The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir won their seventh Grammy Award Sunday night as their 32nd album, I Will Not Be Moved – Live, dubbed “an anointed masterpiece in praise and worship music” by The Christian Post last year, was selected as the best roots gospel album of 2025 by the Recording Academy's voting members.
The Best Roots Gospel Album category features only albums with “greater than 75% playing time of newly recorded, vocal, traditional/roots gospel music, including country, Southern gospel, bluegrass, and Americana recordings,” according to the Recording Academy.
Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir’s I Will Not Be Moved – Live beat out Then Came The Morning by the Gaither Vocal Band; Praise & Worship: More Than A Hollow Hallelujah by The Isaacs; Good Answersby Karen Peck & New River; and Back To My Roots by Candi Staton.
The choir’s longtime director, Carol Cymbala, who is the wife of Brooklyn Tabernacle Pastor Jim Cymbala, could not attend the awards show, but singer Taranda Greene, who is featured on “How Jesus Loves” on the award-winning album, accepted the award on the choir’s behalf.
