Carrie Underwood couldn’t hold back her tears — she felt like she was in the song, letting each melody become a soul-stirring prayer. On the special “Songs of Faith” night, American Idol truly delivered an experience that was more than a television show: it was a celebration of Faith in a chaotic world. CeCe Winans took the stage as if anointed, carrying a heavenly energy that touched the hearts of the audience. Roman Collins, with a voice like pure light, made the room stand still in the presence of God. And when the tears silently fell, people knew that the night was more than just a performance — it was a miracle.

Carrie Underwood, with her hymn “How Great Thou Art”, brought the whole audience to a silent and emotional silence. Each note of the music sounded like a prayer from the heart, making the audience unable to hold back tears. Ryan Seacrest, the host of the show, could only exclaim: “I really don’t know what to say…”
CeCe Winans, a 17-time Grammy winner, delivered an emotional performance with Roman Collins, Jelly Roll, Brandon Lake and The Brown Four. Their combination created a night of inspiring and spiritual music.

In particular, judges Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan and Carrie Underwood also stepped away from the judges’ table to perform songs that reflected their faith and musical roots. This event marked the first time in the show’s history that all three judges performed together in a special episode.
“American Idol” season 23 saw the return of Carrie Underwood, the winner of season 4, to take on the role of judge for the first time. Her return is a symbol of the musical and faith journey that the show wants to convey.
The “Songs of Faith” concert is not just a television show, but a spiritual experience, where music becomes a bridge between people and the divine.
