Smith has a voice that needs no introduction and with faith that needs no explanation. From the moment the Kentucky native was first introduced to America through “The Voice,” it was evident that his faith was part of his DNA. And now his beliefs take center stage as he steps into the next natural chapter of his career with new music and his new label family.

“Great You Are,” which Smith co-wrote with Jeff Sojka and Matt Armstrong, sings of God’s worthy praise, recalling Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem on a donkey as people greeted Him with palm branches. Smith and his co-writers leaned on Scripture that reminds us that the rocks will cry out if we fail to praise Him.

“I was just so moved by the idea that if I’m silent, the Lord will still find a way to be worshipped,” Jordan Smith exclaims. “He won’t miss out on anything because we don’t give Him the glory or the recognition or the worship He deserves. But I want so badly to be a part of that.”

He continues, “I’m really excited that this is the first single, and people get to hear that statement from me, and then people get to sing that statement as a commitment to God.”

“Great You Are” is the pinnacle of everything Smith has ever wanted to do. “Connecting people to God just feels natural, and it feels free, and it feels easy,” he admits. “I want people to experience the Holy Spirit. I want them to be uplifted, and I want them to feel God’s love and His acceptance through my music, even if they don’t know what that is, even if they don’t understand that’s what they’re experiencing. My lifelong dream is to be able to make music for the church and to just experience heaven with people.”

“Great You Are” Lyrics:
Every hour, every second
Every heartbreak, every blessing
You can have it all
Every dark night, every morning
I lay my life down here before You
You can have it all
My life sing hallelujah

I won’t let the rocks cry out
I’ll shout it from the mountaintops
Let everything I am reveal the glory of how great You are
I won’t let a breath go by
And miss the chance to lift You high
Let everything I am declare the story of how great You are

Every failure, every question
Let my worship be my weapon
You can have it all
Every hour, every second
Let my spirit reach the heavens
You can have it all

I won’t let the rocks cry out
I’ll shout it from the mountaintops
Let everything I am reveal the glory of how great You are
I won’t let a breath go by
And miss the chance to lift You high
Let everything I am declare the story of how great You are
How great You are

Every breath that I take it is for You
Every move that I make it is toward You
I will bow down my life here before You
Singing Holy, Holy

Every breath that I take it is for You
Every move that I make it is toward You
I will bow down my life here before You
Singing Holy, Holy

I won’t let the rocks cry out
I’ll shout it from the mountaintops
Let everything I am reveal the glory of how great You are
I won’t let a breath go by
And miss the chance to lift You high
Let everything I am declare the story of how great You are

How great You are

Every hour, every second
Every heartbreak, every blessing
You can have it all
