Can someone tell me who sings this song?

I first heard this song years ago off a cassette tape at an ALJC camp meeting, and it was some black lady singing it, but I do not know who sang this originally....weather it is a group or solo?

Here is the lyrics to the song:

Gonna Make It All The Way Home

Verse: 1
Well I’ve seen many souls start out,
and I’ve seen them slip and fall,
I’ve seen them come and I’ve watched them go
as I press toward the mark,
but this race is not for the swift
but it's for those, who will endure,
Oh there's no time for doubt
Oh get your mind made up
We've got to make it all the way!

Chorus:
I’m gonna make it all the way home,
I’m gonna make it all the way home,
though satan tries to turn me around,
I’m gonna make it all the way home.

Verse: 2
Sometimes the road get's rough,
and sometimes the day gets so long,
sometimes my burdens get so heavy,
that I’m tempted then to stop,
but I’ve made up my mind, a long time ago,
there ain’t nothing gonna hinder me,
Oh there's no time for doubt
Oh get your mind made up
We've got to make it all the way!

I searched on both youtube and google, but did not find anything.(Google kept giving me a stupid Frank Sinatra song)

Does anyone know who originally sang this? I am guessing it is a soloist...as a black woman was singing it at that ALJC camp, but I do not know any more than that. Anyone know?
