American gospel singer Donnie McClurkin has survived a ghastly car accident barely a week after visiting Nigeria for the annual music concert The Experience.

The 59-year-old shared the miracle in a message on Facebook on Thursday.

“Was in a serious accident at 12:50am this morning…passed out while driving on the highway. Totaled the car…hospitalized, going through a myriad of tests…..But I’m alive!!!

“Lost consciousness driving…but two human angels followed my swerving car with their emergency blinkers onto stop traffic ….drove behind me until my car crashed into the middle concrete island.

“I remember none of it except those two angels pulling me out of the passengers side of the crumbled TOTALED car..airbags deployed…crushed metal and Fiberglas!! I AM ALIVE!!!!,” he wrote.

Mr McClurkin added that he had sustained injuries in his thumb, wrist and knee, but was glad that he survived.

“Somewhat mangled, stitches on left thumb, sprained wrist, hurt knee, but I’m still here! God and two angels saved my life! I owe them…I am still here by the grace of God!

“Thank you, Lord…thank you!,” he said.

McClurkin performed live in Nigeria on December 7 at the 13th edition of The Experience in Lagos.
