LOL christ I was in first grade when I heard this, I am a guy but was hummming it because it was the last song I had heard that day, my girl cousin was laughing at me, I told her I was not and to shut up.
I was in rehab in 1988 ~ quite the experience I must say ~ alcohol lowered my lithium level and gave way to paranoia ~ they pumped me full of drugs ~ LOL I made crafts and learned to play ping pong ~ it was a private hospital so the food was fabulous ~ just fabulous. I had two cassettes - this one and one I can't recall. I listened to this song and maybe an......it just came to me - the Special Olympics Christmas with Whitney Houston "Do you hear what I hear" .....
This reached #29 Pop, #7 Adult Contemporary in Billboard. Amy looks so YOUNG in this video... she was only 24 at the time. She was beautiful then, and still is beautiful today at the age of 50.
About Amy's being a maverick in the Christian music industry - again I say, good for her. I have heard she is also supportive of gay rights (and she has very many gay and lesbian fans, particularly gay men). I think she has shown the love of Christ much better than a Pat Robertson or Fred Phelps.
@Superbook4Eva Fred Phelps is just plain evil. All of Westboro Baptist Church are horrible. Check on Youtube to see what WBC does at the funerals of Vets.
i finishe reading a biography of amy grant a few days ago...i'm a fan...her career was calculated no different from michael jackson's or the beatles....she always intended to get her message out to the widest audience possible...if that meant going pop, so be it...she's also very honest about who she is and about being a woman...she not ashamed of her sexuality and doesn't try to hide...bascially, she's just saying it's cool to be you, god still loves you...
He lost a lot of money due to bad financial management which has come of a result of his consistent drinking habits. Sadly, he's been arrested a number of times on DUI in the last few years. His second marriage has also fallen apart because of all of this and his 2nd wife has divorced him.* As much as people want to fault Amy for her failed marriage. The proof is in the pudding and sadly, 10 years later, Gary has not gotten his act together*

I love this song and I love Amy! Thank goodness WE aren't going to judge her when we ALL stand before our creator, God. Let's just pray for her and encourage her. She's doing a great job reaching the lost with her talent! God bless you Amy....(I love the 80's .... my era)
Love Amy Grant she's awesome her split from the first spouse was tough, 2nd is a success. May she have a better life then what she had! Good tune she rawks!
She was the First Lady of Christian rock until she got into that duet with Peter Cetera, and split from her first husband and married Vince Gill. Don't get me wrong, I like the tune, but those decisions hurt her testimony for Christ, which is a pity.
@kja427 Very Judgmental of you dont you think? Everyone knows Amy and her roots are with Christian Music and her love for Christ, even today. The Secular music you speak of was not distasteful or wrong, which is how you make it sound, and which she has worked with some great artists! She still is and will always be the first lady of Christian Rock no matter what, and her testimony still stands as proof to that. So think twice before you judge someone about their personal life and decisions.
@kja427 If we were all to look at what we have done and think about how those thing hurt OUR testimony for Crhis, maybe we could forgive otheres when they make mistakes. The whole premise of Christianity is knowing that we are, indeed, sinners and will stand before a Holy God someday. Without Christ to stand with us, and for us, we are doomed to hell. That applies to all of us. Christians are not perfect, far from it. We are however, forgiven, as all can be, if they choose to be.
I'm a 45 year old MAN, and I admit it...I LOVE this song. The lyrics are inspiring, Amy's voice is in top form, the tune is catchy as all hell...this tune always has made me smile.
She is so cute in this, and is still gorgeous today. I loved so many of her songs and the messages within them. I practically grew up with the music in her 1991 and 1994 albums.
Amy Grant the only artist who mattered to me when I was a teenager, I had a bad teenage life and I was not religious, but listening to Amy's music got me through those dark days. Just great uplifting music.
amy proved that a christian girl could be cool...she was actually hot....her songs sounded more mainstream than christian...she even danced and encouraged dancing at her concerts...she wasn't as angelic as people thought
This is the song that changed my life. I was just 23 years old when this came out. I am 47 now. I credit this song and Amy Grant for my change then and now. Although, I always believed in God... I wasn't serving Him like I should have been. This song and album made me realize that in order to truly live, I needed to serve God. I made a change then and I'm proud to say, I am a better person for doing so. Peace
@DaveWollenberg Future(?) pop artist Michael W Smith. Uh. When this song was released MWS already had 3 albums under his belt, and several hits on the Billboard Christian chart
@AshleyHolmes26 Haha Yup, but the shoulder pads aint back yet. :p To be honest, I've been wearing these kinds of clothes since the 80's. I never really changed, I just adjusted. :p But some of the 80's styles were the worst fashion of all time, I swear. :p
I love how people on this thread keep quoting scripture...sure since of a hypo-Christian which means you really don't know what you're talking about, all you can do is quote scripture. Pathetic...
Thank you Amy for sharing your faith in the Lord through your music. I love the part at 2:20 where it goes "If our God His Son not sparing came to rescue you, is there any circumstance that He cant see you through?" This song made it on the secular radio back in the 80s. Its harder for a Christian artist to do that now.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"In such as man's vain misuse of my name, I shalt dwell on no such thing, for more vast exingencies dwell deep within my mind." Saith the Lord in Galoshes: 12;4.
I LOVED this song in 1985. Was one of the first Amy Grant songs I'd ever heard at that point. I remember taping it off the radio and listening to it over and over again. It's still such a great song!!
Amy LEE GRANT was born NOVEMBER 25, 1960 in Augusta, GA, meaning she turned 16 on the day NFL QB Donovan McNabb was born in Chicago, IL. Of course, Amy GRANT is not basketball player GRANT Henry Hill of Duke University & undistinguished NBA fame--despite her marrying fellow country recording artist Vincent GRANT "Vince" Gill (b. April 12, 1957). Before marrying GILL, she had been married to country singer Gary Chapman (1957), who shares an AUG. 19th birthday with 42nd prez Bill Clinton (1946).
Amy Grant is the most awesome Christian singer! I don't have to choose between Disney music or religious music, Amy offers inspirational music that now, in 2009, at age 11 I love Amy Grant's Music!!!!!!
Brings back memories. I love Amy Grant. She is one of the best singers in my book. And yes her dancing in this video reminds me of Elaine from Seinfeld. Still love her though.
And we didn't really dress like they did in music videos - well, maybe the jacket, but not with the gold shirt :) I totally had my "Amy Grant Jacket" and wore it when I sang her songs at school, in talent shows and stuff :) Mine was black with gold paisley. Very special ;-) Just about every guy I knew then was in so much love with Amy and thought her jacket (which she got all judged for - i still don't get that even a little bit) was very cool! Great tune!
She doesn't sing with a whole lot of emotion. My, this is so old. When I first heard this, I thought it was really cool. In a funny nostalgic kind of way, it still is. She is wearing the weirdest kind of leopard jacket and blouse!
LOL. I just rented her Greatest Hits video or something like that from Netflix and on the commentary, she said just about the same thing of herself :) I still don't know why everyone suddenly had to start being dancers as well as singers when vids got so popular!
These are great to watch - I love her "old" stuff. It's all so incredibly timely! Thy Word, El Shaddai... that is just great music!!
I used to have a VHS of a bunch of song of hers when I was about 8 and this was my favorite song. Funny it took a Lewis Black performance to bring back these memories lol
I remember hearing this song in the summer of 85. Even today, this song gotten me through a lot of tough times in my life. I can definitely relate to the first verse. When I hear this song, it puts a lot of things into perspective and hepls me deal with the phony people and haters in my life.
Absolutely Amazing Absolutely AMY!! this song reminds me as a perfect to have as a soundtrack,like for a great 80's song or a great Romance or something.
Remember this song from the skating ring...lol the 80's were something else! Saw her play in concert and for what her music is it was really a great show and she played a long long time.
Glad to see she is still active...the Word of God never stops !
I agree. The angels song is tight, but the video had me up in stitches. Found a mid-80s video compilation a couple of years ago with her 84-86 music videos. She's still awesome!
I remember this song when I was a kid. Its so awesome! Like her other Gospel hits. I love her other songs too( Angels watchn over me!)great songs Amy!
Real Christians don't throw stones. I hear so many out there quick to judge but if the Master appeared to them in the flesh ,they would be shut down so fast. Yet, the Master is still watching...
one of the few honest Christians out there, and of course the rest of the tribe tortured her because she wanted to be happy. why are Christians so damned irritating?
Amy Grant has got to be one of the most sincere, down to earth people out there. I remember when this first came out- her first pop single. I first saw the video on VH-1, when it actually showed videos.
I still have this VHS tape in my house.I am trying to buy a jacket like that one for my niece for a Christmas present; I have been looking now for 3 years.love this video.
This is when she did cross over to mainstream but it is the one song I will always remember her for. You cannot listen to it and not feel better. There are few songs today we can say that about that were played on the radio extensively as this one was, not just Christian stations. The video played in nightclubs and the message spread to many people. The video is great.
"If our god, his Son not sparing"...That line has always hit me hard. When a major marital crisis hit me in 1999, I heard this song again while in the hospital and it helped a lot. (and no, it was NOT domestic Violence)Because the Lord did see me through.
I had a bit of a crush on Amy when I was younger, thanks in part to this video (which I first saw after 'Baby Baby' was released). But, due to my secular views, I was indifferent to her religious messages. I just thought she was cute, wholesome, and sang catchy songs with a lovely voice.
AMY Vs. MADONNA? ther's no comparsison. Amy has lived her life; her music to share her faith> Madge has shown us her body parts and her other worldliness. Amy! how refreshing! and SHE DOES SELL OUT her concerts and has a lovely fan base of lovely folks like here. AMY IS THE BEST and more talented any day
Yeah, I remember Madonna telling us that she wouldn't want her daughter watching her music videos because they are so sexual. I'd have no problem showing my kids Amy Grant videos.
In the 80's, while Madonna was out making a fool of herself, Amy Grant played it low key. The media didn't pay her as much attention because she wasn't a whore. Obviously, her voice is so much better than Madonna's. Amy Grant is a gift from God.
I see what you mean. When the MTV generation was calling on AG to dress up provacably, etc, she remained true to her heart's convections. Madonna was a horrible role model and Amy, well she was a lovely and better alternative. I OWN ALL AG's music--and not a one of Md. Why?: A's music ministers to me
Where do you get off calling Madonna a whore? Madonna sings pop music, back in the 80's Amy was crossing over. Madonna is not as good of a vocalist but obviously has more overall talent since I don't see Amy in movies and selling our arena concerts. Don't speak of God and be so judegment in the same sentence. Go back and read the bible so you can learn how to be a respectful person to all people.
Let's not get overexcited, first of all about people calling Madonna a whore after she spent YEARS cultivating her bad-girl image, and secondly about Madonna's acting, which has been about 1/3 typecast (Dick Tracy), 1/3 good (Desperately Seeking Susan) and 1/3 remarkably bad (Swept Away).
Wow I don't think I have ever heard this one. I am just going to take a random guess here it was made in the 80's right? I don't why I would think that? LOL. I am guessing 1985 or 86 it just feels that way. I like this song it is catchy. Her music is so positive.
How old was Amy Grant in this video?

She doesn't sing with a whole lot of emotion. My, this is so old. When I first heard this, I thought it was really cool. In a funny nostalgic kind of way, it still is. She is wearing the weirdest kind of leopard jacket and blouse!

I got introduced to Amy Grant's music at YMCA Camp in the summer of 1984.
Amy Grant is/was gorgeous but let's face it, she dances like Elaine Benis on Seinfeld.

LOL. I just rented her Greatest Hits video or something like that from Netflix and on the commentary, she said just about the same thing of herself :) I still don't know why everyone suddenly had to start being dancers as well as singers when vids got so popular!
These are great to watch - I love her "old" stuff. It's all so incredibly timely! Thy Word, El Shaddai... that is just great music!!

I remember hearing this song in the summer of 85. Even today, this song gotten me through a lot of tough times in my life. I can definitely relate to the first verse. When I hear this song, it puts a lot of things into perspective and hepls me deal with the phony people and haters in my life.

Amy Grant has got to be one of the most sincere, down to earth people out there. I remember when this first came out- her first pop single. I first saw the video on VH-1, when it actually showed videos.

This is when she did cross over to mainstream but it is the one song I will always remember her for. You cannot listen to it and not feel better. There are few songs today we can say that about that were played on the radio extensively as this one was, not just Christian stations. The video played in nightclubs and the message spread to many people. The video is great.

I had a bit of a crush on Amy when I was younger, thanks in part to this video (which I first saw after 'Baby Baby' was released). But, due to my secular views, I was indifferent to her religious messages. I just thought she was cute, wholesome, and sang catchy songs with a lovely voice.

AMY Vs. MADONNA? ther's no comparsison. Amy has lived her life; her music to share her faith> Madge has shown us her body parts and her other worldliness. Amy! how refreshing! and SHE DOES SELL OUT her concerts and has a lovely fan base of lovely folks like here. AMY IS THE BEST and more talented any day

Yeah, I remember Madonna telling us that she wouldn't want her daughter watching her music videos because they are so sexual. I'd have no problem showing my kids Amy Grant videos.

Remember (quoting the media whore herself)..."It's all about the music. It's ALWAYS been all about the music."
...which explains the Sex book and her making out with Sandra Bernhard.

In the 80's, while Madonna was out making a fool of herself, Amy Grant played it low key. The media didn't pay her as much attention because she wasn't a whore. Obviously, her voice is so much better than Madonna's. Amy Grant is a gift from God.

I see what you mean. When the MTV generation was calling on AG to dress up provacably, etc, she remained true to her heart's convections. Madonna was a horrible role model and Amy, well she was a lovely and better alternative. I OWN ALL AG's music--and not a one of Md. Why?: A's music ministers to me
veelighted7 3 years ago
Where do you get off calling Madonna a whore? Madonna sings pop music, back in the 80's Amy was crossing over. Madonna is not as good of a vocalist but obviously has more overall talent since I don't see Amy in movies and selling our arena concerts. Don't speak of God and be so judegment in the same sentence. Go back and read the bible so you can learn how to be a respectful person to all people.
dan242242 3 years ago
Let's not get overexcited, first of all about people calling Madonna a whore after she spent YEARS cultivating her bad-girl image, and secondly about Madonna's acting, which has been about 1/3 typecast (Dick Tracy), 1/3 good (Desperately Seeking Susan) and 1/3 remarkably bad (Swept Away).
