Angels Among Us was originally written by Alabama and released as a country Christmas song but it has recently had new life breathed into it and we love the reason why! Radio Disney and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital got together in 2017 for a very good cause. They enlisted the help of a couple of popular country artists to do a cover of the song.
With superstars like Carly Pearce, Hunter Hayes, Brennley Brown, CB30, Jillian Jacqueline, Lucy Hale, RaeLynn, Sara Evans, Scotty McCreery, Tegan Marie, and Temecula Road, the song was bound to be a success. But, it is the beautiful lyrics that reach out to comfort those in need that really strikes a chord.

St. Jude went one step further and made some children's dreams come true by taking them on an outing to the studio! The children got to meet the artists and spend the whole day watching them record, listening through headphones and playing with the sound equipment—a dream come true!
St. Jude's is dedicated to helping children and defeating childhood cancer once and for all! Since its opening, it has managed to push the childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, according to their website.
Combined with dedicated companies such as Disney, talented artists, and a generous community, they truly hope to make a difference. Isn't it amazing what we can do when we all get together!
The brand new version was played on Radio Disney and reached out to listeners asking them to help raise funds and awareness for childhood cancer. It was incredibly successful and due to the popularity of the song, Disney managed to donate $25,000 to St. Jude according to the video description. Isn't that awesome?
Because of these amazing singers, Radio Disney and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital were able to make a huge step in the fight against childhood cancer. You can watch this video to see the amazing time they had recording the song.
