Carrie Underwood releases her first gospel album 'My Savior'
The singer is returning to her roots in her latest album
Carrie Underwood has been keeping herself busy this year. Just six months after releasing her holiday album, My Gift, she released her first full-length gospel album titled My Savior.
This is not the first time the Grammy winner has released music sharing her faith. In the past, she has put out hot singles like Jesus Take The Wheel, which gave fans an insight into her spirituality. This latest album will mark her first release of music fully dedicated to gospel-inspired music.

In a press interview with TODAY, Carrie talked about how the album features music she grew up singing.
"I sang these songs when I was little and now as an adult, they hold such a higher purpose and deeper meaning for me singing those lyrics," she said. "You never know who is gonna need whatever song it is you're putting out, whether it's something sassy or whether it's something really deep and meaningful."
