Ripp. The lyrics, the music, and the smiles will leave your heart and cup full!
The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, according to its website, began with only nine members meeting in a “rundown building in a difficult area.” Today, however, the Grammy Award-winning choir spreads the gospel through song from the inner city of New York to across the United States and overseas.
Here, they sing on a stage in a fabulous auditorium in front of a gorgeous misty-mountain backdrop, but it’s not the splendor of the building or the mountain scene that captures our attention. It is the glorious sound of their voices raised in praise to God. It’s the joy in their faces, and they sing of His goodness!
Clapping, swaying, singing, and smiling, the talented choir members—representing “all ethnic and national origins”—share their belief in Jesus Christ and communicate that shared purpose beautifully!
Thad Cockrell originally wrote and recorded ‘Fill My Cup.’ However, when Thad’s good friend Andrew Ripp suggested revising the original and recording it himself, Thad enthusiastically helped with the rewrite. Andrew Ripp’s 2022 version became a chart-topper.
Andrew wrote, “In the midst of a breakthrough, it’s easy to notice that our ‘cup is being filled.’ But when we’re waiting between the prayer and the answer, it’s just as easy for it to feel empty.”
When we ask God to fill our cups, restore our souls, and provide the strength we need, He hears us. Just as these spirit-filled musicians lift their hands skyward, when we send our prayers His way, he delivers!
Commenters from the choir’s home church, The Brooklyn Tabernacle, and from other countries share their admiration for the choir’s performance. They use words like “strong anointing” and “spiritual refreshment.” Keep doing what you’re doing, Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir! The world needs your voices!
