I always try to write a song, I never just want to write a record. Originally I was not writing songs for myself. ….And I can say this, most of the people who have recorded my songs are songwriters themselves. … Even if I don’t release it myself, somebody else might hear it and want to record it. When you write a song, it gives it that potential. When you write a song, a song has longevity. … So I wanted to sing inspirational music, and that’s exactly how I approached it-only the words have been changed to declare my relationship with God. Songwriting is my gift from God.
