While GRAMMY Award®-winning artist Zach Williams wrapped 2020 with another No. 1 song, a GRAMMY nomination, two GMA Dove Award® wins and more, his 2021 is already off to a great start. It was just announced that the Williams' GRAMMY-nominated song "There Was Jesus," his duet with Dolly Parton, has received RIAA® Gold Certification.

While 2020 brought many cancellations and changes to the music and touring world, Williams was able to spend time with family while also songwriting, recording, and touring during many drive-in theater shows. He then added another No. 1 single to his accolades with "There Was Jesus," the song that Williams and Parton originally debuted during the live broadcast of the 53rd Annual CMA Awards.

"There Was Jesus" is featured on Rescue Story, which was nominated for a GMA Dove Award (Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year) and won in 2020 for Best Recorded Music Packaging. Williams was also named 2020's GMA Dove Awards Songwriter of the Year (Artist).

"Chain Breaker" is RIAA-certified Platinum, while "Old Church Choir" and "Fear Is A Liar" are both Gold. Chain Breaker, his GRAMMY-winning album, is also certified Gold.
