McBride says she was moved by the video and the rendition of her song and wanted to join the choir during their visit to network television.

“I was extremely touched when I saw the video of the students performing ‘I’m Gonna Love You Through It,’” said Martina. “Their talent amazes me and I jumped at the chance to sing with them. This is such a song of hope and reflection of strength and I’m so proud of the long journey these lyrics have taken on.”
