Country music fans were left in floods of tears over Carrie Underwood’s touching gesture while performing at Opry 100: A Live Celebration in Nashville, TN on Wednesday.

The 42-year-old country crooner paid tribute to her mentor Randy Travis by singing two of his songs -Three Wooden Crosses and Forever and Ever, Amen – which she concluded by serenading him in the crowd at Grand Ole Opry’s Ryman Auditorium.

Carrie suddenly held the microphone to the 65-year-old country vet’s face and he sang the final ‘Amen,’ which made the crowd stand up for an impromptu ovation during the telecast that aired live on NBC/Peacock.

Randy’s ability to communicate was severely affected by his aphasia diagnosis after suffering a near-fatal stroke in 2013.

Underwood then leaned in for a hug from Travis, who was beaming with pride over his former pupil’s powerful three-octave soprano pipes.

17 years earlier, the six-time Grammy winner surprised the eight-time Grammy winner on that same stage by inviting her to be inducted ‘into the family.’
