Carrie Underwood - Let There Be Peace Something In The Water Live From Hbo Maxs My Gift A Christmas Special From Carrie Underwood Lyrics

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
If I had one wish on my Christmas list
It wouldn't be for presents under my tree
They'd be no more tears for crying
No more wars for fighting
And every mothеr's child would have enough to eat

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So whеn I get down on my knees to pray
I ask the Lord above to light the way

[Chorus]
And 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

[Verse 2]
When I look in the mirror, all I wanna see
Is true compassion looking back at me
I wanna, I wanna love my neighbor
And be the hands and feet of Jesus
Take his love to the least of these
[Pre-Chorus]
All I'm asking to be the change
When I get down on my knees, I say

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Let there be peace, let there be love, let there be joy
For you and me
Let there be peace, let there be love, let there be joy
For you and me, for you and me

[Chorus]
Oh, let there be peace, peace to every nation
Let there be hope for all the world to see
Let there be love, yeah, and joy to all the children
Let there be peace on Earth for you and me

[Chorus]
Yeah, 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
[Post-Chorus]
Let there be peace on Earth for you and me
Let there be peace on Earth for you and me

[Verse 1]
He said, "I've been where you've been before
Down every hallway's a slamming door"
No way out, no one to come and save me
Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave me
Then somebody said what I'm saying to you
Opened my eyes and told me the truth
They said, "Just a little faith, it'll all get better"
So I followed that preacher man down to the river and now I'm

[Pre-Chorus]
Changed
And now I'm stronger

[Chorus]
There must've been something in the water
Oh, there must've been something in the water

[Verse 2]
And well, I heard what he said and I went on my way
Didn't think about it for a couple of days
Then it hit me like a lightning late one night
I was all out of hope and all out of fight
Couldn't fight back the tears, so I fell on my knees
Saying, "God, if you're there, come and rescue me"
Felt love pouring down from above
Got washed in the water, washed in the blood and now I'm
[Pre-Chorus]
Changed
And now I'm stronger

[Chorus]
There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water

[Bridge]
'Cause now I'm singing along to Amazing Grace
Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face
Got joy in my heart, angels on my side
Thank God almighty, I saw the light
Gonna look ahead, no turning back
Live every day, give it all that I have
Trust in someone bigger than me
Ever since the day that I believed I am changed
And now I'm stronger

[Chorus]
There must be something in the water (Amazing grace)
Oh, there must be something in the water (How sweet the sound)
Oh, there must be something in the water (That saved a wretch)
Oh, there must be something in the water (Like me)
Oh, yeah

[Outro]
I once was lost
(I am changed)
But now I'm found
(Stronger)
I was blind, but now, I see
