This is the first non-compilation album to feature a recording of an earlier song, which Camp would do with some of his albums near the end of his recording career. Here, the song was "It's a Dying World"; from the 1984 Word release of the same name.

It was produced by Michael Omartian, who co-wrote some of the tracks and also produced the album Mercy in the Wilderness.
