'The Voice' Touching Tribute to Connecticut School Shooting Victims: Judges, Contestants Sing 'Hallelujah' during Series Finale Opening [VIDEO]

On Monday evening's episode (Dec. 17) of NBC's hit reality singing competition "The Voice," judges and contestants joined together onstage for a beautiful, touching "Hallelujah" tribute to the victims of the recent tragic school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut. Judges Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera, and Cee Lo Green took on major chorus lines with over 20 popular contestants singing in the background to open the first part of this season's two-part finale. The stage was illuminated with candles, and each individual in the choir held up a white placard with the name and age of an innocent victim who lost his/her life in Friday morning's devastating shooting.

Hosts Carson Daily and Christina Milian also joined the judges and contestants onstage Monday evening, as the crowd remained silent for the touching musical tribute. Watch the moving performance here:

The final three "Voice" contestants Cassadee Pope, Terry McDermott, and Nicholas David then took to the stage Monday night to give it their vocal best before the final votes come in for Tuesday evening's season finale.
