Grammy Award-winning gospel artist Tamela Mann has revealed she is recovering from surgery and thanked fans for their prayers.
The American 'Take Me To The King' singer recently had a double knee replacement.
In a video posted to Instagram highlighted how grateful she was for the support she received.
"Thank you for your prayers," she says from her hospital bed.
"I haven't gotten up and walked yet but that's coming in about an hour.
"I just love everybody. I just thank my family and all you guys [for your] prayers out there and all the calls I got. I really appreciated and I couldn't have made it without everybody, so thank you so much."
Mann posted a video on the social media site a day before her surgery, asking her followers to pray about her upcoming operation.
"I'm letting you guys in to follow me and pray with me through this every step of the way, OK?" she said. ​
