Whitney Houston said she was "overwhelmed" by the response she received from her fans as she performed on Wednesday's "Good Morning America" in New York City's Central Park.

"The love, the support, your prayers mean so much," she says, standing on stage between "GMA" hosts Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts after her performance.

Houston released her highly anticipated new album, I Look to You, this week. This is her first album of new material in seven years. "I never left," she exclaims to a crowd of cheering fans.

Sawyer and Houston talk about their long running friendship and Sawyer says she was worried about her friend when she saw her seven years ago. "Don't be worried anymore," Houston responds. "If you know God, don't be worried."
