Amy Grant
Image
Get outside. Watch the sunrise. Watch the sunset. How does that make you feel? Does it make you feel big or tiny? Because there's something good about feeling both.

I know my own weaknesses as a human being, and as a musician, as a singer and as a woman.
Amy Grant
Image
But to make a holiday record that involves favorite American songs and then also get to sing about Jesus birth, it just seemed like a real easy, subtle way to combine a couple of things that I love.

The most consistent musical experience I had growing up was church music.
Amy Grant
Image
I just think music is such a beautiful thing. It lifts the heart and buoys up your spirits - all kinds of music.

I think a woman can have all of the ideas and mental pictures. She can be a real planner and a motivator. But in the end, I think a woman does best when she responds to a man.

But my experience is that people who have been through painful, difficult times are filled with compassion.
