Adds Sparks, “I’m so thrilled to have had the opportunity to record this amazing, powerful song with For King + Country,” says Jordin. Its message is beautiful, and expresses what everyone needs to hear, and what everyone wants to experience. With all of the distractions we’re facing today, and the chaos in the world, we all need to ask where the love is.”
