Amy Grant

Songwriter: Amy Grant

Where have you come from?
Where are you going?
Tell me what's brought you here now
And is your heart singing?
Then share what your bringing;
We all are a part of the show

'Cause we are all going home
'Cause we are a family
And we are all going home
Are you listening?
We are all going home
So come join the family
'Cause we are all going home

But is your heart quiet?
Is something not right?
Can you tell me what's blocking your way?
Well, just ask the Father;
He knows every problem
He'll carry that burden away

'Cause we are all going home
'Cause we are a family
And we are all going home
Are you listening?
We are all going home
So come join the family
'Cause we are a family
And we are all going home

Yes, we are all going home

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”.
