“I’ve gotten countless messages of how this song has literally saved people’s lives and pointed them to Jesus,” Brandon Lake said when accepting the award. “If it wasn’t for Jesus, I don’t know where I would be, y’all. Most important thing I could say is this world is Cray Cray right now, but I was reminded of the scripture this morning, John 16:33. I have told you these things so that in me, you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart, I have overcome the world. He’s overcome, so that means we can too through Christ. Love you. Thank you so much.”

Accepting the “Best Roots Gospel Album” for The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, featured vocalist TaRanda Greene said, ““Carol Cymbala could not be here tonight, but on behalf of her and the entire choir and everyone involved, we are so grateful to write songs, record songs, and get music out there that we pray will encourage you and will bring Hope to the world, in the name of Jesus.”
