Fresh off his 36th #1 song, "Waymaker", STILL brings an atmospheric listening experience of improvisational music coupled with inspirational scriptures.
Smith explains STILL as a "project that my wife, Debbie, and I have talked about for years. Our world is so full of noise that we sometimes forget to take a moment and simply be STILL and pray. My prayer is that this music will help the listener find moments to meditate with scripture." He describes STILL as a worship album that is more for individuals during their personal quiet times.
With the world currently unsettled and anything but calm, STILL provides a respite from the turmoil, and offers encouragement for the listener to be 'still' and rest in the comfort and awesomeness of our God.

An Album for Personal Worship| Posted October 24, 2020
I’ve enjoyed Michael W. Smith’s music since his debut album in 1983. Now 63, he has done just about everything in music, from pop, worship, instrumental, movie soundtrack, Christmas, etc. Still Vol. 1 is a very different Michael W. Smith album, and though I give him credit for trying something different, it won’t be everyone’s “cup of tea”, and it’s sadly my least favorite of Smith’s albums.
The album provides an “atmospheric listening experience of improvisational music” along with Smith reading scripture on the first five tracks. The final five are all instrumental. His prayer for the project “is that this music will help the listener find moments to meditate with scripture." Smith describes Still as a worship album that is more for individuals during their personal quiet times. There are also videos on Smith’s YouTube channel that accompany each song.
I believe the album will be enjoyed most during listener’s daily devotional and prayer time, or as quiet background music.
