I thought I was going to have to pick him up off the ground.

I have seen funerals though where they flat just had church..shouting, dancing and all. I never did understand that exactly. I did feel a beautiful spirit at my dad's, and others, but to have a hoe down??

I never understood the phrase "had church!".

as BeBe Winans titled one of his recordings "Cherch" the whole nine yards, you know... shouting, dancing and everything pentecostals do at "Cherch"
