Amy Grant

We are all the same it seems
Behind the eyes
Broken promises and dreams
In good disguise
All we're really looking for
Is somewhere safe and warm
The shelter of each other in the storm

Maybe one day
We can turn and face our fears
Maybe one day
We can reach out through the tears
After all it's really not that far
To where hope can be found
Maybe one day
We can turn this world around

You can trace the path of time
Not you and me
The twisting road we call our lives
We cannot see
TTe hunger and the longing
Every one of us knows inside
Could be the bridge between us if we try

Maybe one day
We can turn and face our fears
Maybe one day
We can reach out through the tears
After all it's really not that far
To where hope can be found
Maybe one day
We can turn this world around

After all it's really not that far
To where hope can be found
Maybe one day
We can turn and face our fears
Maybe one day
There'll be laughter in our tears
After all it's really not that far
To where hope can be found
Maybe one day
We can turn this world around
We can turn this world around
Maybe we can one day
Turn this world around
Oh, let's turn this whole world around

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”.
