Platinum-selling singer-songwriter Thomas Rhett gave back to his beloved music community by creating a beautiful and inspiring song with some of his friends. With the help of creators like Reba McEntire, Hillary Scott, Chris Tomlin, and Keith Urban, Rhett released “Be A Light” to raise money for MusiCares Covid-19 relief efforts. This week, the song hit the number one spot on the charts, solidifying how amazing the record truly is.

If this feat wasn’t spectacular enough, what makes this truly more exciting is the fact that all the proceeds for this song go directly to helping people. It is clear that fans and radio alike got behind Rhett’s efforts of acts of service. The song has quite literally been a  positive light in what has been some very unsettling times for the world and the entertainment community.

“In a place that needs change, make a difference / In a time full of noise, just listen / ‘Cause life is a but a breeze, better live it / In a place that needs change, make a difference / In a world full of hate, Abe a light / When you do something wrong, make it right / Oh, don’t hide in the dark, you were born to shine / In a world full of hate, be a light”

This marks the singer’s 16th number one hit of his career. “Be A Light” joins songs like “Die a Happy Man,” “Beer Can’t Fix,” and “It Goes Like This” as some of Rhett’s biggest and best hits. Adding to all of the excitement, Rhett also recently made an additional contribution of $100,000 along with his label head, Scott Borchetta to MusiCares.

Be A Light

ACM Entertainer of the Year nominee Thomas Rhett released a new song Monday afternoon called “Be A Light”, featuring Reba McEntire, Keith Urban, Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott, and Christian singer Chris Tomlin. Rhett confessed during his Instagram Live mini-concert on Monday that he wrote this song last year and he’s thankful that his label allowed him to release it ahead of schedule. “We weren’t supposed to release this now but I really felt like this song needed to come out today.” All of the proceeds of this song are going to the COVID-19 Relief Fund for MusiCares. Administered through MusiCares, the COVID-19 Fund will be used to directly support those in the music community with the greatest need.

Watch the lyric video here:

“In a world full of hate, be a light / when you do somebody wrong, make it right / Don’t hide in the dark, you were born to shine / In a world full of hate, be a light”

This is the kind of encouragement we need in our world right now. It’s easy to be a downer and to think negatively about everything but it’s only making matters worse. Even in the darkest of time, there is always some good, and Thomas Rhett and company help us realize that.

“Be A Light” is available everywhere you buy or stream music.  Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music on our ‘New Country Music’ playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.
