Michael W Smith to release new album, Wonder

Grammy Award winning American singer/songwriter Michael W Smith has set the tone for great pop music throughout his career.

Now he delivers 'Wonder', a pop-driven, emotionally charged project to be released on 28 September through integrity music

He has been back in the studio and working since January of this year on the project.

After his most recent and highly successful release, A 'New Hallelujah', Michael W Smith spent time on the road touring in the US and internationally, allowing him time to once again let his heart view the world we live in, and using his gift of music, begin to express the feelings and thoughts that arose out of these trips.

These moments, and other life milestones, were the genesis for his latest CD, 'Wonder'.

Ten new songs pack this new Michael W Smith project with subject matter that is sure to pierce your heart, backed by a relevant musical journey.

Smitty says, "These songs on this project are hopeful, anthemic and healing – musically and lyrically. I had a lot I wanted to say and the songs on this album allowed me to open up and do just that.

"Great songs are hard to find. I fell in love with 'Save Me From Myself' the first time I heard it a year and a half ago. And now, a year and a half later, I still love the hook, the chorus and just the bigness of it.

"The message is true to my heart: ‘You save me, save me from myself. There is no-one else I’d lean on. Save me, you save me from myself. There is no-one else to set me free."
