it should be noted this song was a Regular “devotional” period song in the black church since 1972… The Tonyies changed some of the lyrics but the main part of the song, the “I don’t know what you come to do” and the “I come to clap my hands, I come stop stomp my feet” have been a staple of the black church long before House Party 2
