很多暢銷歌曲的創作構想與啟發來自教堂，作曲人Archie Jordan替Ronnie
Milsap所寫的1978年冠軍曲What A Difference You've Made In My Life就是一個例子。
Archie表示：在一次聖經研討課結束後，一位學員站起來做見證，那人說他感覺上帝如陽光般日夜照亮他，給了他很不平凡的生命…，這個想法刺激Archie想去探討有多少人有相同的看法。
Archie覺得其實不需要直接談上帝，談談夫妻與小孩也不錯，而且這個構想到第二天早上起床時還在他腦海中，於是他決定開始寫這首歌。
當Ronnie Milsap開始錄這首歌之前，他只要Archie Jordan改了一點歌詞，為了求好，Ronnie與Archie 還有志一同的在錄音的時候擔任鍵琴伴奏。
Ronnie Milsap於1977年11月19日 推出What A Difference You've Made In My Life，二個月後在鄉村歌曲排行榜獲得冠軍，那是他第九首鄉村歌曲排行榜冠軍曲。
Ronnie Milsap1943年出生於北卡羅萊納州Robbinsville，天生即雙眼失明，但極具音樂天份的他12歲即能玩多種樂器 ，自1973至2000年，Ronnie Milsap在鄉村歌曲排行榜一共有63首暢銷曲，其中有35首獲得過冠軍。
Ronnie Milsap在鄉村歌唱界的成績，就如同流行歌唱界的黑人盲歌星Stevie Wonder一般受歡迎。

Ronnie Milsap
What a difference you've made in my life,
What a difference you've made in my life
You're my sunshine day and night.
Oh, what a difference you've made
In my life.

What a change you have made in my heart,
What a change you have made in my heart,
You've replaced all the broken parts.
Oh, what a change you have made...

Love to me was just a word in a song
That had been way over-used.
But now I've joined in the singing
Cause you've showed me love's true meanin'
That's why I want to spread the news.

What a difference you've made in my life,
You're my sunshine day and night
Oh, what a difference you've made...
In my life.
