The Pope’s visit to to the United States reached exciting new heights hours ago when the singer Aretha Franklin performed the song ‘Amazing Grace‘ at the Festival Of Families.
There, she graced its attendees with a moving rendition of the song which was penned by the brutal slave trader John Newton who wrote the iconic number following his conversion to Christianity.
Watch Ms. Franklin bring his lyrics to life below…

Beyoncé version slayed her fat bitter ass
She’s the Queen of Soul. Your opinion is irrelevant
I’m gonna pass on this one….
GOOD NEWS FOR THE SWIFTIES OUT THERE…. TAYLOR JUST EARNED HER FIFTH TOP 10 FROM THE SAME ALBUM
BAD NEWS FOR THE HIVE….. RUNIN JUST DEPUTED ONE SPOT HIGHER THAN AMERICAN OXYGEN
WORST NEWS FOR LITTLE MONSTERS….. TILL IT…….. DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE HOT 100 THIS WEEK
Judy Collins’s version of this song is my favorite, nobody did it like her, no one.

She is very disrespectful!! did not even greet the pop nor even look his direction very disappointed in her action like she is trying to say I’m way better than you…. old p** stewww only screaming on stage how stupid
F** you and f** the pope for the fact he hoarding all those billions and not helping a single soul with it and all those cover up s(e)xual abuse performed by the priests. Oh and i live for Ms Franklin shade. now go fall down a flight of stairs and crack your neck.
Aretha’s a Christian…only catholics view the pope as if he’s Jesus…he’s just a man
idiot catholics are christians, what you meant to say is that she is apostolic, which is more jesus where catholics are more mary
I mean, I guess….
She’s a legend and all that but she needs to step aside and let someone else do these events they always call her for.
She sounded a mess.
u gotta watch the new MYA interview that everyone is talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfD7C9_d1dA
She should have done a more pure version of the song since it was before the pope. But I got my life when Miss Franklin got on the good foot at the end.
Still sounding incredible after so many years! She is the original Queen Of Soul
I nearly pîssed myself when she sang the fvck outta ‘Touch My Body’ like she meant every word ????.

You better sing that song Ree-Ree! All hail the QUEEN!
Why the hell(no pun intended) did it take so long to sing a two minute song? She just does the most.
SCREAAAAAMING!
