Michael W. Smith has served up a powerful music video for his song “Conversation,” which is set to a stripped down version of the track. Featured on Smith’s 2018 A Million Lights pop album, “Conversation” is more relevant now than ever.
“As I watched all the turmoil and division going on in the country, I couldn’t stop thinking about this song. I really wanted to create a music video to spark an open dialogue and hopefully evoke some positive change. I think the lyrics really speak to that as well and are more timely than ever,” Smith says.
Director, Scott McDaniel, chose exceptionally versatile and commanding imagery to capture Smith’s vision of unity for the video.

Lyrics : Michael W. Smith – Conversation
Oh these days I’m at a distance
Sirens scream but I don’t listen
There’s a million distractions I can’t escape
Like I’m sleepwalking now but I’m wide awake
And the picture I painted I want to change
Right now, right nowBring me into the conversation (conversation, conversation)
All my world, you can see them shaking, yeah
I’m staring at you, hanging on every word you’re saying
So bring me into the conversation, oh yeahOne by one we’re separated
What I thought was love just looked like hatred
I’ve been losing myself trying to prove you wrong
And right now all I know is I can’t go on
So I’m stepping across all the lines I’ve drawn
Right now, right nowBring me into the conversation (conversation, conversation)
All my world, you can see them shaking, yeah
I’m staring at you, hanging on every word you’re saying
So bring me into the conversation, oh yeahCon-on-on-versation, con-on-on-versation
Conversation, conversationI just wanna talk to you
I just wanna hear what you’re saying
I just wanna talk to you
I just wanna hear what you’re sayingBring me into the conversation
All my world you can see them shaking, yeah
I’m staring at you, hanging on every word you’re sayingCon-on-on-versation, con-on-on-versation
(I just wanna talk to you) I just wanna hear what you’re saying oh yeah
(I just wannna talk to you) Whoo hoo hoo
(I just wanna hear what you’re saying)
