专辑简介

This song is simply Derek Clark's testimony of his love for Jesus Christ. Some of the most powerful music he has written has come from some deep place within his soul. Music has helped him to get in tune with both Jesus and other people. He has come to know their spirits, needs and intentions. It has helped Derek to stay grounded and real. It has allowed him to maintain a connection with his soul. Derek has written personally revealing songs since he was seventeen years old. He uses music to express how he has overcome a horrific past.

Derek knows first-hand the power of attitude in coping with adversity and overcoming hardship. At five years of age, Derek’s mother and stepfather (his biological father was in prison) turned him over to the California foster care system, where he would spend the next thirteen years of his life, contending with rejection, humiliation, emotional distress and overwhelming anxiety. Yet through it all, Derek never gave up, and went from victim to victor by defying the artificial limitations imposed on him. He literally took a disadvantage in life and turned it into an advantage. His remarkable story is one of resilience and redemption, from his personal to professional life.
