Amy Grant

Songwriter: Lanier Ferguson

Once my life had
No direction
I was lost as could be
I was caught in a whirlpool (caught in a whirlpool)
Spinning around in misery

I needed a friend
You took me in
And you touched my heart
With your song of love
And gave me a brand new start

Now there's beautiful music
Flowing on through me
Just like you said
Angels singing
Joy bells ringing
Inside my head
Since you came inside me. (Since you came inside me.)
Now I'm lost inside your love

You gave me just enough
To make hunger
For more of you
Now I'm hooked on your lovin'
And I don't want to break loose

With my heart in my hand
I'm yours to command;
Do what you want me to
Just never let me go
Lord, I'm so in love with you

Now there's beautiful music
Flowing on through me
Just like you said
Angels singing
Joy bells ringing
Inside my head
Since you came inside me. (Since you came inside me.)
Now I'm lost inside your love

Beautiful music
Flowing on through me
Just like you said
Angels singing, (Angels singing,)
Joy bells ringing
Inside my head

Beautiful music
Flowing on through me
Just like you said
Angels singing, (Angels singing,)
Joy bells ringing
Inside my head

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”.
