Revisit the moment Wynonna sang like an angel alongside Della Reese

Some have called it one of the most powerful moments in television. It took place on Nov. 15, 1998 in an episode of the much-loved show “Touched by an Angel.” During the episode, titled “Psalm 151,” country star Wynonna Judd performed the song “Testify to Love” as a serenade to a little boy whose final wish was to hear his mom’s final song.
