Thank you for the chords, this will help

[chevonee]

This is my song right here, thanks for all you do Val!!! Remain blessed

My male chorus will love this song! There isn't just a run I could do in the left hand bass, to give it an extra spice! That they could just sing to for the special part. That's one thing that I am not good at making up! Please help!
I refered to the special part as the vamp.

Is there a advance baseline more that could be played with the right hand chords that would spice the song up.
