“just go into my “God space.” Most songwriters have a zone that they go into. I call it my spiritual zone. I feel like I’m closest to God when I write. I have to leave myself open for the songs to come in or go out. But God doesn’t hand you everything. You have to do the work. Still, every once in a while, something special happens. A great line will just come to me, and I’ll go, “Hey, thank You, Lord. I know I didn’t think of that.”
