When asked about her most recent nomination, Dolly said, “That particular song … was more rewarding to me than winning an award. I felt very blessed to be a part of such a wonderful song. But of course, since I grew up in the church and I’m a person of faith, a song like that would mean more to me than a lot of the others, I have to admit.”

Find out if Dolly wins another Grammy on March 14th. In the meantime, listen to the song “There Was Jesus” below:
