From the recording Alleluia
For the past year I have been waiting for God to give me a Praise & Worship song. He's given me so many others, from country to Pop, and I really wanted one that would express back to Him how I feel. Finally, I had a *DUH* moment when I realized that waiting for God to give me a song about praising Him was the same as asking someone to sing themselves "Happy Birthday"! This song had to come from my heart; not be given to me by the very one the song was about. So, here is "Alleluia", the reason I sing.
