Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes, it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line

Oh, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose your side
Yes, it's too late for flirtin' with the darkness
Make up your mind

Oh, the time has come for making a decision
And you say you've found the light
But the talk is cheap when I see the way you're living
Walking in the night

Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes, it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line

Oh, it's too late for thinking you can walk the middle line...
Better get wise

You may think that you can live by your feelings
Different every night
But an emotional religion will crumble at our feet
If we're made to stand and fight

Well, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose you side
Yes, it's too late for flirtin' with the darkness
Make up your mind

Well, it's too late for thinking you can walk the middle line...
Better get wise

Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes, it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line

Oh, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose your side
Yes, it's too late for flirtin' with the darkness
Please make up your mind

Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes, it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line

Oh, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose your side
Yes, it's too late for flirtin' with the darkness
Please make up your mind

Amy Grant

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”.
