Jennifer Lopez took the stage at Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration on Wednesday, providing her own twist on a heartfelt medley of patriotic songs.

Following Lady Gaga’s performance of the national anthem, J. Lo kicked off her performance with a rendition of Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land” before moving into “America the Beautiful.”

Near the end of her performance, Lopez broke in with a spoken message in Spanish: “Una nación, bajo Dios, indivisible, con libertad y justicia para todos,” which translates to a line from the nation’s Pledge of Allegiance: “One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
