The title track was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song for 86th Annual Academy Awards (2014). On January 29, 2014, the nomination was rescinded after the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences found that songwriter Bruce Broughton, a former governor and executive committee member of the music branch of AMPAAS at the time, had improperly contacted other branch members by e-mail solicitation for support.
The title track is sung by Joni Eareckson Tada, who is quadriplegic. Because her condition affects her lungs, her husband had to push her diaphragm to help her reach the high notes.
