Peace On Earth

Peace On Earth: A Christmas Album

“Weary world, rejoice tonight. Love has come, spread its light. The hopes and fears of all the years are meet in Thee tonight.”

Lyrics from *Bethlehem*, from my Christmas album *Peace On Earth* (2019).

If I could share one message this Christmas it would be this:

“Weary world rejoice tonight. Love has come, spread its light.
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in Thee tonight.”

Enjoy this lyric video for my song Bethlehem from the Christmas album.

“Wherever Kellie Haddock goes she is waking us up to greater intimacy with our Maker. She is no stranger to suffering both in her own life and in stepping into the brokenness of the world around us. As a songwriter and peacemaker she lives on mission to bring hope wherever she goes, whether it’s in conflict zones or sharing songs in someone’s living room. Her words and music inspire us, propelling us further up and further in like spotlights illuminating the path ahead...” - Ann Voskamp

More on the heart of Peace On Earth:

Kellie’s latest album Peace on Earth offers a set of Christmas songs that are infused with hope, speaking peace to our weary hearts.

Born from spending time in the Holy Land, sharing meals in Bethlehem with The Telos Group and crying beside refugees in Iraq with Preemptive Love Coalition. These experiences enrich these lyrics where weariness meets hope. Our culture straddles this tension. Wherever you find yourself amidst this story, as you soak in the music may you feel seen in the struggle and know you're not alone.

Co-produced with John Arndt (from The Brilliance), Peace on Earth brings 9 traditional carols + 3 new songs waiting for you to sing along.

Bethlehem, the last song on the album is the heart song I’ve waited my whole life to write. I can't sing these words without seeing my life encompassed, “The hopes and fears of all the years are met in Thee tonight.” These lyrics carry the weight of it all: widowhood, caring for a child with special needs, marrying again, the joys, the disappointments, the successes, the failures, the significant, the simple...all of it…That is why the celebration of Christmas is such good news.

Bright Christmas is a comedic song that makes fun of our arbitrary ideals of having a perfect Christmas, helping us focus instead on what matters more: the people we love.

Always Winter was inspired by The Chronicles of Narnia, where the White Witch made it always winter and never Christmas. We’ve all been in those seasons where the waiting and longing feels never ending, when it feels like what we hope for will never come, like ‘Christmas’ will never come. This song sits in that tension and points to hope.

This whole album has been such a gift and creating it has been deeply fulfilling. May it help your Christmas season be a little brighter this year. “Weary world, rejoice tonight. Love has come, spread its light.”

- Merry Christmas!
