All Right

Every once and awhile I hear an Amy Grant song playing over the mall sound system and it always sends me to my playlist to divulge myself in some classic songs of hers. I was listening to her always relevant "Lead Me On" album and I came across a song of hers that suddenly means more to me right now than it ever has before. In the song she simply talks about the fact that no matter what happens in life everything is going to be alright. I started to get kind of choked up while singing along (which I have a hard time NOT doing with her songs) and I believe it is because I needed to hear it. So, I want to share the lyrics with you, too.

All Right
by Amy Grant

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

[Chorus:]
All right
I fall down on my knees
Tell me that it's all right
You give me what I need
Years of knocking 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 fall down on my knees
Tell me that it's all right
You give me what I need
Years of knocking 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 will never see
But it won't be long
Till the faith will be sight
And the Heavens will say
It's all right
