Last night, I settled in on the couch to watch the ACM’s Girls’ Night Out on CBS. They were honoring Martina McBride, Reba McIntyre, The Judds, Miranda Lambert, Jennifer Nettles, Loretta Lynn, and my favorite, Carrie Underwood.
Each artist was recognized and got to hear another performer or group perform one of her songs and then she joined that performer to do a duet. Vince Gill honored Carrie Underwood and sang a beautiful version of Jesus Take The Wheel. Carrie was touched and honored and even shed a few tears.
Afterward, Carrie joined Vince at the microphone and immediately started singing. And they took us to church. What an appropriate weekend for such a great testimony and opportunity for Carrie and Vince to witness. What a great God we have and what a beautiful song she sang.
(If you’ve seen Carrie live in concert, you know that in the middle of Jesus, Take The Wheel she sings How Great Thou Art.)
Thank you for posting this-I was so sad when I missed it last night. It gives me goosebumps! Also, judging from the picture in your blog header above, I think you look like Carrie!

Wow. Just, wow. I’m not really a country fan (but I am a Carrie fan)…but here I sit, tears on my face on a Saturday morning. What a perfect reminder for this Easter weekend!
thought of you last night…got the latest pbk catalog and “hayes” was spelled out on one of the walls. 🙂

My favorite hymn, and Carrie’s is always my favorite version! Such a blessing that she chose to praise Him on Easter weekend, when any of her songs could’ve been chosen! Love it!
I caught that show too and, goodness, did that girl blow that song out of the water! I had chills. So glad I recorded it so that I can watch it again and again!
I LOVED this. I’m hoping it will run again so that I can record it!
I LOVED the performance last night…it was amazing!!
I didn’t see this either! Thanks for sharing. Happy Easter!
I had this on in the background last night and when she started singing this song it brought tears to my eyes and I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. AMAZING! Thanks for sharing.
wow. that was amazing! thanks for posting the video
I’m not a country music fan at all, but Jesus Take the Wheel got me through a horrible part of life last summer and I still cry every time I hear it. Or, apparently, read about it as I am now tearing up right now. Thanks for sharing the beautiful youtube.
you have such a cute blog… I just recently found it! 🙂 LOVE this performance by Carrie Underwood! What a wonderful testimony!
Amen! So beautiful. I wish I could sing so well that Vince Gill would back me up! Lucky Amy.

This is absolutely beautiful! Brought me to tears!
this song gives me chills!
I do love Carrie so. She’s the best thing that came out of American Idol.
I posted this on Facebook yesterday. What an amazingly timeless song. Every word speaks true today as the day it was written. Hope you have a happy and blessed Easter!
We played this at my mother in law’s funeral…it’s a beautiful song…
Thanks for posting this. Wow, she did an amazing job!
