Seriously I was at this show! I am so grateful that somebody recorded it. I had just lost my mother the year before to cancer and this exact song was sang at her funeral. It just so happened that this concert was on my mom's birthday last year. Needless to say when she sang this song so beautifully words cannot describe what it meant to me! Thank you so much for posting this!
Kelly is so humble, she really doesn't know just how good she is. She can nail any song, that she sings! GOD has blessed her with the most Beautiful Voice!! I love Kelly's version of this song. We LOVE YOU KELLY ♥️💖!!!
I listened to the song and then went to look at the Info and she sang it on September 15 2012 which is the day my grandpa died last year and this was the song I dedicated to him at his funeral. I'm bawling holy shit
This song always brings me to tears. Thinking of my beautiful cousin we lost 3 years ago at the age of 17. I love you so much, Alex. "Wish I could see the angels faces, when they hear your sweet voice sing."
She really ought to do a proper studio recording of this. It's amazing. She always does great with country songs. She even sang a duet with Vince Gill and released it as a single--I'm sure he'd love for her to cover this song.
Vince Gill is a TOTAL TOTAL LEGEND and his BEAUTIFUL VOICE IS PURE BLISS!! This song was a masterpiece song of my childhood!!! There are not many people that can justify a cover of legends song..... but Kelly hunni....you do it justice and more! Just BEAUTIFUL!
To all the haters out there Kelly did an amazing job I’ve listened to this song at least fifty times I always cry that’s what great artists do they touch your soul I’m sure Vince would love this rendition I’ve always been a huge fan of both Vince and kelli
What a beautiful song!!!!!!! I love kelly's voice!!! She can sing anything!!! I love her so much!!! Go rest high on that mountain is such a beautiful song!!!! Love it!!!!
i havent seen anything yet that kelly clarkson cant sing. She is an amazing singer, always has been since being discovered on american idol and won. shes one of few that have won american idol and are still around. keep up the great work kelly
i shed a tear too kelly your beautiful thank you so much for introducing me to this song number 1 and for making me have lots of memories for my grandad xxx
Thank you lord Jesus christ for dieing on the cross for us to allow such a singer as Kelly Clarkson to sing songs like go rest it high on the mountain, prais the lord that we can be spoilt to hear such a singer as Kelly. God Bless you Kelly and may your singing career keep on rising as you go through the years.
Thank you for this! I am a pretty big fan who's met her three times now, and I hadn't seen this before. This was a treat for sure and she knocked it out of the park, again! Great video!
Everyone has a song that they listen to and it hits you down in your heart, makes yo go down on your kneels and thank God for the life you have now. I have a short testimony I tell everyone. I lost my wife at 38 and I also lost my Job. I saw my life turning around for the best when I met Lyra holt Dean at a church service in New York (google her name) and ask your questions and pray because its GOD doing. Amen John 14:16 God said he is going to send you a helper that will be with you forever.
What an incredible rendition. Really glad to see that it's not just another song on her set list. She truly meant for this performance to touch someone's heart. Well done, Kelly.
I know your life On earth was troubled And only you could know the pain You weren't afraid to face the devil You were no stranger to the rain Go rest high on that mountain Son your work on earth is done Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Oh, how we cried the day you left us We gathered 'round your grave to grieve Wish I could see the angels faces When they hear your sweet voice sing Go rest high on that mountain Son your work on earth is done Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Go rest high on that mountain Son your work on earth is done Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son
I love singing this song too it chokes me up too just about as bad as the song three crosses by the road side by you know who Mr. Randy Travis that one gets me worked up to the core !!!
@@alana9832 your entitled to your own opinion...which I didn't ask for. Since 10 YEARS AGO there have been other covers and I would say Carrie Underwoods cover is better than Kelly's version. ✌️
I love Kelly singing this. I love Vince Gill singing it also, but Kelly slays it with so much emotion and her vocals are incredible. She can sing anything.
Different gifts for different people. Did Carole King seem jealous of Aretha Franklin when she brought President Obama to tears with her performance of "Natural Woman" at the Kennedy Center Honors?
Wow! Judgemental people! I've heard a few Christians curse! None of us are perfect, but apparently some of you think you are. Btw, how do YOU know she's not a Christian? Even so, beautifully done. I love her. Ps. She DID say a cuss word before she started singing. She must be doomed to hell. Some of these comments make me wonder if we know and love the same God???? Wow.
All the hate towards Kelly clarkson now is ridiculous all because she had a different view then her husband stay out of it she’s the one that made her choice
what difference does it make if she curses or not. my dad does but that meant mean he's not a Baptist. ( which is a form of Christianity) there's nothin in the bible that says do t curse
Actually, the traditional translation of the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20: 1-12) includes "Thou shalt not swear/curse." More modern translations sometimes translate the same passage as "Thou shall not swear falsely."
Ephesians 4:29 - Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Ephesians 5:4 - Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. Colossians 3:8-10 - But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Nate Ngzcaz Check my cover out bro. I'd be interested to see what u think. I'd NEVER compare myself to Vince but I'd like to think I can sing a little bit.
Again I have listened to several of Kelly's covers & to me she just doesn't do any of them any justice. I love her own personal songs & she is an amazing singer & such a sweet person. But just about everyone of the covers she sings them way to fast, some of them she is way off key & she definitely over sings all of them, no need for all of the loud belting she does especially at the end of the songs. Again I like her & her music but she needs to stay away from doing covers, at least any that are slow pace. "Go Rest High on that Mountain" is a slow song, Vince Gill wrote that song when Keith Whitley died in honor of him. They were close friends and it really took a toll on Vince. Just listen to lyrics & u will understand, it's all about Keith! The first few lines tell u right off. "I know your life on earth was troubled And only you could know the pain. You weren't afraid to face the devil, you were no stranger to the rain"... (Keith's life was troubled he had alot of demons, he hid it from the world & was always smiling & so sweet so yes only he knew his pain, Keith once said he wasn't afraid to face the devil & last part one of his well known songs is No stranger to the rain) Then he's telling Keith go rest high, his work here is done go shout your love to God & his son. Vince is talking about the day Keith died & how they all gathered around his grave to grieve, Keith had the most amazing voice, if not the best there ever was especially in country music & that's what Vince is referring to when he said he wish he could see the angels faces when they hear his sweet voice sing!!! Beautifully written & beautifully sung by Vince Gill only!!
@@daniellong5 No dear Vince wrote that song for Keith Whitley & actually sung it for the first time ever at his funeral. Listen to the lyrics you will understand why it was wrote for Keith. Vince told it this, I am going to find where he says this & send it to u!
@@daniellong5 I do not like to call anyone out or make someone feel like they are wrong. Because there is some truth to the fact that his brother was also on his mind when writing this song. But Daniel the lyrics speak for themselves and each one is about Keith!
Daniel Long also Vince Gill's older brother Bob did not commit suicide. He died of a heart attack in 1993. It is a proven fact that Vince started writing that song for Keith Whitley, some of it was inspired by his brother but u way wrong on how he died & your info. Research that's what we technology for now days
Seriously I was at this show! I am so grateful that somebody recorded it. I had just lost my mother the year before to cancer and this exact song was sang at her funeral. It just so happened that this concert was on my mom's birthday last year. Needless to say when she sang this song so beautifully words cannot describe what it meant to me!

anyone who thinks this young lady don't get it is sadly mistaken. that was beautiful. hope Vince saw it
I listened to the song and then went to look at the Info and she sang it on September 15 2012 which is the day my grandpa died last year and this was the song I dedicated to him at his funeral. I'm bawling holy shit
I was at this show! I’m so glad someone recorded it!
This is a beautiful rendition. I really applaud her kindness and the fact that she took "a moment with the Lord." :)
This is the version that brought me to tears. Love her voice with this song. The feels in her performance are profound.
This song always brings me to tears. Thinking of my beautiful cousin we lost 3 years ago at the age of 17. I love you so much, Alex. "Wish I could see the angels faces, when they hear your sweet voice sing."
i couldn't love this anymore than i do. Vince touches my soul with this song. You do, too.
She really ought to do a proper studio recording of this. It's amazing. She always does great with country songs. She even sang a duet with Vince Gill and released it as a single--I'm sure he'd love for her to cover this song.
She did a awesome job
Go Rest High, Up On The Mountain, we need to normalize cover albums.
Carrie sang it better hands down
Vince Gill is a TOTAL TOTAL LEGEND and his BEAUTIFUL VOICE IS PURE BLISS!! This song was a masterpiece song of my childhood!!! There are not many people that can justify a cover of legends song..... but Kelly hunni....you do it justice and more! Just BEAUTIFUL!
If you don’t cry listening to a beautiful cover of Vince gils you don’t have a heart thank you to the audience for capturing this
To all the haters out there Kelly did an amazing job I’ve listened to this song at least fifty times I always cry that’s what great artists do they touch your soul I’m sure Vince would love this rendition I’ve always been a huge fan of both Vince and kelli

Vince Gill wrote this song in remembrance of his late brother.
What an extraordinary soul she is.
so awesome
I love when Kelly just has to close her eyes and feel the music.
Duet with Vince and Kelly doing this song. Heavenly
Stunning!
I love this Song. 😳
Beautiful

Her voice!❤️❤️❤️
What an incredible rendition. Really glad to see that it's not just another song on her set list. She truly meant for this performance to touch someone's heart. Well done, Kelly.
I agree with her....one of The greatest songs ever and of course SHE is AMAZING....she should do a studio recording of it
I know your life
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered 'round your grave to grieve
Wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
I love singing this song too it chokes me up too just about as bad as the song three crosses by the road side by you know who Mr. Randy Travis that one gets me worked up to the core !!!
Forever I love you, my heart !
Every time I hear her sing this song I cry.... She sings it so amazing :')
In my opinion this is the best cover of this song!! Love it!! Almost as much as the original!!
You can't be serious doesn't even come close to Vince!😳🤯👎
@@alana9832 your entitled to your own opinion...which I didn't ask for. Since 10 YEARS AGO there have been other covers and I would say Carrie Underwoods cover is better than Kelly's version. ✌️
u have a voice of an Angel......just sayin
Pls Lord forgive those souls sp.in purgatory & rest them to your Kingdom 🙏🕊🙏🦋🌹🦋🌷🦋💕❤️💕🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏
my mommy like it so much me to so much
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧
Good Lord that woman is fine. wonderful rendition also.
fuck she is so damn beautiful
hell yes
Diana Becerra so we agree
sry lol kel wat a beautiful voice also
wow she good Ya'll!!! (:
I love Kelly singing this. I love Vince Gill singing it also, but Kelly slays it with so much emotion and her vocals are incredible. She can sing anything.
I wish I could see my daddy agin
good version !
Hahaha, I agree with you
If you can make through singing this song without a tear wanting to show up you have no feelings lmfao
It has to be embarrassing for all these hitmakers to have Kelly sing their songs better than the original recorded version.
Different gifts for different people. Did Carole King seem jealous of Aretha Franklin when she brought President Obama to tears with her performance of "Natural Woman" at the Kennedy Center Honors?
1:32 "she's so cute"
that she is
cant listen to this song...2 painful
Actual song starts at 1:20
Is it me or did she have some blues in her voice when she sang this
Just curious does anyone know what key she is in? I am gonna do a cover at a funereal of this song and I want to be able to have the key I need.
Key of G
Wow! Judgemental people! I've heard a few Christians curse! None of us are perfect, but apparently some of you think you are. Btw, how do YOU know she's not a Christian? Even so, beautifully done. I love her. Ps. She DID say a cuss word before she started singing. She must be doomed to hell. Some of these comments make me wonder if we know and love the same God???? Wow.
A song Vince Gill wrote about his brother.
Did you say " Damn " song? Wow
All the hate towards Kelly clarkson now is ridiculous all because she had a different view then her husband stay out of it she’s the one that made her choice
Guess I should have addressed that to chassidypinter1992.
what difference does it make if she curses or not. my dad does but that meant mean he's not a Baptist. ( which is a form of Christianity) there's nothin in the bible that says do t curse
Actually, the traditional translation of the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20: 1-12) includes "Thou shalt not swear/curse." More modern translations sometimes translate the same passage as "Thou shall not swear falsely."

Colossians 3:8-10 - But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
It also says in the Book of Matthew where Jesus gave His sermon on the Mount, "Judge not lest ye be judged!" How's that for Scripture?
Actually Michael English does this song the best. And usually I say the original person does. But his power and emotion does it justice.
I'm not near as talented as her but would love any views or feedback of my cover of this song!! God bless!!!
No1 should sing this but Vince period!
she did not say a cuss world and she isn't a christen.
She said, "sang this damn song." "Damn" emphatically is a cuss word.
Christian is spelt like this and I am a Wiccan
Christians cuss I am a Christian myself and I cuss
How sick are you. If you don't like it fine. but really , it sounds like you need to find a flock.
stop talki' and SING B.......!
Sorry......... its just ok. Vince Gill's version is the standard that all others should be judges.
Nate Ngzcaz Check my cover out bro. I'd be interested to see what u think. I'd NEVER compare myself to Vince but I'd like to think I can sing a little bit.
Nate Ngzcaz u are absolutely correct, it was somewhat ok
Kinda disrespectful she called it this damn song.👎 Listen to Carrie Underwood's version much better than this!
