Carrie Underwood takes home top Christian song at 2015 Billboard Music Awards
Carrie Underwood took home Top Christian Song honors at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night.
Underwood has never been shy about publicly expressing her Christian faith, and Something in the Water talks about the importance of baptism and conversion as a means to changing your life : Theres somebody saying what Im saying to you / Opened my eyes and told me truth / He said just a little faith and itll all get better / So I followed that preacher man down to the river and now Im changed / And now Im stronger. The song ends with Underwood singing part of Amazing Grace.
Its really kind of a joyous, uplifting song about changing your life for the better and kind of having that a-ha moment, to waking up and your life being different from that moment forward, Underwood says .
Its rare for a song with such an overt Christian theme to find its way to the mainstream, but Something in the Water has become not only one of the biggest hits of the year, its also Underwoods longest-running No. 1 song to date. Songwriter Chris DeStefano tells Taste of Country it was obvious the song was special from the outset.
Its very humbling to be part of it,

Good for Carrie Underwood!
She's one of my favorite music artists. I still remember her winning American Idle.
