Grant made her debut in 1977 under the guidance of Myrrh Records, and became the first Christian recording act to have an album be certified platinum. Following her marriage to Gary Chapman in 1982 and a subsequent deal between her record company and A&M Records, a series of successful pop-crossover records consolidated her position as both Christian music's highest-selling act and a formidable force in mainstream music, and according to Billboard magazine she was the most successful Christian recording artist of the 1980s and 1990s.
After giving birth to her fourth child Corinna Grant Gill, Grant returned to her gospel music roots with the 2002 release of Legacy...Hymns & Faith. The album featured a Vince Gill-influenced mix of bluegrass and gospel and marked Grant's 25th anniversary in the music industry. Grant followed this up with the pop release Simple Things in 2003. The album did not see the success of her previous pop efforts, and soon after the album, Amy and Interscope/A&M parted ways.
Grant released a sequel to her hymns collection in 2005 titled Rock of Ages... Hymns & Faith. Despite publicly musing that life would be easier if she weren't working, Grant joined the reality television phenomenon by hosting Three Wishes, a show in which she and a team of helpers make wishes come true for small-town residents. The show debuted on NBC in the fall of 2005, but was cancelled in November after 10 episodes. After Three Wishes was cancelled, Grant won her 6th Grammy Award for Rock of Ages.
In a February, 2006 webchat, Amy stated she believes her "best music is still ahead".
Amy Grant recorded a live cd/dvd album in early 2006 and it was released later in the year.
To date Amy Grant has sold more than 25 million records worldwide and is a 6 time Grammy winning artist.
Everywhere I Go
Amy Grant Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh so sure to find somebody
Who'll never go
How could I know
None I'd found was true
None could be but you
The only one love divine
My heart, my mind are yours
[Chorus]
Everywhere I go
I see your face through the crowd
Everywhere I go
I hear your voice clear and loud
Everywhere I go
You are the light that I seek
Everywhere I go
You have found me
Where could my heart go
Where you wouldn't know to find me?
Far, far from here
Still you are near to me
[Chorus]
I have seen you in the evening
In the morning light you hold me
Closer than the air around me
You surround me always
Everywhere I go
I see your face through the crowd
I hear your voice clear and loud
You are the light that I seek
You have found me
[Chorus: Repeat x3]
The song "Everywhere I Go" by Amy Grant is a beautiful love song that expresses the singer's deep love for her partner. The lyrics begin with the singer confessing that she had been searching for someone who would be faithful to her, but she only found that person in her current partner. She acknowledges that her heart, mind, and body belong to this special someone who she sees as the only one divine love. This person is the one who stays with her always, and everywhere she goes, they are the only face she sees in the crowd, the voice she hears loud, and the light she seeks.
The chorus expresses this feeling of familiarity and unbreakable bond that exists between the singer and her partner. The line "everywhere I go, you have found me" demonstrates how the singer is always in the presence of her partner, even if physically, they are apart. The singer feels that her partner knows her inside out, and there is nowhere she can go where they wouldn't find her. This relationship is her anchor, and their love is boundless.
The last verse of the song adds to this longing, where the singer says she has seen her partner in the evening and the morning light. The person is always around her, surrounding her always, and closer than the air she breathes. The singer expresses that her partner's presence is not limited to a physical aspect but exists around her energetically. In conclusion, the song is an expression of a deep love shared between two people, whose connection is beyond time, space, and physical boundaries, and it is a love that always finds a way to bind them together.
