Carrie Underwood turned in a powerful “How Great Thou Art” performance on American Idol. Her moving and awe-inspiring rendition of the beloved hymn deserves to be listened to multiple times. Watch the short clip to see and hear Carrie knock it out of the park as she performs a classic hymn near and dear to the hearts of many.

American Idol is a show in which a panel of judges, typically big, recognizable names in the music world, judge and critique those seeking to become singers. Throughout the season, those judges give their thoughts and opinions on the contestants and are forced to make cuts, sending many people home. Eventually, as the season progresses, who moves along in the competition and who goes home is up to the studio audience and those watching at home.

Carrie Underwood, a former American Idol winner, is now a judge on the program. In a clip posted on YouTube, the now-judge and past American Idol contestant took the stage on the show once again. This time, she took the stage and performed a tune beloved by many, “How Great Thou Art.”

“How Great Thou Art” is a song that will always and forever remain relevant and powerful. It does not matter how many times you may have heard the song; it will never become old, tired or stale. The hymn’s lyrics accurately and articulately describe Christ’s love and sacrifice for you and me.

“Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art”

Carrie has one of the most beautiful voices in entertainment. Every time she sings, it is abundantly clear why she won American Idol during the show’s fourth season. She displayed her voice as she beautifully performed the hymn about the powerful, mighty, faithful and loving God we serve.

2 Samuel 7:22 “Why you are great, O Lord God: for there is none like you, neither is there any God beside you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.”
