The incredibly gifted Genavieve Linkowski has turned in a chilling and fantastic cover version of “Amazing Grace,” the most beloved hymn of all time.

Hymns are some of the most beautiful pieces of music. Sadly, they are also some of the most underutilized. Even many churches have ditched hymns, opting to use more contemporary Christian music for their service's praise and worship portions.

Many people, myself included, likely believe this is an entirely wrong decision. Hymns are often hundreds of years old, and churches probably want a more updated and modern sound. That is understandable, but newer does not always equal better.

There is simply no way any contemporary Christian song can compete with hymns like “Great is Thy Faithfulness,” “In the Garden” and “How Great Thou Art.” Those hymns are so beautifully written, perfectly capturing and articulating the depth and power of the Lord's love, faithfulness and righteousness.

In a clip posted on Instagram, former American Idol contestant Genavieve Linkowski beautifully performed the most beloved and well-known hymn, “Amazing Grace.”

The young woman’s stunning vocal performance and the iconic, memorable lyrics combine to create a version of this timeless hymn that you’ll want to listen to repeatedly. It really is that good!

“Amazing Grace” is a song you’ll never grow tired of hearing. Every time it’s played and heard, it will cause many to become emotional. The hymn perfectly captures human beings' fallen and sinful nature and, simultaneously, the powerful and truly amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The hymn’s opening verse is one that we all know, likely by heart, but it remains incredibly powerful and moving. Arguably, there isn’t a better-known, recited or covered verse in music history.

“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me

I once was lost, but now I’m found

Was blind, but now I see”

Romans 6:14 “For sin shall not have dominion over you. For you are not under the law, but under grace.”
