Inspiration
Reading the Bible on morning I just started singing the chorus. I sat down and worked out the verses.
II Chronicles 7:14
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Deuteronomy 6:5
Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
