Claire McCollum is in Ireland to meet the ever-popular Daniel O’Donnell as he celebrates his 60th birthday to find out how his strong Catholic faith motivates his life and his singing. Daniel takes Claire to Lough Derg, a special place of pilgrimage for him over the years. All the hymns and songs in the programme have been chosen by Daniel, including How Great Thou Art and I Watch the Sunrise, and there are two new performances from Daniel himself of Silent Night and I Will Pray For You.
