From a stirring performance by Cece Winans and Roman Collins’ rendition of “Come Jesus Come” set the tone for the night. Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll also collaborated together on their “Hard Fought Hallelujah,” a song that testifies to the grace of God through life’s battles.
The top 20 contestants each brought their own spiritual flavor to the stage, choosing songs that spoke to redemption, grace and victory. Carrie Underwood delivered a passionate version of “How Great Thou Art,” while Lionel Richie shared his testimony before performing a heartfelt “Eternity.”
This Easter special was more than a showcase of talent—it was a declaration of faith. In a time of cultural uncertainty, American Idol reminded us that the Gospel still has power to reach hearts through music. It was more than music; it was ministry. Each song became a sermon, each voice a vessel for hope. The unified message was clear: Jesus is alive, and He’s still transforming lives.
Let this moment serve as a call to prayer. As voices across the nation lifted up the name of Jesus last night, may we continue to pray for revival—within the entertainment industry, in our home and throughout our nation. The tomb is still empty, and our Savior is still calling hearts to Himself.
