AMY GRANT Unguarded Lyrics
1.Love of Another Kind

Written:Wayne Kirkpatrick/Richard Mullins/A.Grant/G.Chapm

They say love is cruel
They say love is rather fragile
But I've found in You
A love of another kind

They say love brings hurt
I say love brings healing
Understanding first
It's a love of another kind

(Bridge)
The love I know
Is a love so few discover
They need to know
Jesus' love is like no other

They say love won't last
I say love is never ending
Cause in You I have
A love of another kind

They would change their tune
They would add another measure
If they only knew
This love of another kind

They would change their tune
They would add another measure
If they only knew
This love of another kind

(Repeat Bridge)
(Repeat Verses)

Love of another kind...


2.Find A Way

Written:Amy Grant/Michael W.Smith

You tell me your friends are distant
You tell me your man's untrue
You tell me that you've been walked on
And how you feel abused

So you stand here an angry young woman
Taking all the pain to heart
I hear you saying you want to see changes
But you don't know how to start

Love will find a way (How do you know)
Love will find a way (How can you see)
I know it's hard to see the past and still believe
Love is gonna find a way
I know that
Love will find a way (A way to go)
Love can make a way (Only love can know)
Leave behind the doubt
Love's the only out
Love will surely find a way

I know this life is a strange thing
I can't answer all the why's
Tragedy always finds me
Taken again by surprise

I could stand here an angry young woman
Taking all the pain to heart
But I know that love can bring changes
And so we've got to move on

(Repeat Chorus)

If our God His Son not sparing
Came to rescue you
Is there any circumstance
That He can't see you through

(Repeat Chorus)


3.Everywhere I Go

Lyrics:Mary Lee Kortes
Music:Mary Lee Kortes

I was wasting time
Oh so sure to find somebody
Who'd 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

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 see
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

(Repeat 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

(Repeat Chorus)


4.I Love You

Written:Amy Grant/Michael W.Smith/Dann Huff

You were pretty crazy
Back when we fell in love
wanting to be everything
That I would be proud of
Hours we spent dreaming
How we'd beat the odds
Now the truth has hit us
Life is very hard
Life can be so hard

I love you
Deeper than I ever dreamed of
I need you
Staying here 'til we can work it out
I want you
Knowing that through all the changes
I love you
Somehow I just had to tell you now

Oh to stay your princess
If I only could
If you never saw the rotten
Only saw the good
You'd still be prince charming
But we would never know
How it's in the darkest times
True love finally grows
Come on true love grow

(Repeat Chorus)

You got me, I got you
Sometimes it takes a little working through
But I can tell you now

(Repeat Chorus)
I love you...


5.Stepping in Your Shoes

Lyrics:Chris Eaton/Amy Grant
Music:Chris Eaton

Like it or not
Life is ours for the living
Only one shot
What's the advice you're getting
Work hard in school
Learn the good rule and
Try to make good for you

No one could see
Hanging within the balance
Helpless me
I only want help to hear me
Evil and light
Caught in a fight
They're trying to capture me

But you cared about me now
Now and forever

There'll never be anyone
Who can take the place of you
There'll never be anyone
Giving it all to pull me through
There'll never be anyone
Stepping in your shoes

Only through you
Sin on innocent shoulders
Could you undo
Darkness' power to hold us
Once for all time
Choosing to die
I'll never deserve you
And you cared about me now
Now and forever

(Repeat Chorus)


6.Fight

Written:Amy Grant/Dann Huff/Gary Chapman

You know some days I like me
Some days I don't
Some days I try with passion
Sometimes I won't
I might just hold my guard up
And lock my heart up tight
But it's the door that's open
Letting in the light
There's a battle raging
Inside of me
It's a holy struggle
And it won't let go of me

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

I used to sit and ponder
If I'd be fine
If Jesus lived His own life
And I lived mine
But love is such a magnet
It pulled me night and day
Until my needy heart
Just couldn't stay away
Life can drive you crazy
Or just about
But even when it's most frustrating
This kid's not walking out

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
Sure it's tough but I won't deny it
No no no
I don't want to waste my life hiding
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

I've made up my mind now
I don't want to lose out now (unguarded)
Beginning to see now
What the fight is about (unguarded heart)
I gotta stay open
Keep defenses all down (unguarded)
Don't want to be hiding
When the love comes round

(Repeat Choruses)


7.Wise Up

Written:Wayne Kirkpatrick/Billy Simon

Got myself in this situation
I'm not sure about
Climbing in where there's temptation
Can I get back out
I never can quite find the answer
The one I want to hear
The one that justifies my action
Says the coast is clear
something on the outside
Says to jump on in
Something on the inside
Is telling me again

Better wise up
Better think twice
Never leave room for compromise
You better wise up
Better get smart
And use your head to guard your heart
It's gonna get rough
So you better wise up

Take a look at your intentions
When you have to choose
Could it be that aprehension
Might be telling you
To back off now is better
So take your heart and run
But get your thoughts together
Before they come undone

(Repeat Chorus)

To back off now is better
So take your heart and run
But get your thoughts together
Before they come undone

(Repeat Chorus)

Better wise up...


8.Who To Listen To

Written:Gary Chapman/Tim Marsh/Mark Wright

Don't take a ride from a stranger
No way to know where they go
You may be left on a long dark road
Lost and alone
Don't you recall what your Mama told
You've got to learn hot from cold
When you're afraid that you might get burned
Where do you turn

You've got to know who to
Who not to listen to
You've gotta know who to
Who not to listen to
They're gonna hit you from all sides
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to

How can you learn what is true and just
How to know who to trust
Here comes a man with a scam to sell
How can you tell
You've got to know there's a bigger plan
Room to fall, room to stand
Pray for the plan to begin in you
Keep your heart true

(Repeat Chorus)

Everyone will have their words to say
Find the word to help you find your way

(Repeat Chorus)


9.Sharayah

Lyrics:Chris Eaton/Amy Grant
Music:Chris Eaton

I've know you long as anybody
You know me better than the rest
Please don't say we don't see eye to eye now
Friend to friend can you tell me this

Tell me tell me where do you belong
I guess you've no idea
Tell me tell me where do you come from
Tell me tell me why do you pretend to know
Listen to me now
He loves you
Listen to me now
He cares for you
Listen to me now
He wants you to come home

Sharayah
I care about you
I don't want to push you
Sharayah
I care about you
I don't want to lose you now
I don't want to lose you now
Come with me...Sharayah

Call his name that is all He's asking
Let Him come down to where you are
You can have life that's everlasting
Can't you see this is just the start

Tell me tell me where do you belong
I guess you've no idea
Tell me tell me where do you come from
Tell me tell me why do you pretend to know
Listen to me now
He loves you
Listen to me now
He cares for you
Listen to me now
He wants you to come home

(Repeat Chorus)


10.The Prodigal(I'll Be Waiting)

Written:Amy Grant/Gary Chapman/Robbie Buchanan
Arranger:Robbie Buchanan

I face the day again
Against the window pane
I remain your closest friend
And wish you back again
You wonder how I feel
You think you've pushed too foar
If only you could see this pen
Scribbling down my heart

I'll be waiting
I may be young or old and gray
Counting the days
But I'll be waiting
And when I finally see you come
I'll run when I see you
I'll meet you

But still the days drag on
Why did you decide to go
Did you only need to see
What only time can show

(Repeat Chorus)

And even if
You never do return
Still I will have learned
How to love you bettter

(Repeat Chorus)
