so cool that this happened. I never thought American Idol would have Christian music. I know that was back in 2008 but still that was cool. And that song is the bomb
Arthur DeStefano I always like watching this. Just reminds you, that even those who choose not to follow Christ and obey God will still bow in the end. Every tongue will confess that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Lord to the glory of God.
Watching this after 12-13 years since this was first posted. Wow. Still can't believe that this song was performed and aired! An absolute miracle. Go David!
Thx My Lord Jesus, before I accept You as my Saviour I was a Moslem, but now I realized who really and truly the Son of God.. How lucky I'm become Christian right now :)
Just listened to this again for the umpteenth time since it came out in 2008. Still brings a lump to my throat. Nothing compares to the promise we have in Him!
Thank you Jesus for dieing on the cross for my sins in my place so I could get saved and go to heaven and he can save others to all they have to do is ask for him to save them
Imagine if this was on TV today in 2018. I can just hear the outcry even thinking about that. Sad how much we've changed in 10 years. May we always glorify the Lord and never be afraid to do so. Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing!
I totally agree best song ever I just can't stop smiling listening to this song. To know that Jesus's name is being broadcasted to an ungodly world. To share His beautiful name its wonderful
I long to sing to Jesus, the Father and the Holy Spirit with all of my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus and with all of the beautiful angels. It will be so amazing, and the most beautiful moment in all of existence for us. To sing before God in His entirety while being able to look upon His beautiful face and hear Him with our own ears!!! Please come take us home quickly Lord. I look forward to being free of this sin filled world and home with Him for eternity!!!
@bishop kirby clements clements the God that I serve wouldn't require me to pay a price for deliverance. That price was paid by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I rebuke you and your deceptive operation in the name of Jesus!
Wow. So back in 1993 I was at a preliminary choir rehearsal for a Hillsong concert. I was sitting in the room with about 30 or 40 other people and Darlene walks in and says “alright guys I just wrote this new song, I’ve never played it to anyone. But we’re gonna do it at the next conference”. The song was Shout to The Lord. 27 years later I accidentally stumbled on this video and I’m absolutely gobsmacked that spirit filled music made it to the American Idol stage.
Pardon my French. But that's absolutely fucking amazing. I'm so glad you could have such a cool experience back when I was just a year old!!:) I've loved the song ever since y'all rehearsed and perfected it! Thank you so so much! Which part did you play or sing I guess I should say?
Look at how happy, and peaceful everyone is when they sing a christian song! This is why it is good! It brings out your voice, because they are pretty hard songs to sing, and they bring people together! PRAISE BE TO THE LORD!
Every knee shall bow…. Jesus is the name above all names!!!! I have watched this on repeat and still amazed they did this on such a secular platform. Amazing!
Still in 2023, for me, this performance was the most emotional one. Hope all contestants, judges, musicians, audiance, who are of any part related to this show and the ones organizing this contest are blessed and are doing great
As a choir member for 25 years...this song has always been one of my favorites...True worship to our mighty God and a powerful anointing...King of Kings and Lord of Lords..thank youJesus!!
This is amazing! I was listening to some christian songs and then I ended up seeing this which is really unexpected! I never thought that they would do Christian song. Aweeeesome!!!
That is one of my favorite songs we do in my church. Shivers up my spine & it's so powerful it drives me to tears every time. WOW! Great job American Idol!.
They wouldn't dare do this today. Everyone would freak out. This video has been in my favorites for years and I'm so glad this crew had the opportunity to sing this for the world to hear.
WHAT A WONDERFUL SONG AND PERFORMANCE, AND PRAISE TO THE LORD OF LORDS AND KING OF KINGS! I saw some people disagreed and disliked the Lord to be praised here, but you know what, Jesus said to the people on the way entering Jerusalem that: If the people stop praising Him, the rocks on roads will sing to praise Him...NOTHING can stop Him to be glorified and praised! I am so thankful that Jesus is ALWAYS in control...because He is our Creator and truly THERES NONE LIKE HIM!
@Caylin, I don't think it's fair to say that "it meant nothing more than a song to them". Yes, that's probably true of a few of them, but I saw a lot of genuineness in most of these singers, certainly David Archuleta. This was powerful to see on international TV. Wish we could see this sort of thing more often. The Gospel of Christ is so often just swept under the rug and replaced with raunchy stuff.
The previous show ran long so our DVR didn’t record it all. Therefore, we had no idea they ended it with Shout to the Lord. When this show began with Ryan announcing they were singing this song, my wife and I looked at other, jaws dropped. By the time they were done, we were in tears! Thanks to the producers for bucking trends, letting them sing this song twice, and correctly the second time!
Best performance in American Idol history!!!!!!! I was watching it on TV that night singing with them with my hands raised worshipping God!!!!!! God Bless America!!!!!!!
I never saw this performance but sure is good seeing them up there singing praise to God. Every knee well bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord! Shout it out!
I blame the democrats they don't respect conservatives, meanwhile we accept their ways with respect, they condemn us for having faith in God meanwhile we have to respect them just because it would be politically wrong of us. the democrats have been in power to long they've destroyed the principles the country was founded on thank God a republican conservative is the president means we can live in peace and harmony again
JK-Studios I'm both Democrat and Christian. I've also seen multipul conservatives being rude to liberals. Don't blame Democrats for this, although I do agree some may have influenced the insfustry severely

Wow, I'm amazed, great song, Jesus even gets a little glory out of it on national TV, that's almost a miracle the way TV and the world has got these days, I could feel goose bumps while they were singing. Praise God is all I got to say.
so cool that this happened. I never thought American Idol would have Christian music. I know that was back in 2008 but still that was cool. And that song is the bomb
Arthur DeStefano yeah agreed so awesome just discovered this!! there is hope for America haha

Just amazed they did this song....just heard for the first time...God is moving!!!
never expected this on american idol 😊👍🙏❤ With God anything is possible. 👏
takes real courage full respect
All things are possible to those who love God.
In the second season they sung “God Bless the USA” as well. Too bad no one sings any songs like that on network TV or cable anymore.
I remember watching this when it originally aired. It was my favorite performance from season 7. I got teary eyed seeing Michael Johns. RIP
Thank you American Idol for letting them perform this song.
Sylvia Lyons I agree! Because of our Lord, they are blessed with the talent of singing!
Thank you Jesus for dieing on the cross for my sins in my place so I could get saved and go to heaven and he can save others to all they have to do is ask for him to save them
Double thanks y'all
They changed the lyrics left out Jesus
@@ronvitug4641 jesus was the second word that they sung
Amazing, I am so glad the Lord had this song on national TV like this!
Yes! It is just amazing! Hope some people were moved by the Holy Spirit watching this.....
I never heard/saw this before!! I absolutely loved it! Praise Him
Imagine if this was on TV today in 2018. I can just hear the outcry even thinking about that. Sad how much we've changed in 10 years. May we always glorify the Lord and never be afraid to do so. Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing!
Awesome seeing someone on tv giving God His rightful glory, alleluia
This is what I love about American Idol, they let these kind of songs sung in their show. God bless you!
Maybe the best song EVER sang on American Idol? For sure it was about the most important person ever sang about! PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME! JESUS IS LORD!
I totally agree best song ever I just can't stop smiling listening to this song. To know that Jesus's name is being broadcasted to an ungodly world. To share His beautiful name its wonderful
Nice! Just imagine how it will sound when all God's people sing His praise in Heaven :)
arianna schroeder AMEN PRAISE GOD

7yrs ago and this is still so uplifting - David Cooks voice just stands out. Carley and Michael Johns
Never thought I would hear this on American idol... But sure glad I did...For Great Is His Name In All The Earth.
This is the Top Song of American Idol group song ever! We love this always and forever!!
WOW! BEAUTIFUL! This is the first time i've heard this in a while, and it gives me chills. I love this so much!

I loved they sang this. I have this as my ring back. I have answered the phone to people crying saying they needed it.
This really made me cry. I love the presence of the Lord.
Excellent song! And although I watched this when it first aired, I'm still shocked that they actually performed this song! RIP to Michael Johns.
Really sad he died
Drew Inskeep how..?
@bishop kirby clements clements the God that I serve wouldn't require me to pay a price for deliverance. That price was paid by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I rebuke you and your deceptive operation in the name of Jesus!
I remember this season but I never saw this performance! I'm so glad that something like this can still happen on tv! Love it!!!

My favorite season of Idol
Best memory of American Idol
I can't believe they sang this on Idol!
Still in 2023, for me, this performance was the most emotional one. Hope all contestants, judges, musicians, audiance, who are of any part related to this show and the ones organizing this contest are blessed and are doing great
I loved that season of contestants! :) And I wish there were more songs like this in the media today :(
This group of contestants were a tight-knit group. I remember seeing them interviewed together-on Larry King I think.
I still love so much that they did this.
Probably the greatest song ever sung on American Idol. Jesus is Lord...all the earth let us sing!
Praise the Lord for this beautiful message being spread all across the country ❤
As a choir member for 25 years...this song has always been one of my favorites...True worship to our mighty God and a powerful anointing...King of Kings and Lord of Lords..thank youJesus!!
thank you for singing this song. this song is our pray, may people around the world worship Him
This is amazing! I was listening to some christian songs and then I ended up seeing this which is really unexpected! I never thought that they would do Christian song. Aweeeesome!!!
The passion you can hear from them shows that praising the Lord is the right way to sing ❤
Such a powerful song!
American Idol isn’t what it used to be. I miss the old days.
That is one of my favorite songs we do in my church. Shivers up my spine & it's so powerful it drives me to tears every time. WOW! Great job American Idol!.
Beautiful beautiful song!
My jaw just dropped open. I am amazed they sang this song and I am thrilled!!!
Every knee will bow, every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord
They wouldn't dare do this today. Everyone would freak out. This video has been in my favorites for years and I'm so glad this crew had the opportunity to sing this for the world to hear.
They would tbh yall just over exaggerate acting like everything you see is "woke" when its really not
They sounded amazing. I love that they put that on television.
WHAT A WONDERFUL SONG AND PERFORMANCE, AND PRAISE TO THE LORD OF LORDS AND KING OF KINGS!
I saw some people disagreed and disliked the Lord to be praised here, but you know what, Jesus said to the people on the way entering Jerusalem that: If the people stop praising Him, the rocks on roads will sing to praise Him...NOTHING can stop Him to be glorified and praised! I am so thankful that Jesus is ALWAYS in control...because He is our Creator and truly THERES NONE LIKE HIM!
Yes!! So true! Thank you for the refreshing reminder that there is no other god but the One True God who is over all!!!
We sing this song in church quite often. Beautiful song.
Beautiful and awesome!!! Praise to our God the King of Glory!!!!!
The best and most beautiful performance ever in this show! Jesus, he's not only my idol, he is my Friend, my Redeemer, my King!
Amen🙏
Still one of the best versions i have ever heard of this song. Thankfully the TV network allowed them to sing it. It blesses me.
i love prasing to this song at church!
I cry every time, such a beautiful song.
What a beautiful worship song :)
Beautifully done! Thank you American Idol for doing this.
I'm still hear this song in 2020.. thank you season 7 of American Idol.. you sang this song so beautifully.. God bless you! ❤️

...And now nobody wants to say even a single word "God" in any show or any media....gezz! how world has changed in last decade or so
Kamal Gurung the devil is loose
Yeah, but "REAL" saints don't bow! Daniel 3
I blame the democrats they don't respect conservatives, meanwhile we accept their ways with respect, they condemn us for having faith in God meanwhile we have to respect them just because it would be politically wrong of us. the democrats have been in power to long they've destroyed the principles the country was founded on thank God a republican conservative is the president means we can live in peace and harmony again
I am lucky to have found this video because I think I missed this show. Very rare to hear praises to the Lord and Jesus in public television.
JK-Studios I'm both Democrat and Christian. I've also seen multipul conservatives being rude to liberals. Don't blame Democrats for this, although I do agree some may have influenced the insfustry severely
If there's television in Heaven, we just had a peek at what it will be like!
Praise the wonderful name of Jesus forever!
Amazing. The fact they performed this TWICE on a populist prime time show. Wow!
Wow, beautiful
How did this make it on American Idol. I'm crying right now!
