@Nyve1213 Thanks for that info. I might have gone 4ever not knowing who originally wrote this song. You never know who you will run in to on you tube. God bless you. May the memory of your father live on. This is one of my "get motivated" songs. If this don't get you up and going nothing will. God was truly with him when he wrote this song. When mama, daddy, sister, brother, pastor,family, friends or WHOEVER don't pray, YOU PRAY ON!!
