Amy Grant Album: “Her Greatest Inspirational Songs”

This is not an album of singles nor is it an album of greatest hits through her career. It is, however, an album of personal love songs to Jesus.

These songs are from her early career in the late '70s and early '80s. Think of it as a synopsis of her born again Christian life. Very uplifting simple songs you can sing along to.

This is like an extension of her THE COLLECTION album. There really wasn't a need for this album but it's nice to have just because it's different songs in different order.

As other reviewers have noted, if you're new to Amy Grant, this is a perfect CD. Most of my favourite pieces from her early years are here.

On the other hand, if you are a die hard Amy fan and have all her earlier CD's, definitely skip this one. There is nothing new here. I mistakenly thought she had re-recorded her old hits in her new, more mature voice, but it's just cuts from her old CD's. I didn't need one more "old" Amy Grant CD; my shelf is full of them.

So, a great compilation of old hits for those getting acquainted with the young Amy (which I recommend!), but old hat if you caught on 20 years ago.

I got this CD last week and overall I like it. Sure there is no news songs on it but since it is a Greatest hits cd from Amys early years I did not expect there to be. All the songs have been remastered and sound better then the original versions of them. In the CD book there is a 4 page biography of Amys career which is also pretty cool. I say if you are a diehard fan get it to have all of Amys albums, and if you are a new fan this is a GREAT place to start!!

I bought this CD for my brother's Birthday. It was a much loved addition to his new Amy Grant collection.

This is the type of album that leaves me singing the tunes after I finished listening to it.
