T is for 10,000 Reasons

Whilst preparing to record his latest album, Matt Redman sat down with his friend, Jonas Myrin, and wrote "10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)" in about an hour. He admitted in an interview that the words just seemed to 'drop in his lap', with the chorus initially inspired by Psalm 103.

Matt finds the Psalms a deep inspiration for him. "If you wake up one day and you can't think of a reason to praise Him, there is something wrong with your spiritual outlook."
