Faith Hill's debut album was Take Me As I Am (1993); sales were strong, buoyed by the chart success of "Wild One". Faith Hill was delayed in the recording of her second album by surgery on her vocal cords. It Matters to Me finally appeared in 1995 and was another success, with the title track becoming her fourth #1 country single.

Faith Hill began the Spontaneous Combustion Tour with country singer Tim McGraw . When he later proposed marriage to her in one of his tour trailers, he had to go perform right then, so she took a permanent marker and wrote her answer on the mirror. Hill after touring with McGraw married him on October 6, 1996.

Faith Hill's 1998 album, Faith, moved her closer towards a mainstream, pop-oriented sound. "This Kiss" became a #1 country hit, and went to #7 on the pop charts.
Faith Hill's fame grew rapidly as she signed an endorsement deal with CoverGirl makeup and released Breathe, an even more successful pop hit that became one of the biggest albums of 2000. The title track "Breathe" was the #1 pop airplay song that year and has become Hill's signature song; especially notable is the power and control she shows in her lower register during the song. "The Way You Love Me" hit the top ten as well (#7), and becoming one of the longest running singles in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 (57 weeks). The album won Hill three Grammy Awards including Best Country Album.
The year 2000 was also very successful in a concert setting as Faith Hill and Tim McGraw staged the joint Soul2Soul Tour, one of the best-grossing concert tours of 2000. By the holidays she had contributed "Where Are You Christmas?" to the movie How the Grinch Stole Christmas; this gospel-flavored song became very popular on the all-Christmas-all-the-time holiday formats that American radio stations adopted in the 2000s.
Faith Hill recorded the Diane Warren penned "There You'll Be" for the Pearl Harbor soundtrack the following summer. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, Hill showed her gospel colorings again when she performed "There Will Come a Day" on the America: A Tribute to Heroes benefit telethon. At the end of 2001, Faith released her first collection called "There You'll Be" which reached top 30 of the Italian album chart and #6 on the UK album chart selling nearly 1 million copies worldwide.

In 2002, Faith Hill released Cry. Though the album debuted at #1 on Billboard magazine's pop and country album charts, its singles (including the title track, written and originally performed by Angie Aparo) received much less radio airplay than her previous smashes. In fact, country radio pretty much ignored the songs, considering them "too pop". The album did win one Grammy Award and has sold nearly 3 million copies worldwide.

Faith Hill co-starred with Nicole Kidman and Matthew Broderick in director Frank Oz's remake of the 1975 thriller The Stepford Wives in 2004.

Faith Hill references this sojourn in Hollywood as well as the chilly reception of Cry in the 2005 country release "Mississippi Girl", the first single from her back-to-roots album Fireflies. It worked, as the song restored her to the top of the country charts. "Mississippi Girl" is her 8th song to have reached #1.

Faith Hill performed this song along with "Breathe" and "Piece of My Heart" at the Live 8 concert in Rome on July 2, 2005, where McGraw also performed. The second single, "Like We Never Loved At All", featured a duet with McGraw and reached the top five of the country chart, as well as winning the duo a Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals. The third single from the album was the song "The Lucky One". The song was released to country radio in February 2006 and peaked at #5 on the Billboard Country Singles chart.
Faith Hill's album Fireflies has sold more than 2 million copies in the U.S. and was certified double platinum on January 2006.

On the same month, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw decided to reprise their Soul2Soul Tour. The co-headlining arena tour, dubbed Soul2Soul II Tour 2006, began on April 21 and will run through Labor Day, with a total of about 70 dates in the works.

Faith Hill is a godess...In June 2006 a reader poll released by Country Weekly magazine voted Faith Hill "the most beautiful woman in country music".
