Flanked by a Gospel choir, Christian recording artist Lauren Daigle performed her song “Hold on to Me” for the finale of NBC’s “The Voice” Tuesday night.
Daigle ended the song by ad-libbing a little, singing, “There is hope for the world / there is hope for the world / all you gotta do is hold on / lemme tell you now / just hold on / hold on to me.”
The “You Say” singer-songwriter took to her Twitter account Thursday afternoon to say she is “still on cloud 9 after an incredible time” on “The Voice.”
“There are so many moving pieces in days like this, and it all happens so fast — but every moment is just so much fun,” she wrote. “Very grateful.”
Daigle went on say her performance Tuesday “was one of my absolute favorites.”

“She is amazing,” tweeted Shannon Jones. “A great listen to start your day.”
Another person added, “Exactly what I needed.”
“This is the definition of must-see TV,” wrote Crysta Lee. “Lauren Daigle blows me away! Every. Time. you betta sing!”
Yet another fan described Daigle’s singing “unbelievably beautiful” as another called it an “epic performance.”
