When catastrophic floods tore through Texas Hill Country in early July, Skyler Derrington narrowly escaped the devastation at the infamous Camp Mystic. The harrowing experience left her shaken — but also inspired.

In the weeks that followed, Skyler poured her emotions into music, rewriting the lyrics to the iconic song “Hallelujah” to tell her survival story. She recorded herself performing the haunting, heartfelt version, and the video quickly exploded online, drawing millions of views across social media platforms.

Her powerful voice and raw vulnerability struck a chord with viewers around the world. Messages of support poured in, many from other flood survivors who said her song helped them find hope in the aftermath.

The viral moment led to an unexpected opportunity: Skyler was invited to perform live on Fox & Friends. Her on-air performance, filled with visible emotion, was met with thunderous applause — and, once again, it went viral. Clips from the broadcast have been shared thousands of times, with fans calling it “one of the most moving live TV moments of the year.”

For Skyler, the attention is secondary to the message she hopes to share: that even in the darkest of times, there is still a song to be sung — and a reason to keep singing.

If you want, I can also rewrite this in a more dramatic, tabloid-viral style so it’s even more gripping for social media audiences. That would make it read more like a must-click headline.
