Michael W. Smith Releases New Single “Your Love Is a Flood”

July 25, 2025 MichaelWSmith.com News 79

Listen to “Your Love is a Flood” HERE

Multi-platinum, GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Michael W. Smith releases powerful new single, “Your Love Is a Flood,” today across all streaming platforms. The track is the second release from his highly anticipated upcoming studio project and follows the critical acclaim of “Arms Around The Sun.”

Co-written by Smith and Jason Walker, “Your Love is a Flood” is reminiscent of the sound of his most beloved albums while pushing boldly into the sonic landscape of today. It welcomes every generation into the journey while drawing from his deep foundation of faith and worship. This music is what has always set Michael W. Smith apart.

“This is a song I’ve been working on for a long time,” shares Smith. “It’s one that’s stayed with me—because the message is so powerful. The love of God isn’t a trickle; it rushes in, overtakes us, and changes everything. I wanted the music to reflect that. I believe this song carries healing, hope, and deep encouragement for anyone who hears it.”

The lyrics themselves offer a poetic invitation into that divine overflow:
“Your love is a flood / And I’m dancing in the rain… / Heaven and earth colliding / Open the clouds, I feel it rising up.”

Produced by Smith, Tedd T, Bryan Todd, & Walker,  “Your Love Is a Flood” builds on the rich themes introduced in “Arms Around The Sun,” which explore the overwhelming love of God and the mystery of His greatness. That song featured actor and musician Jonathan Roumie (The Chosen, Jesus Revolution) on drums, along with an acclaimed music video filmed at Vū Nashville.

As the full project continues to unfold, these singles mark a deeply personal excitement for Smith to the roots of his faith and artistry—filled with reverence, honesty, and passion.

This fall Michael will embark on the fall leg of the Beyond the Far Horizon Tour, bringing new songs and timeless favorites to audiences around the world. Quickly following that, he will start on his beloved Christmas tour, this year joined by legends Amy Grant and CeCe Winans.

Fan Pre-Sale Begins Monday, April 21, at 10 a.m. Local Time

General On-Sale Starts Friday, April  25, at 10 a.m. Local Time

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – April 18, 2025 – GRAMMY® winners Michael W. Smith, Amy Grant and CeCe Winans have announced plans to co-headline the spectacular Christmas Together Tour this coming holiday season. The exclusive tour will hit nine major markets across the U.S., kicking things off Nov. 28 in Greensboro, N.C., making additional stops in Virginia, Maryland, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Georgia, before wrapping up on Dec. 8 in St. Louis, Mo.

A special pre-sale ticket opportunity will take place beginning Monday, April 21, 10 a.m. local time through Thursday, April 24, 10 p.m. local time. General on-sale will begin Friday, April 25, at 10 a.m. local time. Ticket information can be found at MichaelW.Smith.com, AmyGrant.com, or CeCeWinans.com.

While Grant and Smith’s holiday concerts have become one of the most heralded events of the season for more than 30 years, the Christmas Together Tour will mark the first time they’ve been joined by Winans on the holiday venture since she originally appeared on their 1998 Christmas tour.

“We all know Christmas is hands down my favorite time of year,” Smith told Billboard this week in an exclusive report. “And getting to tour with Amy always makes it even more special. But this year we’re taking it to the next level! We’re beyond excited to have our dear friend CeCe Winans join us. After so many years of touring together, adding CeCe’s incredible voice and spirit to the mix feels like the ultimate Christmas gift. To say that the three of us are thrilled about this tour is simply an understatement.”

“I’m so excited to be joining Michael and Amy for the Christmas Together tour,” Winans added. “There’s nothing like coming together with friends to celebrate the true meaning of the season through music, worship and joy. I can’t wait to share these unforgettable nights with audiences across the country.”

“I look forward to every moment of Christmas Together with Michael and CeCe, the rehearsals, the travel, the concerts,” Grant said. “We can’t wait to celebrate Christmas together and with all of you!”

The highly anticipated Christmas Together Tour will feature selections spanning the artists’ expansive Christmas repertoires and combine the vast collection of traditional classics and critically acclaimed holiday albums between them. Grant’s five studio Christmas albums have produced such holiday favorites as “Breath of Heaven,” “Grown-Up Christmas List” and “Tennessee Christmas,” among many more. Smith’s numerous chart-topping holiday offerings have also been staples of the season with favorites like “All Is Well,” “Welcome To Our World,” “Christmas Day” and more. Winans released the critically acclaimed Joyful, Joyful: A Christmas Album last year, featuring her rendition of “Joy to the World,” which rose to No. 6 on Billboard’s Hot Gospel Songs chart.

Michael W. Smith Releases New Single “Arms Around The Sun” Featuring Jonathan Roumie on Drums

April 11, 2025 MichaelWSmith.com News 132

NASHVILLE, TN – – Multi-platinum, GRAMMY® winning artist Michael W. Smith is back with a powerful new single, “Arms Around The Sun”, available now on all streaming platforms. The track marks the first single from Smith’s upcoming studio release—and while the full project is still under wraps, the excitement surrounding this song was too strong to wait.

“I just couldn’t hold this one back,” says Smith. “This song has lit a fire in me. I’m still in the middle of making the rest of the project, but ‘Arms Around The Sun’ felt too urgent—too alive—not to share it now. It’s the kind of song that reminds me why I do what I do.”

Produced by Tedd T. and Smith, and co-written by Smith and Michael Olson, “Arms Around The Sun” explores the awe-inspiring mystery of God’s love—too vast to fully grasp, yet close enough to feel. The lyrics swell with the kind of cinematic intensity longtime fans have come to expect from Smith.

Adding a unique layer to the recording is Jonathan Roumie—widely known for his role as Lonnie Frisbee in the 2023 film Jesus Revolution and as Jesus in the global phenomenon The Chosen—who makes a special appearance on drums. Roumie, also an accomplished drummer, is a close friend of Michael’s who came by the studio while the song was being recorded and jumped into the recording on a whim.

“There’s nothing that really comes close to the shared expression of playing music with people,” says Roumie. “It’s almost a chemical thing, it’s an ethereal sort of connection to ultimately the divine.”

The official music video for “Arms Around The Sun” was shot at Vū Nashville, a state-of-the-art virtual production studio, and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Harrison Shook. The visually stunning video captures the emotional gravity of the track while pushing artistic boundaries.

With lyrics that blend appreciation and wonder—“Trying to get my head around You / is like trying to wrap my arms around the sun”—the song continues Smith’s legacy of crafting music that inspires, challenges, and uplifts. Currently, Michael is about to embark on his worldwide Beyond the Far Horizon Tour.

The five-song worship EP features four classics including “In Christ Alone” and “Agnus Dei”  and also features a brand new song, “Crimson Dust”, which Smith wrote alongside Tony Wood.

 

On the new song, Smith says, “Crimson Dust, which I wrote with Tony Wood, sets the scene of the day of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. My prayer is that it reminds us how heaven touched earth and changed history that day. I love the thought of people around the world singing together ‘Holy, Holy, Holy, Jesus Lamb of God.’”

 

The first four tracks were captured live with the Nashville Recording Orchestra and a choir at the beautiful Fisher Center at Belmont University. This recording took place in 2023 as a part of an Easter Special in partnership with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
