Sovereign cover
12. The One That Really Matters (feat. Kari Jobe)
Album: Sovereign
Artist: Michael W. Smith
 

I feel You so close to me / I can hardly move or breathe / I can feel Your presence all around / I fall knees down to the ground
YOU’RE THE ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS / YOU’RE THE ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS / YOU’RE THE ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS / YOU’RE THE ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS
I know that I have been found / The cares of life can’t hold me down / ‘Cause You’re the one I want to please / What matters now is what You think // I can’t help but scream about the way that You moved in / Chaotic love has messed me up so I could live again


by Jennie Lee Riddle and Dustin Smith / Produced by Joshua Silverberg // Engineered by Joshua Silverberg and Jared Fox // Mixed by Christopher Stevens at fabmusic, Franklin, TN // Recorded at redredstudio Nashville, TN and The Manor, Franklin, TN Bass: Jacob Lowrey / Drums: Jacob Schrodt / Guitars: Joshua Silverberg and Stephen Leiweke / Cello: Cara Fox / Background Vocals: Bellarive © 2012 Jennie Lee Riddle Music / Tent Peg Music (BMI) (Div. of New Nation Music) (Admin. by Music Services)

Behind the Song:
My son-in-law Jack and I were talking one day about Dustin Smith, a worship leader from Kansas City. I had heard this song before but Jack started hyping it up again. I just had a gut feeling that I was supposed to cut it. It was the last song added to the album - ending this project and the recording process – and focuses on the fact that “WE” are not what really matters. He is! He is “The One That Really Matters.” So powerful, and a great exclamation point for the album! - Michael W. Smith
