Carrie Underwood And Ben Fuller Take Us To Church With Their Latest Release

Country superstar Carrie Underwood has teamed up with gospel singer Ben Fuller to release an inspiring new song, “If It Was Up To Me.”

The song offers a poignant reminder that, by taking control of our own lives, we can easily miss the plans that God has for us.

“If it was up to me /
I’d take the easy ride /
But I’d miss the grace that changed my life /
Thank God I’m not the one in charge of things /
I’d never know how good Your plans could be /
If it was up to me…”

Who Is Ben Fuller?

Singer/songwriter Ben Fuller is outspoken about his past struggles with alcohol and drug addiction that caused him to fall “face-first” into a relationship with Jesus. The 38-year-old has been pursuing music in Nashville since 2018, and an encounter at a local church in 2019 inspired him to shift his focus to creating faith-focused music.

He shares his story through songs filled with “hope, mercy, and grace.” Fuller writes:

“Jesus has changed my life and He can change yours too.”

Ben Fuller teams up with Carrie Underwood for powerful new faith-filled single - ReachFM: Peace Country's hub for local and Christian news, and adult contemporary Christian programming.
