'Let There Be Peace' Carrie Underwood Pens Uplifting Song - Staff Picks

Carrie Underwood shares a prayer for the world with the beautiful words of ‘Let There Be Peace.’ This holiday tune reminds us all that God is in control. “Let there be peace Peace to every nation Let there be hope For all the world to see Let there be love And joy to all the children Let there be peace on earth For you and me” Carrie became a household name after winning the fourth season of American Idol back in 2005. She won over the hearts of America with covers of songs such as Bonnie Raitt's "I Can't Make You Love Me" and “Bless The Broken Road” from Rascal Flatts. After her win, she quickly climbed the country charts and made a solid name for herself in the country music world. It’s been nearly 15 years since that momentous audition and Carrie is still releasing hit after hit. ‘Let There Be Peace’ is the debut single from Carrie’s first full-length Christmas album, My Gift. She said, “I think it’s turned out to be the perfect time for an album like this, in this period of such personal and spiritual reflection. For me, it’s more important than ever to focus on the true meaning of Christmas in a project like this.” “I wanna, I wanna love my neighbor And be the hands and feet Of Jesus Take His love To the least of these” John 16:33 “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
