It’s not uncommon for someone to choose their favorite pop, rock, or country song to perform in an audition. Somer Smith chose an old hymn for her blind audition on The Voice in Australia. Just wait until you hear the pipe about this woman.
Classical hymns can be difficult to sing, but Somer seems to make her performance sound easy. Some uplifting lyrics are “I sing because I am happy. I sing because I’m free. For His eyes are on the sparrow, and I know that He watches over me. “
Her soulful voice filled the arena as she began to sing. Somer couldn’t even finish the first sentence before the three judges returned. Impressed with her incredible talent, all wanted to coach her for the rest of the show.
