5.0 out of 5 stars This is Amy's legacy, November 28, 2007

Undoubtedly, Age to Age, Unguarded, and Heart in Motion will probably be lauded when she's gone but "Lead Me On" is Amy Grant's magnum opus and her legacy to the church and the world.

This is arguably one of the three best Christian albums ever cut (it was ranked as such by CCM magazine a few years back) and easily one of the best ever made across all genres. Confession, introspection, joy, fear, brokenness, poetry, anger - the gamut of human expression is here. The honesty and commitment are breathtaking. And there are some lyrical sledgehammers on this thing that still knock me to the floor some nineteen years later.

I cannot recommend it strongly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amy Grant at her best and most honest, April 11, 2008

This is probably one of my favorite albums of all time. It's honest and true and all the songs seem to dovetail from one to the other. The simplicity of some of the arrangements and the emotion in the vocals is just amazing. "Faithless Heart" is one of the most heartfelt songs I've ever heard; it just breaks your heart. It's amazing that Lead Me On came after the enourmously successful, but more pop-oriented Unguarded. It's depth and complexity is lighyears away from that album. Of all the albums that Amy Grant has recorded, this may be the one that will live on long after she's left this world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning, January 23, 2008

J. Sharp, you have said it perfectly! I discovered this album in 1995 at 13 years of age; it opened my heart and my mind and has remained my favourite album ever since. I have an incredible music collection but I have never heard another album like this one. There is a current that runs through these songs, making them sound as if they truly belong together to create one breathtaking piece of work. I will never tire of these songs. I have heard them thousands of times and this album holds a space in my life and in my heart that no other album could ever hold.

I am not a Christian. I am, however, a believer that whatever hardships we may face in life, love will ultimately prevail. That is the message in this album, one that people of all religions (or no religion at all) can relate to. It is for this reason that I, myself, consider it not a "Christian" album, but a "faith" album. It belongs in every music lover's collection. To anybody who gives this album a chance, I promise you, you will be telling your friends about it.
