Kate McKinnon opened Saturday Night Live by singing "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen, while dressed as Hillary Clinton.

It was the first episode of SNL since Trump became the president-elect. McKinnon, who has played Clinton all election, wore a white pantsuit while sitting at a piano. Leonard Cohen, the "Hallelujah" singer, passed away Monday.

McKinnon delivered an emotional performance of Cohen's song, and as she finished her performance, she stared into the camera and said, "I'm not giving up and neither should you."

Watch McKinnon's performance below.
