Meaning & Inspiration
“Let the Church Say Amen” by Marvin Winans is a call-and-response piece for choir and leader, built on the line “God has spoken, so let the church say amen.” The solo opens with the phrase repeated and adds “If you believe the Word, let the whole church say amen,” with a short call to lift hands and thank the Lord.
The choir answers in unison and then in harmony. Between those rounds the leader coaches the congregation to say amen to whatever God says, from the healing of the body to the raising of the dead, and when dreams seem about to die, because God is not a man that He should lie. That recalls Numbers 23:19. The leader also names deacons, mothers, sisters, and brothers.
The special section declares that if God said it, He can change and rearrange a life, and ends by returning to the refrain. The setting is a congregational moment of agreement with God’s word.
