Vincent Grant Gill, who popularly goes by Vince Gill, is an American country music singer, songwriter and musician. Recently, he paid an emotional tribute to his wife, singer Amy Grant, who is recovering from a bicycle accident.

Vincent performed a duet with their daughter, Corrina Grant Gill,  near the end of his show Thursday at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. The lyrics of his 2019 single “When My Amy Prays” were poignantly changed to “when my mama prays” as Corrina, 21, sang along during the third night of Gill’s four-night residency celebrating the venue’s 130th anniversary.

Amy, 61, struck a pothole on July 27 while riding near a golf course with a friend, her representative Velvet Kelm confirmed to USA TODAY. She spent two nights at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where doctors treated her for injuries.
