Martina McBride's "I'm Gonna Love You Through It" soared to the Top 10 on the charts and earned the country star a Grammy nomination, and now the tune is up for a couple more awards. The emotionally-charged song is nominated for two ICM (Inspirational Country Music) Faith, Family and Country awards, for both Mainstream Inspirational Country Song and Video of the Year.

Sharing the Mainstream Inspirational Country Song category with the Kansas native is Big & Rich with "That's Why I Pray," Vince Gill's "Threaten Me With Heaven" and "Time Is Love" by Josh Turner.

Josh and Vince are also nominated in the Mainstream Country Artist category, where they are joined by Alan Jackson, Scotty McCreery and Jeff Bates.

"That's Why I Pray" is also named in the video category, along with Blake Shelton's "God Gave Me You," and "Like My Mother Does" by Lauren Alaina.

Other country artists nominated for an ICM Award include Joey+Rory and The Roys, who are nominated for Vocal Duo of the Year, and Ricky Skaggs, who along with Vince is nominated for Musician of the Year. See a complete list of ICM nominees here.

The 18th Annual ICM Faith, Family & Country Awards will take place at Nashville's Schermerhorn Symphony Center on October 18 at 7:00 PM (CT). Ticket information can be found here.

I hope Blake wins. So many people use his "God gave me you" for their weddings and it has helped thousands through tradgedy and has given them strenght.
