Amy Grant

Mister Santa
Bring me some toys
Bring Merry Christmas
To all girls and boys
And every night
I'll go to sleep singing
And dream about
The presents you'll be bringing
Santa
Promise me please
Give every reindeer
A hug and a squeeze
I'll be good
As good can be
Mister Santa
Don't forget me

Mister Santa
Dear old Saint Nick
Be awful careful
And please don't get sick
Put on your coat
When breezes are blowin'
And when you cross the street
Look where you're goin'
Santa
We've been so good
We've washed the dishes
And done what we should
Made up the beds
Scrubbed up our toesies
We've used a Kleenex
When we've blown our noseies
Oh Santa
Look at our ears
They're clean as whistles
We're sharper then shears
Now we've put you on the spot
Mister Santa
Bring us a lot

By the time Amy Grant was nineteen, she was Contemporary Christian music’s most celebrated singer. Grant grew up in the Church of Christ where she sang for God two nights a week. As a teen, she decided to pursue a career in music, writing her first song while attending devotional meetings at her high school.

Grant recorded a demo while working as an intern at a recording studio and the owner was so impressed he signed her to his own label and released her first album Amy Grant in 1977. It spawned three top 10 songs on Billboard’s Christian Songs chart.

The following year, Grant began touring while balancing college studies. Her second album My Father’s Eyes was released in April 1979. At its record release party, she met future first husband gospel singer Gary Chapman. He’d written its title track, and it would become her first of many Christian Songs Chart-toppers. Her third album Never Alone came out in 1981 and features the #3 Christian Songs hit “Look What Has Happened To Me”.
