“...The verse melody came to me very quickly and so did the words, ‘Jesus, You are number one in my heart.’ I knew instantly that I was meant to write a song of thanks for Jesus always being there to carry me and be my place of peace. I felt the need to turn to Him on that night, and I ended up doing it through a song.’”
