Up is part of the American Idol judge's new album, Born Here Live Here Die Here. He will next be performing the hit song and the rest of the album during his new Raised Up Right Tour, which kicks off 9 June in Charleston, South Carolina.
The emotional song details the star's country and religious roots, as he sings about his childhood, "crankin' that tractor up," and "keepin' that faith, waitin' on the day He calls us." Luke was born and raised in Leesburg, Georgia.

While most fans loved the performance and were delighted that Jordan kept his promise of joining Luke on stage, they couldn't help but note that it wasn't Luke's only performance of the night. While the majority of the show was live, the singer's performance wasn't, as he had another performance to attend at the Houston Rodeo.
