American Idol Alum Covers ‘Gratitude’ By Brandon Lake

Former American Idol contestant Genavieve Linkowski showed off her beautiful voice with a dazzling cover of a beloved track about the need to praise and worship the Lord.

The world is a sad, lonely and dangerous place. It’s filled with people who are hurting and struggling. Some may be at the end of their rope, desperately seeking an answer or comfort and healing. Luckily, there is One who has the power to mend the brokenhearted, heal the sick and provide a way when one doesn’t appear possible. He willingly went to the cross on our behalf, acting as a sacrifice as He endured an excruciatingly painful death. 

It is for that world and life-changing sacrifice that Christ deserves all honor, glory and praise. It is through His death and resurrection that anyone and everyone has a chance at everlasting life with Him. In a clip posted on YouTube, Genavieve covers Brandon Lake’s song “Gratitude.”

The young woman demonstrates that she has been blessed musically. Her voice is outstanding, never missing a note, giving an immensely enjoyable and pitch-perfect performance. 

As the song’s opening verse mentions, there is nothing and no way anyone could adequately thank the Lord for his mercy, grace and forgiveness. 

“All my words fall short
I got nothing new
How could I express
All my gratitude”

As the beautifully written song later states, there is nothing anyone can do but continually worship and praise Him for taking our place. Even that is not nearly enough, but that’s all that anyone has, and we have “nothing else fit for a King.”

Several others commented on the video and mentioned how they enjoyed Genavieve’s cover of the classic tune.

“I genuinely think you have one of the most beautiful voices on earth. God bless you,” one person wrote

“After watching this performance I think it’s safe to say, welcome back. This is a winning performance on any given talent show,” a second person added.

“You are just getting better and better, thank you Jesus for this incredible worship voice, Praise you father,” another individual commented.

Hebrews 13:15 “Let us then make offerings of praise to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name.”
