Check out this stunning cover of Aerosmith's 'I Don't Want To Miss A Thing' from The Petersens. These heartfelt lyrics are so powerful and hit hard every time!

“I could stay awake just to hear you breathing, 

Watch you smile while you are sleeping

While you're far away and dreaming.” 

What a beautiful rendition of this popular song! The Petersens shared in the caption of this video what inspired their cover of 'I Don't Want To Miss A Thing.'

“I saw a mom sing this song to her newborn baby online and have been singing it to Macy ever since,” writes Ellen, one of the members of the group. “I brought it to the band to see if it would be a good fit and Emmett arranged it into the sweetest lullaby. Enjoy this song made famous by Aerosmith.”

The lovely vocals, harmonies, and instruments take this rock song and transform it into a touching and heartfelt lullaby. And many people online think the same thing.

“This video perfectly expresses the tenderness and unconditional love of a mother. What a wonderful celebration of love!” comments one person on YouTube.

“Sorry Aerosmith, but The Petersens now own this song, and it has become the world’s most rocking lullaby,” writes another person online after listening to the song.

According to their YouTube page, The Petersens are an American roots music band based out of Branson, Missouri. The family band is made up of four siblings (Katie, Ellen, Matt, and Julianne), their mom Karen, as well as their dear friend Emmett Franz.

We hope that you enjoyed watching this video of The Petersens performing the song 'I Don't Want To Miss A Thing' today! May it bless your day and help remind you to be present in the special moments each day brings.

Listen to this wonderful performance of the beloved hymn ‘I Hold A Clear Title To A Mansion’ from the group Goodman Revival.

“I’ve heard people talk about heaven

And tell of its beauty so rare.

So one day he gave me a title

To a mansion in that land so fair.”

What a great hymn that reminds us of our Heavenly home. The voices in Goodman Revival do such a lovely job of bringing the importance of this message to the forefront.

“Goosebumps for sure. Never will get too much of this song. Thank you,” comments one person on YouTube after watching the music video.

“Beautiful song with wonderful lyrics. Heaven is the real home,” writes another person online.

The people that make up the group Goodman Revival include Tanya Goodman Sykes, her husband, acclaimed producer Michael Sykes, and friend Johnny Minick, who is a gospel music veteran who performed for years with the Goodmans. The trio released their debut album titled Songs in the Key of Happy, where they revived Goodman classics such as ‘I Wouldn’t Take Nothing for My Journey Now,’ ‘Until You’ve Known the Love of God,’ and ‘Who Am I.’ 

“There is trust between the three of us,” Tanya Goodman Sykes shares. “There is friendship. There is a wealth of shared experience. We all grew up in church 24-7, and this music has been a big part of all three of our lives. None of us planned this, but we're in a place in our lives where we walk through doors as they open.”

The hymn ‘I Hold A Clear Title To A Mansion’ is one that is sure to uplift and encourage, and we love how the Goodman Revival performed the song in this video. We hope that you enjoyed watching this beautiful performance, too.

Listen to Madison Curbelo on The Voice perform a stunning cover of ‘Landslide’ by Fleetwood Mac.

“I took my love, I took it down, 

I climbed a mountain and I turned around

And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills 

'Til the landslide brought me down”

What a fantastic performance by Madison Curbelo during The Voice Playoffs! Her voice is so lovely and smooth, and her rendition of ‘Landslide’ is just beautiful. Many people online thought the same thing.

“Although I'm rarely made happy by an artist taking liberty with any one of my favorite songs, this rendition of Stevie Nicks Landslide was amazing,” comments one person on YouTube. “I've no doubt Stevie too approved!  Love it! What a beautiful voice.”

“Best cover I've heard,” another person writes online. “The charm of the song was not lost, yet the twist that she added to the song just hits all the right spots. Plus the lovely voice just makes it more emotional and authentic. She floats throughout the song, with no pitch issues whatsoever. Hope she goes to the live rounds.”

Madison Curbelo’s story is one of a comeback. She is 21 years old now, but back when she was 18, the young singer auditioned for season 20 of The Voice. Back then, she did not get a judge to turn their chair around for her, and she was advised to go out and perform as much as possible to build up her confidence and stage presence.

Then on this season of The Voice, Madison Curbelo went on to get a four-chair turnaround during her blind audition. She apparently took the judges’ advice from the first time she auditioned and came back to season 25 to really make an impression!

What a talented singer. We can’t wait to see what comes next for Madison Curbelo! 

Check out this beautiful cover on American Idol from Mia Matthews of the song ‘Those Memories Of You.’ You can’t help but be mesmerized as Mia belts out the powerful lyrics, 

“Those memories of you still haunt me, 

Every night when I lay down

I'll always love you, little darling, 

Until the day they lay me down”

This country rock favorite was recorded by Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris in 1987, and it was part of their album titled Trio. Mia Matthews did a wonderful job covering ‘Those Memories Of You’ on American Idol during their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame night. Her performance wowed both the judges and the audience, alike.

Katy Perry praised the young singer saying, “Not to sound corny, but I think you found your roar! The way that you looked at the cameras, and looked straight in our eyes, you’ve got a lot less fear, and that’s what’s going to take you all the way to the top.”

Many people online also praised Mia’s performance of ‘Those Memories Of You.’ They had so much to say about the talented performer.

“She’s got a beautiful voice, and I love how she has control of her ranges in her vocals! Just a beautiful performance! The chills I got!” one person writes online after watching the video.

“Classic and classy country beauty! She’s always consistent and has such a great time bringing joy with her music,” another person comments online.

It is so fun to see these talented singers on stage during this competition. They truly give it everything they have for each performance. We hope that you enjoyed watching Mia Matthews perform this beautiful rendition of ‘Those Memories Of You’ in this video and it was able to bring a smile to your face today! 

Check out this beautiful stripped-down rendition of Mat and Savanna Shaw’s song called ‘Be Here Now.’

“I wake up every morning and I'm thinking about tomorrow

I'm already worried about all the things I need to be

Will I ever fall in love? Will I regret the path I'm taking?

Will I disappoint my parents, or will they be proud of me?”

This personal song written by Mat and Savanna is just fantastic, and the way that their voices blend throughout the music sounds wonderful.

“This song is maybe the most real and raw look into our lives. Maybe all of our lives?” writes Mat and Savanna Shaw in the caption of their YouTube video. “When we wrote this song, we treated it like a journal entry. Our fears for the future, and regrets of the past. It’s so easy to get caught up in all of it. But if we’ve learned anything the last couple of years, it’s that we are the happiest when we focus on what we have right here, right now. Life can be messy and hard, but there is also so much beauty to be found. I’d rather ‘Be Here Now.’”

What an important message that deserves to be shared! This father-daughter duo does such a great job at using their musical gifts to share hope and spread joy.

“This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard in a long while!” writes one person on YouTube after watching the video. “Thank you, Mat and Savanna, for adding more goodness to this world!”

“Savanna is a vocal superstar, but it really needs to be said that Mat is as well. Such a wonderful, rich tone and he has virtually perfect pitch,” comments another person online. “The two of you together create an absolutely beautiful vocal pair that completely complements the other.”

Mat and Savanna outdid themselves with this song, and we can’t wait to see what they share with the world next! We hope that you enjoyed this video of ‘Be Here Now’ from this talented father-daughter pair.

Check out this moving cover of the song ‘I’ll Stand By You’ from Olivia Rubini on The Voice.

“Oh, why you look so sad?

Tears are in your eyes

Come on and come to me now

Don't be ashamed to cry”

This performance by Olivia Rubini is from The Voice Playoffs, and she did an amazing job! The judges on The Voice were enthralled by her performance, as was the audience. Her voice draws you in, and she is just lovely to listen to. Many people online thought the same!

“Perfect song choice for her. So good!” comments one person on YouTube after watching the video.

“There's something so special about her. I want to hear more,” writes another person online.

Being the daughter of a music producer and drummer, music has always been an important part of Olivia Rubini’s life. She started releasing music at the age of 15, and her musical style throughout the years has evolved and transformed to reflect her life and growth. Even though she went to college and explored international relations and political science, music remained her priority. In 2021, Olivia released her first album titled Silhouettes, with her dad being her producer.

Olivia has a dynamic pop voice, and some of her inspirations include Fleetwood Mac, Coldplay, The Rolling Stones, Harry Styles, and Miley Cyrus. When Olivia Rubini auditioned for Season 25 of The Voice, her talent impressed the judges and captivated the audience. And this performance of ‘I’ll Stand By You’ was no different! Olivia put her own spin on this popular song, and it was so entertaining to see her do her thing up on that stage!

We hope that you enjoyed watching this video of Olivia Rubini singing ‘I’ll Stand By You’ today! We can’t wait to see what comes from this talented singer next!

Psalm 150:4 "Praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with strings and pipe!"

A church youth group performed a fantastic and lovely cover of Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.”

Hundreds of musicians have produced and released thousands of songs throughout the decades. Most of the tunes you’ll hear on the radio, Spotify or Apple Music are super catchy and may get stuck in your head for a while. However, like 95 percent of the songs produced, they are soon forgotten, never to be remembered or heard again. 

Only a few songs will ever be remembered years and decades after its initial release. That’s the true definition of a classic. Is a song still listened to, covered by other musicians and universally beloved decades after it first hit the radio? If the answer is yes, then you know that song is timeless.

One song that most certainly qualifies as a classic is Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.” In a clip posted on YouTube, a church youth group put their God-given musical abilities on display with a fun and delightful performance of “Sweet Caroline.”

No one misses a single note or chord throughout the four-minute clip. That’s made even more impressive, considering the video's text clearly shows that the kids learned the song in less than an hour!

You’ll likely find yourself singing along or tapping your foot a few seconds into the clip. 

Even people who aren’t fans of Neil Diamond know and love “Sweet Caroline.” How can you not love that song? It has one of the catchiest choruses of all time. Once you hear those memorable lyrics and iconic tune, it’ll be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.

“Sweet Caroline

Good times never seemed so good, so good, so good

I’ve been inclined

To believe they never would”

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

A group of adorable and musically gifted children turned in a sweet and moving a cappella rendition of the beloved hymn “Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.”

Since sin first entered the world in the Garden of Eden, it has done nothing but cause damage and destruction. Sin has ruined lives, torn about relationships, ended marriages and brought about death and disease. 

Everything that sin touches is made infinitely worse. The evidence is right in front of us. This world is a lost and fallen place full of people who have willingly turned their backs on God. But even though we, as sinners, turned away from Him, He still loved us. He loved us enough to send His one and only Son, who died a horrible, agonizing and completely undeserving death on the cross.

He went through all of that for you and me. Because of Christ’s death and the blood shed on the cross, we have a chance and hope for salvation and eternal life with Him.

In a clip posted on YouTube, six children sing “Nothing but the Blood of Jesus,” the beloved hymn about Christ and the mighty and life-changing power of His blood. The blood of Christ can wash away sin and repair us to a right relationship with God. 

The hymn’s opening and memorable verse is simple yet powerful, moving and true.

“What can wash away my sin?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

What can me whole again?

 Nothing but the blood of Jesus”

These youngsters singing about Christ’s lifesaving and life-changing blood are part of the Cinereski Family. On the family’s YouTube channel are dozens more videos of them singing such beloved and timeless hymns like “Victory in Jesus,” “I’ll Fly Away,” and “What a Day That Will Be.”

1 John 1:9 “If we say openly that we have done wrong, he is upright and true to his word, giving us forgiveness of sins and making us clean from all evil.”

Musical legend Paul McCartney took the stage and joined one of the biggest bands of all time, The Eagles, and they dazzled fans with a stunning live “Let It Be” collaboration.

Over the decades, hundreds of artists have released thousands of songs. Some of those songs may have even reached the top of the chart. However, most of those songs will soon be forgotten, as will most of the musicians and acts responsible for them. 

Some musicians may even achieve a sustained, extended, successful career in the entertainment industry. But musicians rarely ever reach legendary status, where anything they do, sing or produce is celebrated by fans and critics alike. Their work will be remembered for decades, long after they are gone.

The Beatles and The Eagles are two legendary groups. Decades after their heyday, they are still celebrated and recognized for their work. Their work is beloved and is continually met with thunderous applause, with fans traveling hours to see and hear them in concert. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Paul McCartney, the former lead singer of The Beatles, took the stage at the Hollywood Bowl, where he joined The Eagles. While sitting at the piano, Paul tickles the ivories and sings “Let It Be” while The Eagles serve as his band.

Everyone in the theater sang the memorable lyrics, along with Paul.

“When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And in my hour of darkness, she is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be”

It was simply an outstanding performance!

Even those who aren’t the biggest fans of The Beatles or The Eagles can still appreciate such a special moment and performance. That performance brought together some of the biggest names in the music world within the last 50 or 60 years.

According to Rolling Stone, Paul and The Eagles’ performance was part of a tribute concert to the late Jimmy Buffett.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;” 

Music teacher Taryn Charles earned herself a coveted Golden Buzzer for her absolutely stunning and awe-inspiring performance on Britain’s Got Talent, singing Aretha Franklin’s “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman.”

Confidence and being sure of oneself and one's abilities can make a big difference in life. Someone may be blessed with God-given talent in a particular area, but that gift is rendered useless if they are too afraid of failure or to do anything with it. People will shy away from potential criticism and failure, robbing the world of their God-given gifts and abilities.

It's for that reason that kindness and encouragement are so important. Someone who is not totally confident in themselves may try or do something simply because of a kind, uplifting or encouraging word. As the Bible says, everything that comes out of our mouths should be used to build others up. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, an obviously nervous Taryn stepped out onto the Britain’s Got Talent stage and blew away the judges and the studio audience. Her performance was simply stunning as she sang one of Aretha Franklin’s timeless tracks.

Following her performance, everyone was on their feet, applauding the young music teacher. Even the four judges could not hide their astonishment at one they had just witnessed. Bruno responded, and rightly so, by slamming the Golden Buzzer and sending confetti falling to the floor. 

Taryn was overwhelmed with emotion as tears started to stream down her face. 

After all the confetti had landed on the ground, Taryn revealed some of what was likely causing her to be nervous and hesitant about performing for the show. Someone, at one time or another, had told her that she was not good enough and couldn’t sing.

Words are powerful. They can and do have a significant impact on others. We should choose our words carefully because we never know how what we say will affect someone else’s life.

Ephesians 4:29 “Let no evil talk come out of your mother, but only what is good for giving necessary teaching, and for grace to those who give ear.”

Prepare to be enchanted and moved to tears as the angelic voices of the PS22 Kids Choir deliver a beautiful rendition of Cyndi Lauper’s classic ‘Time After Time.’ With innocence in their hearts and passion in their souls, these young, talented kids transport listeners to a realm of pure beauty and emotion.

Directed by the incredibly gifted Gregg Breinberg, the PS22 Chorus of Staten Island has become a Webby Award-winning internet sensation. The group features 65 public school fifth graders who captivate audiences with their incredible talent and heartwarming performances. 

Their story is even more remarkable because PS22 Chorus is not a school for the arts or even a school program. It's simply a group of ordinary children achieving extraordinary accomplishments through the power of music.

Since its formation in 2000, the PS22 Chorus has captured the hearts of millions worldwide, with its videos garnering hundreds of millions of views across YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. Their fame extends beyond the digital realm, as they have been featured on esteemed platforms such as Nightline, Oprah, The View, Sesame Street, and The Today Show. They even graced the stage of the 2011 Academy Awards!

But what truly sets the PS22 Kids Choir apart is their unwavering commitment to spreading harmony, both musically and otherwise. They serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration, proving that anything is possible with hard work and dedication.

As you listen to their rendition of "Time After Time," close your eyes and let their voices wash over you like a warm embrace. Feel the power of their unity and the beauty of their harmonies. And remember, in a world sometimes filled with chaos and uncertainty, the PS22 Chorus reminds us that beauty remains. And we can truly change the world through the God-given gift of music.

Thank the good Lord for the gift of music; it is truly a blessing! The pure souls of the children in the PS22 Kids Choir are a testament to the beauty and wonder that exists in the world. Their voices uplift and inspire, reminding us of the power of harmony and the joy that comes from sharing our talents with others. Let us thank God for the gift of music and the innocence and sincerity witnessed in these young performers. May their voices continue touching hearts and spreading love and hope wherever they go.

Mark 10:14 "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."

Two youngsters showed off their musical abilities with a stunning and awe-inspiring rendition of The Carpenters’ classic “Close to You.”

God is in control. He makes the decisions and calls in life. For instance, He decides who gets what talents and gives everyone a different set of abilities and skills. No two people are the same, and similarly, neither are the gifts He so graciously bestows upon individuals.

Talent can and does come in many different shapes, sizes and forms. Often, those most blessed with loads of eye-popping talent are the same people we may overlook for one reason or another. Even the littlest and most innocent can surprise us with their God-given abilities. 

Even though young and inexperienced, children can be those blessed with the most talent. A clip posted on social media shows two young people singing and performing a beloved tune from The Carpenters, “Close to You.”

The video begins with the young man and little lady sitting on a piano bench. He starts tickling the ivories and produces the familiar tune. Moments into the video, after the young man plays the song's opening notes, the girl comes in and starts belting out the lyrics.

The little girl’s lovely voice reminds listeners, to a certain degree, of Karen Carpenter’s sweet and pitch-perfect voice. Karen Carpenter’s voice was fantastic, and you could listen to it for hours without ever getting tired of it. 

According to the children’s Instagram page, they are Maya and Max. Maya is 10 years old, while Max is a little younger, at seven. On their page, you’ll find several videos of them playing other classic songs, such as John Lennon’s “Imagine,” “Hey Jude” by The Beatles and Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me to The Moon.”  

It's clear that these children, Maya and Max, have been incredibly blessed with God-given musical ability. 

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

A choir of Simon Cowell lookalikes performed a rocking rendition of Tina Turner’s classic “Simply the Best” on Britain’s Got Talent.

No two people are the same. While there are twins and other instances where individuals look alike, no one is exactly like someone else. Everyone is an individual, created with their own likes, dislikes, tastes and preferences. God creates individuals, one-of-a-kinds and not replicas.

However, while everyone is uniquely created with a specific purpose and plan, sometimes people emulate others in either appearance or behavior. This is most often and easily seen in children acting like and wearing the uniforms of their favorite athletes. They see someone whose athletic ability they admire, so they want to be like them in dress and action. 

A clip posted on YouTube shows other people who, for whatever reason, want to look like a judge from Britain’s Got Talent: Simon Cowell. Simon has been in the public eye for decades, first grabbing attention as the blunt and very honest judge on American Idol. Since that time, Simon has become affiliated with a specific look. 

The Simply Simon Choir, made up of dozens of people, wore a typical Simon Cowell outfit as they slowly made their way onto the stage. Just when you thought there couldn’t possibly be more members, more Simon clones walked out on stage. 

The members take their marks on the stage as they sing Tina Turner’s hit “Simply the Best.” 

I think it’s safe to say they are big fans of Mr. Cowell.

The act gives the judges a good laugh and even causes Simon to shy away, hiding his face in embarrassment. The Simply Simon Choir also doesn’t sound too bad, getting the entire studio audience into their fun and hilarious performance.

The clip ends with the Simply Simon Choir getting four yes votes, all from Simon.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord:”

Three Skaters Move And Groove To ‘Stayin’ Alive’ By The Bee Gees

Three men on roller skates moved and grooved, showing off their fancy footwork to the Bee Gees iconic tune, “Stayin’ Alive.”

Disco is a type of music that evokes strong reactions from nearly everyone. People seem to either love or hate those songs. There is no middle ground when it comes to the 70s-era genre. Wallfling, hemming and hawing are not things that happen, at least not when Disco is the topic of discussion.

Despite the strong reactions from music fans about Disco, that era still produced a handful of beloved tunes that are still played today. Everyone knows the words to Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive,” “We Are Family” by Sister Sledge and “I’m Coming Out” by Diana Ross. An entire dance was even created to The Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.”

But when it comes to Disco, one song stands out among the rest. The Bee Gees were a super popular group that produced several memorable hits, including “Stayin’ Alive.” You can’t hear the opening notes of that song and not think of John Travolta strutting down the street in “Saturday Night Fever.”

In a clip posted on social media, three men show off their fancy moves while moving around the roller rink as “Stayin’ Alive” plays. It's clear the guys are attempting to create the iconic opening scene of “Saturday Night Fever” as John Travolta makes his way down the sidewalk. 

The guys move in near-perfect synchronization, not missing a step and keeping up with the beat of the music. It’s a fun, short video that shows someone else’s interpretation of one of the most memorable scenes in cinematic history.

On their Instagram page are dozens of other videos of the Griffin brothers dancing and skating to classic tunes. Songs featured in some of their other videos include “Ring My Bell,” “Night Fever” and “Walk This Way.”

Psalm 149:3 “Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises to him with the tambourine and harp.”

Reba McEntire and Jennifer Hudson joined forces and turned in an unforgettable duet, singing “I’m a Survivor.”

Life will sometimes throw what feels like overwhelming and insurmountable objects and circumstances in our path. These situations will be painful and result in hurt and heartache. No one is immune to such heartbreaking experiences. Sadly, they will visit everyone at one time or another. 

However, while trials and hardships will visit all of us, the good Lord promises to remain by our side. His word says in several spots that He will never leave nor forsake us. He will be with us on the mountaintop and in the deepest, darkest valley. He is faithful and will see us through whatever may come up.

Reba McEntire and Jennifer Hudson are accomplished individuals. Both women have won multiple Grammy Awards and appeared in numerous television and film projects. However, they have also faced hardship and experienced heartache. 

During a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Jennifer joined the Queen of Country music for a fantastic duet of “I’m a Survivor,” a song about going through and persevering through life’s storms and battles.

“A single mom who works two jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter

I’m a survivor”

All will encounter painful and what feels like unbearable situations. But giving up and throwing in the towel is never an option. We never know what is on the other side or how the Lord will use this horrible situation for good. 

As the Bible says, in all things God works for the good of those who love Him. Followers of Christ can hold onto that promise when going through one of life’s many storms.

Ephesians 6:12 “For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.”

Three talented young musicians put on a stunning and fantastic performance of the classic “I Say a Little Prayer,” showcasing their jaw-dropping musical abilities.

Christians understand how important it is to read God’s Word daily. However, another activity even more important than getting into the Bible is prayer. Followers of Jesus Christ should engage in prayer multiple times each day. It’s the all-important process of communicating with God, the Creator of the universe.

Christians are supposed to have and build upon their relationship with God. How is it possible to have a relationship with someone without communication? Without proper communication, a relationship ceases to exist. Prayer is the only way to communicate and express your thankfulness, fears, hopes and requests to God. 

Three youngsters—Biko, Manna and Mfundo—appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show and performed a powerful and moving rendition of Aretha Franklin’s classic “Say a Little Prayer.” 

In the song’s beautiful lyrics, an individual is constantly praying for someone else. They pray when they get ready in the morning and prepare for the day. They pray when riding the bus and heading to work. The singer even uses their coffee break to say another little prayer. 

“The moment I wake up 

Before I put on my makeup

I say a little prayer for you”

It’s an absurdly delightful performance that you could easily listen to it repeatedly. Their voices are so smooth and soothing, so much so that it’s hard to believe that people so young are producing such an enjoyable and beautiful sound. 

At the end of the performance, the youngsters get a well-deserved round of applause from the studio audience. 

While the song is not exactly a Christian or religious song, the lyrics still help to point out that prayer should be constant. We can never pray too much, and there will never be a time when God requests that we stop or slow down our prayer rate. 

Romans 12:12 “Being glad in hope, quiet in trouble, at all times given to prayer,”

You don’t want to miss Glen Campbell, Daryl Hall, and Dave Steward in this stunning “It’s Your Amazing Grace” rendition. In a breathtaking musical collaboration, icons Glen, Daryl, and Dave have joined forces to deliver a stunning rendition of "It's Your Amazing Grace" that not only showcases their immense talent but also captures the essence of God's incredible grace for each of us. With each note and lyric, they weave a tapestry of emotion and melody that transcends boundaries and touches the depths of the soul.

“I hold my head in my hands and I cry

When I think of you

Amazing grace

Keeps us together”

The song, with its heartfelt lyrics and soul-stirring melody, serves as a poignant tribute to the power of love and faith, echoing the boundless grace that God showers upon us all. As Glen, Daryl, and Dave pour their hearts into every word, it's impossible not to be moved by the raw emotion and sincerity of their performance.

With Glen's smooth vocals, Daryl's soulful delivery, and Dave's masterful instrumentation, "It's Your Amazing Grace" takes on a life of its own, enveloping listeners in its warm embrace and leaving an indelible mark on their hearts. Through the music, listeners are reminded of God's unfailing love and the grace that sustains us through every trial and triumph.

As the trio sings of giving everything they have and seeing the world through the lens of love, it's evident that their passion for the music and the message behind it runs deep. With each refrain of "Amazing grace keeps us together," they remind us of the enduring power of God's love to unite and uplift.

And when Glen, Daryl, and Dave join their voices in harmony, it's as if heaven itself has opened up, showering blessings upon all who listen. In that moment, time seems to stand still as the beauty of their music washes over us, leaving us spellbound and captivated by the boundless grace of God.

In a world filled with chaos and uncertainty, "It's Your Amazing Grace" serves as a beacon of hope and a reminder of the strength found in God's love. And with voices as compelling as those of Glen, Daryl, and Dave, it's a message that resonates deeply and profoundly with all who hear it.

John 1:16 “For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace."

In a scene straight out of a Kung Fu flick, a groovy family trio turned the bustling streets into their own martial arts showdown and wowed the internet with their “Kung Fu Fighting” dance in Las Vegas. Jamming to the timeless beats of "Kung Fu Fighting” with moves as sharp as a katana and energy that could rival a Shaolin monk, this husband, wife, and daughter brought their A-game to the neon-lit sidewalks as their stage.

As the iconic rhythm filled the air, the husband unleashed his inner Bruce Lee, throwing punches and kicks with the precision of a seasoned warrior. With each step, he danced circles around his opponents, proving that he was indeed a black belt in the art of dance.

Not to be outdone, the wife channeled her inner Jackie Chan, seamlessly blending grace and power as she twirled and kicked with finesse. Her fluid movements drew admiring glances from onlookers, who couldn't help but marvel at her mastery of the dance and how much fun she was having!

And let's not forget the youngest member of the troupe, their daughter, whose pint-sized stature belied her formidable skills. With a gleam in her eye and a spring in her step, she danced circles around her parents, proving that when it comes to Kung Fu dancing, age is just a number.

Together, this dynamic family trio transformed the sidewalk into their own dojo, their synchronized moves a testament to their unity and bond. Passersby couldn't help but stop and stare, captivated by the spectacle unfolding before their eyes. This family was having so much fun!

As the music reached its crescendo, the trio struck their final poses, their fists raised triumphantly in the air. And as quickly as they had appeared, the family trio vanished into the sea of neon lights, leaving behind a trail of smiles and memories that would last a lifetime. 

Ecclesiastes 3:4 "A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance."

The talented Amymae Dolan joined the Gardiner Brothers for a stunning dance routine to Taylor Swift’s “Can Do It with a Broken Heart.”

The entertainment world is highly competitive, with hundreds, likely thousands, of people striving to achieve some level of success. For that reason, many people audition for shows like American Idol, America’s Got Talent and The Voice. Some individuals will experience some success, while others will not. 

However, no matter how successful someone becomes in entertainment, very few ever reach Taylor Swift’s level. She is, without question, the most recognizable person on Earth. Everything she does is instantly a success. The critics and audiences love her work. All her songs and albums shoot to the top of the charts. The young lady sells out entire football stadiums all over the world.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Mike, Matthew and Amymae put on a dazzling dance routine, showing off their quick-footed moves to Taylor Swift’s tune, “Can Do It with a Broken Heart.” 

It’s an awe-inspiring display of talent, skill and athleticism. You cannot take your eyes off them while they perform their routine. It’s utterly captivating. 

While the speed at which they nimbly and expertly perform the dance moves is mind-blowing, another aspect of their dance is equally impressive. All three do these moves at such speed in complete and total synchronization. 

Mike, Matthew and Amymae do not miss a step when it would have been so easy to do so. The amount of time, practice and attention to detail required to pull off something like that is startling. These three are all incredible dancers; that much is entirely apparent. There is only one left to say about these three: What will they do next?

Psalm 149:3 “Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.”
