McEntire described the song as a powerful reminder of God’s ability to bring people together in fellowship.
In an interview with The Oklahoman, she explained how her 2017 album helped her through challenging times. “This record truly helped keep me focused on something constructive, uplifting, and restorative—music,” she said. “These faith-filled songs about hope and optimism are essential in both good and bad times. To get through each day, you need hope and trust.”
