Amy Grant

Woke up this morning
With you in our bed
Goin' over and over
Everything you said
Who taught you how to speak
The words that you say?
I've always wanted to be
Talked to that way

Love has made
Has made you unafraid

Watchin' my children
Findin' their way
Through struggles and trials
And the hardway
I hope the roads they take
Are making them strong
I'll still be on my knees
Long after they're gone

Love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made you unafraid

My lovely mother
Has gettin' on in years
And the way her body's agin'
Brings her girls to tears
The way she trembles
With such effort she makes
She just says heaven's getting
Closer each day

Cause love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made you unafraid

Love can make
Love can make
Love will make
Will make you unafraid

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”.
