When I was small I didn't really know what i was doing. I just sang and it came out sounding pretty good. I just do it and it happens.

And I remember going to the record studio and there was a park across the street and I'd see all the children playing and I would cry because it would make me sad that I would have to work instead.

Look deep within yourself, and you'll find something amazing.

Each day I take time out to study the Bible, no matter where I am. The teachings of the Bible have added a new dimension to my life. It, somehow, makes me whole.

Being on stage is magic. There's nothing like it. You feel the energy of everybody who's out there. You feel it all over your body. When the lights hit you, it's all over, I swear it is.

Each song is a child I nourish and give my love to. But even if you have never written a song, your life is a song. How can it not be?

You ain't seen nothing yet, and the best is yet to come.
