After "Jesus You're a Man," Marla was with her brother Jim's three children Todd, Delphine and Tracy, and road manager Horace Crawford, who died the same day as brother Arlie and Dan Reeves in 2022.
After "He Did it All For Me," the clip of Marla and her brothers singing "I Know Who Holds Tomorrow" is from the Oak Ridge Boys' TV show. After that, Marla was playing the piano as she was with the six offensive linemen and her brother Harold.
After "Each Step I Take," Marla and her brothers were with the Cowboys practicing hard.
The only song which was never before recorded was the song called "When I Lift Up My Head" which was in a duet with Lee Roy Jordan.
After "I'm Free," Marla had her own fitness after she and her last two brothers were home schooled. After that, Marla sings with John Fitzgerald in a song called "Little as Much When God is In It." After the last four songs, Marla and her brothers were having a big time to go back to Dallas.
