Surrounded

Multi-Platinum artist, best-selling author and acclaimed actor Michael W. Smith releases for the first time in his career two, all new albums in one month, both his studio album A Million Lights and the live worship album Surrounded from Rocketown Records and The Fuel Music.

With Surrounded, Michael's desire is to unify the Church's diverse expressions into one passionate, joyful cry of worship.

"The thought of doing another live worship project has been something I have processed for a while now. The question I have asked myself most is not so much what do I want to do, but what do I need to do.

What do WE need to do as His church and as His children? What expression of worship does He desire from us... have we missed something?The reality is, it is not the style of our expression He is concerned with, it is the heart.
He wants our honesty. He wants our vulnerability. He wants us to come to him as we are, not as we want to be.I feel God moving through His church and He is calling us TOGETHER.... to be one voice and one heart. One bride.
Every nation, every tribe, and every tongue. Every social class. Every denomination.Let's get together and rejoice! In what He has done, what He is doing, and what He has yet to do."

"What if we bring Him the thing that pleases Him most- our unity," implores Michael. "We may each have different stories, and skin, and songs, but we all share His same Spirit."

Leading a diverse chorus of voices, Michael's new worship album features 12 tracks, including the declarative "Surrounded (Fight My Battles)," and popular modern worship songs such as "King of My Heart," "Do It Again," and "Great Are You Lord."
