Backed by Chance the Rapper, Santa, and a slew of other celebrities, President Barack Obama belted out “Jingle Bells” at his final national Christmas tree lighting.

It was the 94th year of the tradition and Obama’s eighth and last time hitting a button to electrify an evergreen on the Ellipse, which the president acknowledged in his remarks.

“Before we leave tonight, I just want to express what an incredible honor it has been to serve this country, and feel its warmth, and to feel its generosity,” Obama said. “Our family has been awed by America’s goodness.”

This year’s show was hosted by Eva Longoria and featured performances by Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, The Lumineers, Kelly Clarkson, Marc Anthony, James Taylor, and Yolanda Adams. But besides the president’s musical stylings, Chance the Rapper stole the show with “Sunday Candy” (Sasha was even spotted singing along). The lighting will air on the Hallmark Channel on Monday, December 7—presumably without several high-profile slip-ups during the live event (among them, Brooks and Yearwood’s microphones didn’t work).

Still, that largely didn’t detract from the festivities, as the crowd was eager to bask in the current president while we’ve still got him. At one point, a chant of “four more years” and a cry of “Thanks, Obama” went up.

The president himself spoke of kindness and goodwill. “I hope we also focus ourselves on the message that this child brought to this earth some 2,000 years ago. A message that says we have to be our brother’s keeper, our sister’s keeper. That we have to reach out to each other forgive each other and let the light of our good deeds shine for all,” he said.

And Michelle Obama continued a tradition of reading ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, joined by Olympian Simone Manuel.
