This year’s performance carries even more weight. Vince Gill recently released a new, extended version of the song, finally adding an extra verse he had only performed live in the past. The updated version breathes new depth into the classic, offering listeners an even richer sense of reflection and peace.
Pairing Gill’s heartfelt delivery with Lainey Wilson’s soulful voice promises to be one of the night’s most emotional highlights. For many watching, it won’t just be a performance—it will be a chance to remember, to grieve, and to celebrate the lives of those who have left us.
