         Thank You for The Cross
         I recently released a single, both video and audio titled
         “Thank You for The Cross”. Originally the title of that
         song was “The Blood Song” which I had announced
         on social media prior to when some changes came
         in.  Something happened  to  make me  change the
         title and which later made me understand the time
         and season which I was in and the season of the
         new generation that has now come. The producer
         of the song, who has now become my friend, in his
         usual way, will send a preview of whatever song we
         record to a few people to listen to and then give their
         comment.  Apparently he sent it to his mum. She
         loved the song because it resonated with her spirit
         and especially where she is in her walk with God.
         She, however, sent a message back asking if I could
         change the title of the song from “The Blood Song”
         to “Thank You for The Cross” because that line of
         the song had really stayed with her as her personal
         thanksgiving for the finished work of Christ in her life.
         I was surprised at the request at first. I prayed about
         the request and when I had a release to allow the
         change, I gave my producer the go ahead to change
         the title.
         Sincerely,  in all the years I  have been writing or
