As human beings, we're very materialistic and have all this stuff - furs and cars and diamonds and money.

As human beings, we're very materialistic and have all this stuff - furs and cars and diamonds and money.

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.

As a kid, this is what I wanted my life to be. Not in my wildest dreams did I ever dare to dream that it would be this.
