just the vulnerability and emotional honesty.
not necessarily, god or religion.
although that is what usually gets credit.
but the emotional sentiment is so powerful it overwhelms and disarms you.
songs about putting yourself in a position where you are not the most important thing in this world.
surviving hardships through the power and grace of something greater than you.
paying tribute to something greater than yourself through love & happiness & positivity.
that is basically what every marvin sapp or donald lawrence or any other contemporary gospel acts song is about.
