As I mentioned in my review of Chicagoan Aaron Sledge’s full project Da Light, “Did It All For Me” is a fine piece of pop-gospel songwriting. It’s so good, you’ll swear you’ve heard it before…a sure sign of a hit.

Sledge gives the melodically simple praise ballad a gorgeous reading, and his recording ought to get radio play, but “Did It All For Me” also has a future in the repertories of gospel, pop, country and Christian singers alike. It’s like a Diane Warren love song with religion.
