amy grant - after the fire

After the fire is over
After the ashes cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be is for you

After the stillness finds you
After the winds of change
All that is good and true between us
This will remain the same

Slowly, slowly
We turn the pages of life
Growing, knowing
It comes at quite a price

After the fire is over
After the ashes cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be here for you

After your time of wondering
Along this lonely road
There will be many voices calling
Mine will say welcome home

Slowly, slowly
We turn the pages of life
Growing, knowing
It comes at quite a price

After the fire is over
After the ash is cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be here for you
I will be here for you

amy grant - ageless medley

Are you living in an old man's rubble?
Listening to the father of lies?
If you are then you're headed for trouble.
Listen too long, you'll eventually die.

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

Are you puzzled by the way that you're behaving?
You wonder why you do the things you do?
Are you troubled by your lack of resistance?
It feels like something's got a hold on you.

Are you living in an old man's rubble?
Listening to the father of lies?
If you are then you're headed for trouble.
If you listen too long, you'll eventually die.

When I'm losing my sense of direction,
And I'm needing some strength and protection,
Walking away with You.
I go walking away with You, and when I,
When I think I can't stand any longer,
And I'm crying for someone that's stronger,
Walking away with You.
I go walking away with You.

El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonai,
Age to age, You're still the same,
By the power of the name.

El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
I will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.

I'm gonna fly.
No one knows where,
But I'm gonna fly.
I'm lighter than air.

And I'm gonna fly.
No one knows where,
But I'm gonna fly,
And soar through the air.

'Cause I have felt for the first time,
I can be myself,
No more faces to hide behind,
Just a smile,
And a dream that's mine.
Even if I am
The only one,
Who wants to fly

I may not be every mother's dream for her little girl,
And my face may not grace the mind of everyone in the world.
But that's all right, as long as I can have one wish I pray:
When people look inside my life, I want to hear them say,

She's got her father's eyes.
Her father's eyes.
Her father's eyes, ya know.
Just like my father's eyes (Sing, sing, sing!)

(Sing, sing, sing!)
(Sing, sing, sing!)

Sing your praise to the Lord,
Come on everybody,
Stand up and sing one more
Hallelujah,
Give your praise to the Lord,
I can never tell you,
Just how much good that it's
Gonna do ya,
Just to sing, sing, sing

Come on, sii-hii-yiing!
You know you really gotta sii-hii-yiing!
Come on, sii-hii-yiing! (Sing, sing, sing!)

I have decided,
I'm gonna live like I believer,
Turn my back on the deceiver.
I'm gonna live what I believe.
I have decided,
Being good is just a fable,
I just can't 'cause I'm not able.
I'm gonna leave it to the Lord.

Sing your praise to the Lord,
Come on everybody,
Stand up and sing one more
Hallelujah,
Give your praise to the Lord,
I can never tell you,
Just how much good that it's
Gonna do ya,
Just to sing, sing, sing.

Come on, sii-hii-yiing,
We've all gotta sii-hii-yiiiiiing!
Come on, sing, sing, sing!

amy grant - better than a hallelujah

God loves a lullaby
In a mother's tears in the dead of night
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

God loves the drunkard's cry
The soldier's plea not to let him die
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

The woman holding on for life
The dying man giving up the fight
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

The tears of shame for what's been done
The silence when the words won't come
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

Better than a church bell ringing
Better than a choir singing out, singing out

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

(Better than a Hallelujah sometimes)
Better than a Hallelujah
(Better than a Hallelujah sometimes)

amy grant - 1974

We were young,
And none of us know quite what to say,
But the feeling moved
Among us in silence anyway.
Slowly we had made
Quite a change--
Somewhere we had crossed a big line.
Down upon our knees,
We had tasted holy wine,
And no one could sway us
In a life time.

Purer than the sky,
Behind the rain.
Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love.
Love had lit a fire;
We were the flame.
Burning into the darkness,
Shining out from inside us.

Not a word.
And no one had to say we were changed.
Nothing else we lived through
Would ever be same the same,
Knowing the truth
That we had gained.

Purer than the sky,
Behind the rain.
Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love.
Love had lit a fire;
We were the flame.
Burning into the darkness,
Shining out from inside us.

Stay with me.
Make it ever new,
So time will not undo,
As the years go by,
How I need to see
That's still me.

Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love.

Yeah....

Burning into the darkness,
Shining out from inside us.

Purer than the sky,
Behind the rain.
Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love.
Love has lit a fire;
I am the flame.
Burning into the darkness,
Shining out from inside us.

Purer than the sky,
Behind the rain.
Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love. (Ohh....)
Love has lit a fire;
I am the flame.
Burning into the darkness,
Shining out from inside us.

Purer than the sky,
Behind the rain.
Falling down all around us,
Calling out from a boundless love.

Angel We Have Heard On High
Sweetly Singing O'er the Plain
And the Mountains in Reply
Echoing Their Joyous Strain

Come to Bethlehem and See
Him Whose Birth the Angels Sing
Come Adore On Bended Knee
Christ, the Lord, the Newborn King

amy grant - abide with me

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, O abide with me

I need Thy presence every passing hour
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be
Through the cloud and sunshine, O abide with me

Abide, abide with me
Abide, abide with me
I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless

I'll have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting?
Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou Abide with me

Abide, with me Abide, With me
Abide, abide with me
Abide, abide with me

amy grant - all i ever have to be

When the Weight of All My Dreams
Is Resting Heavy On My Head,
And the Thoughtful Words of Health and Hope
Have All Been Nicely Said.

But I'm Still Hurting,
Wondering If I'll Ever Be
The One I Think I Am.

I Think I Am.

Then You Gently Re-remind Me
That You've Made Me From the First,
And the More I Try to Be the Best
The More I Get the Worst.

And I Realize the Good in Me,
Is Only There Because of Who You Are.

Who You Are...

And All I Ever Have to Be
Is What You've Made Me.
Any More Or Less Would Be a Step
Out of Your Plan.

As You Daily Recreate Me,
Help Me Always Keep in Mind
That I Only Have to Do
What I Can Find.

And All I Ever Have to Be
All I Have to Be
All I Ever Have to Be
Is What You've Made Me.

amy grant - a christmas to remember

Twinkling Lights
A Chill Is in the Air
And Carols Everywhere
Close Your Eyes, It's Almost Here
Candles and Cards
And Favorite Movie Scenes
The Smell of Evergreen
As Special As It's Always Been
And I Have a Dream Or Two
Maybe They Will Come True

Chorus:
Setting Our Hopes On a Big Snow Tonight
We'll Wake Up to a World of White
It's Gonna Be a Christmas to Remember
Light Up the Fire, Play Some Nat King Cole
Always Sentimental and Don't You Know That
It's Gonna Be a Christmas to Remember

I Know It's True
Time Doesn't Stand Still
Many Things Can Change
But We Know Some Things Never Will
The Memories We Share
The Songs We Always Sing
The Mystery of Life
The Hopefulness This Season Brings
And I Have a Dream Or Two
Maybe They Will Come True

Chorus

amy grant - all right

Looking out
To the hills, to the setting sun,
I feel a cold wind
Bound to come;
Another change,
Another end I cannot see,
But your faithfulness to me

Is making it all right.
I fall down on my knees;
Tell me that it's all right.
You give me what I need.
Years of knockin' on heaven's door
Have taught me this, if nothing more,
That it's all right, what may come.

I've heard it said,
When the river's running high,
You get to higher ground or you die.
Well, muddy waves of pain
Washed over me,
And it only made me see,

It's gonna be all right.
I, I fall down on my knees;
Tell me that it's all right.
You give me what I need.
Years of knockin' on heaven's door
Have taught me this, if nothing more,
That it's all right, what may come.

When will I learn there're no guarantees?
What strengthens hope, my eyes have never seen,
But it won't be long
Till the faith will be sight,
And the heavens will say,

It's all right.
(All right.)
(All right.)
(All right.)

All right,
I fall down on my knees;
Tell me that it's all right.
You give me what I need.
Years of knockin'...heaven's door,
Have taught me this, if nothing more,
And it's all right.
Whatever comes.

All right,
Fall on my knees,
Tell me that it's all right.
You give me what I need.
(After all these) Years of knockin' on heaven's door,
(Years of knockin' on heavens' door,)
(It's gonna be) All right.
(Oooooh, yeah.) All right.
I fall down on my knees,
Tell me that it's all right,
'Cause you give me what I need,
(After all these years of knockin' on heaven's door,)
Years of knockin' on heaven's door,
(It's gonna be) All right.
Whatever comes, yes sir,
All right.
I fall down on my knees.
All right.

amy grant - angels

"take This Man to Prison," the Man Heard Herod Say,
And Then Four Squads of Soldiers Came and Carried Him Away.
Chained Up Between Two Watchmen, Peter Tried to Sleep,
But Beyond the Walls An Endless Prayer Was Lifting For His Keep.
Then a Light Cut Through the Darkness of a Lonely Prison Cell,
And the Chains That Bound the Man of God Just Opened Up and Fell,
And Running to His People Before the Break of Day,
There Was Only One Thing On His Mind, Only One Thing to Say:

Angels Watching Over Me, Every Move I Make,
Angels Watching Over Me!
Angels Watching Over Me, Every Step I Take,
Angels Watching Over Me!

God Only Knows the Times My Life Was Threatened Just Today.
A Reckless Car Ran Out of Gas Before It Ran My Way.
Near Misses All Around Me, Accidents Unknown,
Though I Never See With Human Eyes the Hands That Lead Me Home.
But I Know They're All Around Me All Day and Through the Night.
When the Enemy Is Closing In, I Know Sometimes They Fight
To Keep My Fight From Falling, I'll Never Turn Away.
If You're Asking What's Protecting Me Then You're Gonna Hear Me Say:

Got His Angels Watching Over Me, Every Move I Make,
Angles Watching Over Me!
Angels Watching Over Me, Every Step I Take,
Angels Watching Over Me....

Angels Watching Over Me....
Angels Watching Over Me.

Got His Angels Watching Over Me, Every Move I Make,
Angels Watching Over Me!
Angels Watching Over Me, Every Step I Take,
Angels Watching Over Me!

Angels Watching Over Me,
Angels Watching Over Me,
Angels Watching Over Me,
Angels Watching Over Me!

Though I Never See With Human Eyes the Hands That Lead Me Home....

amy grant - i surrender all

All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
I will ever love and trust him
In his presence daily live

I surrender all, I surrender all
All to Thee my blessed Savior
I surrender all

All to Jesus I surrender
At thy feet I humble bow
Worldly pleasures all forsaken
Take me, Jesus, Take me now

I surrender all, I surrender all
All to Thee my blessed Savior
I surrender all

All to Jesus I surrender
Lord, I give myself to thee
Fill me with thy love and power
Let thy blessing fall on me

I surrender all, I surrender all
All to Thee my blessed Savior
I surrender all

amy grant - be still and know

If you made me and you know me
Are you wanting to show me
Who I am and what you made me for
If I turn off the tv
stop chasing the same things
Would I hear You knocking at my door

I know there's more to living life that I see.
And You know I'll find it
in the quiet and believe

Chorus:

You say..
Be still and know that I am God
Be still, be still and know..

Are You waiting and watching
Whispering softly,
underneath the never-ending noise.
I'm not used to listening
But I'm curious wondering
Would I really hear Your voice

You know there's more to living life than what I see
And You know I'll find it
in the quiet and believe

amy grant - all that i need is you

Lord, You Know It's Been a Busy Day,
And I'm Just Weary to My Bones.
I Hope You'll Understand If I Don't Pray,
But I Need My Rest to Carry On.

Why Do I Kid Myself? You See My Heart --
The Me I Try So to Ignore.
And Lord, You See How Very Weak I Am.
I Just Can't Hide It Anymore.

But All of a Sudden I Knew
That I'd Never Be Wanting As Long As I'm Leaning On You.
Oh, Lord. All That I Need Is You.

Everytime When the Doubting Comes,
And I Seem to Lose My Way;
When I Cry Within,
'cause I Need a Friend,
But I Just Don't Say --
You Know That I Need You --
All At Once It's Clear
Even Though You're Here,
I've Tried to Make It On My Own.
I'm Not Trusting You.

Oh, Lord, You Know
That I Really Need Our Time Together?
Only Your Strength Can See Me Through,
So Talk With Me Now,
As You Walk With Me Now
In This Quiet Time.
I'm Waiting On You.

'cause All of a Sudden I Knew
That I'd Never Be Wanting As Long As I'm Leaning On You.
Oh, Lord. All That I Need Is You.

'cause All of a Sudden I Knew (I Knew)
That I'd Never Be Wanting As Long As I'm Leaning On You.
Oh, Lord. All That I Need Is You.
All That I Need
All That I Need Is You!
Is You!
Is You!

Is You.

amy grant - always the winner

Always the Winner, Baby.
You're Always the Center, Baby.
But Don't You Ever Get Lonely At Night
When the Clouds Have Gone Away?

It's Always,
You're Showing Her the Lady,
Always the Lady.
You're Full Of
Yourself, You Know,
Gone Crazy.

There Was a Time When You Cared For Their Hearts,
And the Need to Show Them Love Was Tearing You Apart.

But You Changed, You Know,
Become the Star of the Show.
Now You've Got Nothing to Give;
Where Is the Truth You Once Lived?

You're Just Lonely.
Don't You Feel Lonely?

Turn Out the Spotlight, I'm Tired. Turn Out the Spotlight.
My Mind Will Die, Lord, I'm Crying.

Oh, I'm to Turn My Gaze Back, Lord, to You,
You're the Only One Who Knows Me.
Just Mold Me Back to You.
