I Can Only Imagine - MercyMe (cover) by Genavieve

Hey everyone! I know I said I was going to post a video this week about my experience on American Idol, but I recorded it, and it ended up being wayyy too long, so I decided to upload a song for you all instead! I hope you enjoy! Also, this is short notice, but if you live in Michigan and you don't have any plans tomorrow, COME MEET ME! I'll be singing near Birch Run! The link to the event is below! Thank you all for your continued support! Have an amazing weekend! :)

You are clearly a gift from God, do not sell this talent to the music industry. God has a much bigger purpose for you. God bless you sister

[@samuelhendrickson6432]

feel free to sell your talent to the music industry and influence it positively.

[@r.blakehole932]

@@samuelhendrickson6432 Nice thought. But, we are all sinners. Including this lovely young lady. And the music industry and Hollyweird at large are absolute experts at breaking down the the morality of the young people who come to them for employment. It is better to stay away from the cesspits of immorality that are Hollyweird and the music industry and build up new avenues for real talent like alternative media is doing. I have absolutely stopped buying traditional music and am only consuming music like this. Blazing new trails is hard but, retaining your virtue before God is worth the effort. I am glad young ladies like this exist as, they give me hope for a future for our nation and world.

[@jerodlundry7960]

Man, this brought me to my knees, every time I hear this song, I begin to cry. It was the song that brought me to the Lord, almost 11 years ago. I don't even know how I found this version, as I've been practicing this song to actually sing in front of our church, and this popped up. Great voice and I have not seen too many songs by you, but just keep your eyes on Christ

[@wolfiebaby870]

@Jerod Lundry I love this song worship him each and every single day I've worked with my sister on the song Amazing Grace and never got to sing it in front of the whole church and I love Jesus Christ he is my savior and almighty king I hope that one day I'll be able to travel around the world and preach God's word.! I'll always worship him each and every single day and I'll never stop. I hope you have a wonderful day and you are awesome. I'm so glad you're worshipping him and I hope others will try every day to get closer to God.😇

[@dylandutton2073]

That lic towards the end "I can only imagine" where it goes from up to down. The way you did that gave me goosebumps. I started watching this video kinda opinionated because I really have a deep connection with the song. But you blew all of that away and proved me wrong so thank you very much for this cover of Imagine!! I really enjoyed it and I hope others do too

[@laura8512]

This song has become the most requested favorite song every week at the local jail when I minister to them on Sundays. It humbles us. Thank you for sharing your great gift and Gods love with the world.

Wow Genavieve. You gave me goosebumps on this cover. The guitar addition was amazing. Your brother played so well. You both have such a musical gift. I loved you on American Idol also. Your audition reminded me of Christina Grimmie. It touched my heart. Don't give up on your dream and your gift. It's truly heaven sent. Love you bunches. Can't wait for more covers. ♥

[@davidhah9851]

I’m very encouraged to hear you sing this song. I had a friend pass away. This was his favorite song. One morning, as soon as I woke up, my radio alarm had started playing the song from the very first piano note. What’s crazy is, I never set my alarm radio for that morning. So I take it as a reminder from God that He loves and cares. God bless you. Hope to hear you live one day.

wow i really felt this song... this is so good im crying. ;)) id really like to hear one of the songs from The Greatest Showman sung by you !!! the song is totally your choice but id love to hear it some day ☺️

[@IamInspiredbyGod]

This was my brother Bobby's favorite song... We sang this to him as he drew his last breath last year in February. You had spoken with him before, and I know that he loved your voice. He sang himself.... Wasn't as good as you, but he did it to bring glory to God. His channel was called "Sitting with hope" Don't know if you remember him. But I do know how you feel with you losing your sister.
