Newark, New Jersey (CNN) — Whitney Houston went to church one last time Saturday.
She was welcomed by family, friends and a virtual audience of millions who watched as the pop superstar was remembered as a child of God with the voice of an angel.
A voice that never forgot its roots.
“Jesus Loves Me” was the last song Houston sang in public before her death February 11 in Beverly Hills, California, at the age of 48.
So it was fitting that the mourners — comforted and encouraged by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys and R. Kelly — heard the simple, but powerful, “Jesus Loves Me,” this time performed by CeCe Winans.
