The 74-year-old's encouraging tone grows in strength as she pledges to do better, singing, "I'll open up my heart / And let the whole world in / I'll try to make amends / When life is good again."

The tune then shifts its focus away from her in order to directly address the audience, promising the challenges brought on by COVID-19 will fade and present a new opportunity for growth.

"We've been brought to our knees / We've been so ill at ease / There are no guarantees / But you know life goes on," Parton reflects. "This too shall pass away / Bring new and different days / We need to change our ways / And right our wrongs."

This isn't the first time Parton has spread positivity during the pandemic. The Grammy winner has remained a stalwart during the global heath crisis, such as reading books to children with her "Goodnight with Dolly" series and donating $1 million to Vanderbilt University to promote COVID-19 research.
