The Strong One is the second studio album by American country music artist Mila Mason, released in 1998 (see 1998 in country music) on Atlantic Records Nashville. Like her debut album, it was produced by Blake Mevis.

Her second and final album for the label, it produced two minor chart hits on both the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts and the Canadian RPM Top Country Tracks charts. The first, "Closer to Heaven", was a #31 in the US and #45 in Canada, while "The Strong One" was a #57 in the US and a #30 in Canada. The third single, "This Heart", failed to chart in either country, and by the end of 1998, Mason had exited Atlantic. "Let Me Cry" was co-written by Buffy Lawson, who founded the country duo Bomshel in 2004.
