Golden Buzzer Winner Lavender Darcangelo Inspires With ‘You Will Be Found’

A Golden Buzzer-winning singer with physical disabilities returned to the America’s Got Talent stage and turned in a stunning, stirring performance of “You Will Be Found.”

Everyday life can be physically and emotionally draining. Some circumstances can leave people feeling at the end of their rope. It can feel like fighting a losing battle. Whether that’s because of events out of our control or because of the mean, hurtful words of others, hope remains. God is still in control. He will never leave nor forsake us.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Lavender Darcangelo, who is blind and has autism, reminded everyone – the judges, the studio audience and those watching at home - that the hurt, heartache and struggle are only temporary. There is something better just beyond the horizon. 

“Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
And when you’re broken on the ground
You will be found”

Her beautiful performance is simply sensational. Everything from the lighting on the stage, the confetti that rains down at the end, and Lavender’s outstanding performance works perfectly together. She has everyone – the studio audience and the judges – on their feet applauding by the conclusion of her performance. 

How Lavender performed the song, starting off low and then slowly building up, hitting several high notes, does feel like it is straight out of a movie, which Simon Cowell mentions. 

“I felt like, Terry, that I was in a movie, you know?” Simon said. “And it was almost like the end of the movie, and someone’s got to sing the big song to get through. And it just happened!”

Howie Mandel loved Lavender’s performance, highlighting the tune’s message in his comments.

“Lavender, you’re so much more than a contestant on this show,” Howie said. “And you’re so much more than this song. What you said was so articulate in the beginning, in the sense that you’ve made choices. And you just taught the world and yourself that happiness, success, and just being productive in life is a choice.”

Galatians 6:9 “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not.”
