ABOUT THE SONG:

"When the idea came up to go to Africa, it was really inspired by the song 'Great Divide' cos that song talks all about hope and the idea of having a children's choir singing in it, these kids who are in desolate, terrible conditions singing about hope, was just an incredible thing that really fueled our desire to go there even more than just our curiousity in the little role we could play in helping to save lives."
