Woke up this morning with you in our bed • Going over and over everything you said • Who taught you
how to speak the words that you say • I’ve always wanted to be talked to that way •• Love has made • Has made you unafraid ••
Watching my children finding their way • Through struggles and triumphs and heartbreak • I hope the
roads they take are making them strong • I’ll still be on my knees long after they’re gone
•• Love has made • Love has made • Love has made • Has made me unafraid ••
My lovely mother is getting on in years • And the way her body’s aging brings her girls to tears • The
way she trembles with each effort she makes • She just says heaven’s getting closer each day
•• ‘Cause love has made • Love has made • Love has made • Has made her unafraid •• Love could
make • Love can make • Love will make • Make you unafraid

Behind the Song:“Songwriting is a form of contemplation. To write
about someone or something, you have to meditate on
that person or that idea until the swirl of feelings
surrounding it can be expressed in words. The process is worthwhile,
whether or not you end up writing a song. I wept a bucket of gratitude
writing this one.” - Amy Grant
