"The people that we are having on our tour all came from the church. Most people of faith don't realize that these are also people of faith!"-Yolanda Adams

"I believe I can
I believe I will oh I will
I believe I know my dreams are real,are real
I believe I'll chant
I believe I'll dance
I believe I'll grow real soon,that's why
And that is why I do believe"-Yolanda Adams
