Power star Naturi Naughton was feeling the spirit while singing the classic Gospel song, “I Won’t Complain.” The actress was obviously overcome when she got on the mic at gospel singer Jonathan McReynold’s recent show at the Knitting Factory Brooklyn, and started an impromptu rendition of Rev. Paul Jones’ song. Naughton shared a video of the moment on her Instagram.

“Impromptu. Thankful. Honored. Testimony. God,” she captioned the video. Naughton has been in front of the cameras since childhood, and many of us were first introduced to the talent as a member of 3LW in the early 2000s. Since then, she’s gone on to have a fruitful acting career in Notorious, Mad Men, The Client List and, now, as Tasha St. Patrick on Starz’s Power. This year has been a big year for Naughton, whose daughter Zuri celebrated her first birthday in July. Her popular show Power just ended its fifth season on Sunday with major ratings. It appears there is little to “complain” about.
