Recently, she felt a calling to record more inspirational songs. When she heard ‘God Only Knows’ from For King And Country, she knew God was speaking right to her. “I had just told my manager how I was going to go into doing more inspirational music and it was just like God said ‘Okay, why don’t you sing on this song.’ I just had this great feeling about it that this was a good song for now, for people.”
The award-winning sibling duo of For King And Country initially released ‘God Only Knows’ in 2018. It quickly shot to the top of the Christian Billboard charts. The powerful lyrics combined with beautiful vocals make this song an incredible Christian anthem.
