More about this title

About the Artist: Michael W. Smith

Michael W. Smith is a singer, songwriter, and keyboardist who shaped contemporary Christian music across multiple decades. His career spans gospel, pop, and worship styles, with a gift for crafting accessible melodies that connect with broad audiences while maintaining musical substance.

Why we love this

Smith's gospel writing sits at the intersection of sincerity and musicality. This arrangement gives singers and pianists genuine material to work with, the kind of piece that sounds better the more you rehearse it because the harmonic language rewards attention and careful voicing.

What to expect

A declaration of faith wrapped in warm, approachable melody. The harmonic language feels modern yet grounded, creating space for emotional sincerity without veering into sentimentality.

Who it's for

Vocalists preparing material for recitals, auditions, or worship settings will find a song that plays to contemporary Christian sensibilities while remaining performance-friendly. Pianists accompanying student singers can use this to develop skills in supporting a vocal line with harmonic awareness and dynamic sensitivity.

How to get the most out of it

  • Let the piano support the vocal line without overwhelming it; the chords suggest texture and color rather than demanding thick voicings.
  • Work the lyrical phrasing before locking onto a strict tempo; this song lives in the space between the words.
  • Experiment with dynamic shaping across the verse and chorus to keep the declaration fresh and avoid a flat delivery.
  • Reference the original recording to understand the intended rhythmic feel, then adapt it to match your singer's natural cadence.

How to use it

Program this alongside other contemporary Christian selections for a worship or spiritual music recital, or use it as a contrast piece in a more traditional vocal program. It works equally well as a solo recital selection or as part of a choral worship service.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading piano/vocal/chord notation and realizing chord symbols
  • Balancing vocal phrasing with accompaniment patterns
  • Interpreting contemporary Christian style and language
  • Sustaining emotional expression through a declarative text
