Also on Easter morning (4/12), Dolly posted a live video of her performing her song "He's Alive."

She said in the vireo before she performed the song acoustically, "Well Happy Easter everybody, a little different this year, huh? This year we're gonna stay around the house a little bit, but that doesn't mean we can't worship the way we should, because we don't have to go to a building, a church to worship God."

Fans just loved the performance and many commented including one fan who wrote, "Hi dolly. Can you sing us bible songs every Sunday please xx."
