(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) December 14, 2011 - GRAMMY® award-winning and multi-platinum selling artist Michael W. Smith recently released his 23rd career project, and second instrumental album, GLORY, on Nov. 21. In light of the recent announcement by President Barack Obama relating to the return of our troops from Iraq, Afghanistan and other locations, Michael has offered gratis use of his song "Heroes," a cornerstone track on the acclaimed 12-song collection, for use in forthcoming news broadcasts relating to the return of our troops.

"We owe our veterans a debt of gratitude none of us can adequately ever repay," shares Smith in a recent interview about Glory.

The clip below was uploaded to YouTube by a Michael W. Smith fan and is an example of how this song can support a story.
