Carrie Underwood released the live version of “O Come All Ye Faithful” for her fans to enjoy just in time for Christmas.

On Thursday, December 18, Underwood shared a video on her YouTube channel of her singing the classic Christmas hymn. The performance originally appeared in her HBO Max holiday special, My Gift: A Christmas Special from Carrie Underwood.

The special was released in 2020, shortly after the singer put out her very first Christmas album, My Gift. The album includes eight classic carols and three original songs.

If you haven’t had the chance to watch Underwood’s Christmas special, now is the perfect time to see her take on one of the most beloved holiday hymns.

“O Come All Ye Faithful” dates back hundreds of years and has been credited to several authors. The earliest known printed version appeared in a book published by John Francis Wade in the mid-1700s, according to Hymnary.

The song originally had four verses, but it was later expanded to eight and translated into many different languages. In 1841, English Catholic priest Fredrick Oakeley translated it into English, helping it become popular in English-speaking countries

During her performance, Underwood takes center stage in a stunning white tulle gown that sparkles under the lights. The setup around her is simple. However, her powerful voice and the hymn’s lyrics make it an unforgettable moment for anyone watching.

Just a few days before, Carrie Underwood surprised churchgoers with an unannounced performance of “O Holy Night” & “All Is Well.”

Not only did she release her performance of “O Come All Ye Faithful,” but last week Underwood made a surprise appearance at her church in Tennessee for its annual Christmas program.

She took the stage to sing two other classic songs, “O Holy Night” and “All Is Well.”

“THE POWER OF LOVE” WAS WRITTEN IN 1985 — BUT TONIGHT, IT FELT BRAND NEW. When Il Volo stepped into “The Power of Love,” nothing felt rushed. The lights were soft. The air felt still. Gianluca Ginoble didn’t overpower the song — he leaned into it. His voice rose slowly, steady and full, like he trusted every word to land on its own. You could see it in his face. Calm. Focused. Honest. The other voices wrapped around him, not competing, just holding the moment together. For a few minutes, it didn’t feel like a cover or a performance. It felt like a memory you didn’t know you had, suddenly coming back. That’s when love songs work best.

“NO ONE EXPECTED THIS — NOT EVEN PAUL.” If there was ever a moment fans dared to imagine but never believed they’d see, it was this. Under the soft wash of stage lights, Paul McCartney stepped toward the microphone as 20,000 voices fell into a hush. The opening piano notes of “Let It Be” drifted through the stadium — familiar, sacred, almost untouchable. Then Paul turned slightly… and reached out his hand.

HE NEVER TAKES OFF HIS HAT IN PUBLIC — EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE TIME. “I’ve been running from getting old for years,” he said softly, “but it finally caught me.” Alan Jackson has always stood as the image of quiet strength — white Stetson low, emotions hidden behind songs instead of speeches. But as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease slowly began affecting his balance, fans noticed the change long before he spoke about it. During a hometown show in Georgia, the air felt different. Near the end of the night, instead of his usual wave goodbye, Alan paused. Slowly, he lifted his hat — a rare gesture that stilled the room instantly. Beneath it were tired eyes, honest and unguarded, no longer shielded by the icon people had always seen. He bowed — not dramatically, just quietly — as if laying something down no one else could see. The crowd didn’t cheer right away. They stood still, knowing this wasn’t just the end of a show. It felt like watching time itself take a breath… and a cowboy finally admitting the road had been long enough.
