It started with the theme song ‘Grace Alone’, which was inspired by XL2LETTERS’s rededication to his walk with God, and yet finding out that it is not by works that any man can serve God. After falling in and out of sins so many times, He came to embrace this truth and hold it dear to his heart. With this at the back of his mind, more inspiration came across his way as he wrote even more and more songs.
