'CCM Magazine' chose it in its article "CCM Magazine Presents 100 Greatest Songs in Christian Music". Paul Baloche responding to the magazine's choice was quoted as saying: "I'm humbled and blown away that a simple prayer of worship, started at my little piano, found its way to the President of the United States. The possibility that this song could be an encouragement to him is such an honor."
