Inspiration of the Song- Christ the Solution

I was inspired to write Christ the Solution based on what is currently going on in the world, and that now more than ever our only Solution is Christ.

I am blessed to have travelled throughout the Caribbean and around the world and my observation on what was taking place and how the word of God is being suppressed, even today as I take a look at what the world is experiencing, I look back at the repercussions we face by denying the word of God being distributed freely in, Schools and other nstitutions, I want to encourage everyone that Christ is the Only Solution today, tomorrow and every day.

With God all things are possible.

This song has inspired me to share with the world that without God in our lives every day, we are nothing. We desperately need God in our lives to unite us as a nation.

Only Christ is the Solution to unite our broken Nation of the wars we are currently fighting-illness, crimes, prostitution and drugs.

Hope this song inspires everyone as much as it inspired me to write the lyrics.

God bless you all from the Islandman B
