Kimberly Lynn Hill (born December 30, 1963 in Starkville, Mississippi) is an American contemporary Christian music singer, songwriter and guitarist.

Hill attended Mississippi State University where she participated in volleyball and track and field. She also played in a band that featured Clark Leake, future member of the Christian rock band The Waiting. She moved to Nashville, Tennessee, where she signed her first record deal with Word Records' Reunion label and has released three Christian albums. Hill temporarily left Christian music in 1994 to pursue a career in country music. Her country track and music video for "Janie's Gone Fishin'" was the most viewed video on CMT (Country Music Television).

Hill returned to Christian music in 1997 with a new passion. At the time, she has served as worship leader for women's conferences sponsored by the American Evangelical Protestant organization Focus on the Family. Hill was married to former Auburn University football player Rob Shuler. While married, the couple produced two sons: Benji Shuler (former member of the Christian Pop trio 3for3) and Graham Shuler (former Stanford Cardinal football player). Hill and Shuler later divorced.

As of 2021, Hill is co-owner (with Paulette Wooten) of The Treehouse, a women's retreat property in North Carolina. She and Wooten formed the musical duo Wooten Hill and produced the four-track extended play (EP) Is It Alright in 2020. Wooten Hill recently released a new digital single, "Mercy Now," in 2025.
