Lyrics:
Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown-up Christmas List
Not for myself but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree
Well, heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal the heart
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
What is this illusion called?
The innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief
Can we ever find the truth
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown-up Christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my grown-up Christmas list

I agree 110% brother! It makes me tear up everytime in a good way. Awesome song
Just lost my precious wife to cancer...This was one of our most favorite Christmas songs...Won't be celebrating anymore but will always and forever listen to this incredible song...
I hope you find peace.. she is always there.. watching and loving you forever..
I am so sorry for your loss. When you play the song, remember all the special times you shared with your wife and she will be with you forever.
My Condolences !!
Im sorry for your loss, Sir. May the good Lord and your wife forever bless and watch over you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏
So sorry for your loss. My prayers this Christmas will include peace and comfort for you.
This has been my Christmas wish for many year's but 2020 is more so then ever. I don't want our world hurting anymore. Will you not intervene Lord we need you!
Amen to that!
🙏 Amen
Amen! missed you all!....
Amen
with you on that one
"No more lives torn apart, then wars would never start, and time would heal our hearts."
...*sniff*...
Um, Nani? Awww
i love her beautiful voice
I thought it was, “time will heal *all* hearts.” But yeah, same feels either way ;)
But then the creepy kids randomly appear
Everyone would have a friend mmmmmm yea
To me,,"Grown up Christmas List" is definitely the most beautiful and the most meaningful Christmas song ever made. Never gets tired listening to this. ❤🇵🇭
What's wrong in this generation? This should be the number 1 Christmas song not the song lusting for Eminem
Amy's version is just pure innocents that will never get old as we all grow older!
trez lorenz man she sings it the BEST love it😍🎶🎵🎶
Leo Dancor it sure dose Christmas is over but I still sing this song. 😊
*innocence
@@TheLAKERSareGodsTeam
1. I noticed that too.
2. The Lakers are NOT God's team, sorry.
lomer hope
I TOTALLY AGREE THAT THIS SONG IS ONE FOR THE AGES!!! SHE IS ONE AMAZING ARTIST THAT HAS EVER BEEN AROUND!!!
Still my favorite Christmas song ❤
I cry like a fool every time I hear this song!! This is what Christmas is all about
Me too.
GlamGirl7 me to
GlamGirl7, then you're not foolish. God just may be warming your heart.
Me, too...and I'm a 54yo male
@@Plathianloner Same here steve im 48 lol
I swear this Christmas song has the most powerful words I've ever heard.
Never knew I had an adult Christmas list til I listened closely to the beautiful words sang in this song. But HOW DOES AMY GRANT SING AND NOT CRY? I can not sing it without crying. Amy, God has blessed you with that voice (I’m sure you know).
I play this on my soprano saxophone for my hospital’s patients every Christmas. It brings tears to their eyes. It’s very challenging to play because Amy Grant’s version is in the key of B Major. I must transpose it to C-Sharp Major which has seven sharps in the key signature. It also takes a great deal of breath control as well. However, the joy of bringing my gift of music to my patients’ lives makes it all worth the effort!
Amen
Amy Grant is one of the finest performers in both Christian and mainstream music. Her performance away from music is to be equally applauded. Now and forever a fan!😍
Hello
I used to hate it when my mom played it. Now at 34. I cry everytime I hear it
Same here, friend. My mom loved this song when it came out, and edgy younger me thought it was the corniest thing ever.
I re-listened when it came on the radio yesterday, and I teared up. My mom died at 85 in 2017.
This is my favorite christmas song, not only because it's sung by the great Amy Grant, but because of what shes singing about and how powerful and true her words are to all adults, even if they don't want to believe them.
What a beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful singer! ❤️🙏
Chamberlain Grey SAE
Yea she is
@@fraternityfoundation9403what do u mean
This song perfectly captures the true spirit of Christmas, and Amy Grant's recording is- in my opinion- the definitive version.
Beautiful beautiful song ever
None better!!!!!💙
not many songs get me teared up but this one does, smiling all the way
I love her hair.
Its a powerful message that's why
I cry 9/10 listening to this
This Christmas is difficult I lost my older and only sibling,my brother was only 57 he died April 9th this year, from a blood clot. I want my loved ones back for one day.
Especially the part "Everyone would have a friend."
I've listened to this song every year at Christmas since it was first released. Listening to it now, I'm reminded how much our world today needs this message.
One of those timeless classic contemporaries that never ages or fades. Dripping with emotion, we need more music and lyrics like this in an age of chaos, pain and lost humanity.
I posted a comment 2 years ago, how no one sings this song, like Amy Grant, still stands today. And all the adorable children in this video, ..... I just wish life could be better for THEM and ALL the Good People of this World! This video was a long time ago,and sadly nothing has changed. How I wish it would!
pizza1953 absolutely love the children breaks my heart to see any child being hurt .sadly it happens every day
Her voice is so soft and beautiful. The yearning and power that grows in her voice as the song progresses. Amy Grant is a true artist and this song shows her range. The video is so lovely as well. She describes a childlike Christmas fantasy and the colors and lighting suggest an almost dreamlike state. But the lyrics of the song slowly direct the listener to a more meaningful and fulfilling desire for the world. It isn't confrontational or condemning. This is another way that Amy shows her incredible talents.
Saw Amy at our church around 1986, I was born 1970. Now my son is 30 years old and daughter is 32 yrs old. ❤Nick is a 5 yr Marine vet and Daughter is in medical. Proud of both of them. ❤
Beautiful. This should be played every day.
My Christmas wish to have my loved ones back for 1day. To hold them dearly and never let go.
---it never grows old... this song always makes me cry....
This is such a beautiful song. Every Christmas we hear so many of the same songs over...and over...and OVER again, while we're lucky if we hear this one once or twice. Not that there is anything wrong with those other songs, but this song definitely deserves more playtime than it's given during the holidays.
Why does this song make me cry every time I hear it ugh it's so beautiful
Same ! I think it’s the instruments. Sung with so much meaning and emotion.
Because you have a loving, giving heart and soul! It does the same for me!
This is a wish of every heart..in every man...around the world. ❤❤❤
I have always loved this song since I was a small child. I am all grown up now and I understand every lyric so much more then I ever could have as a child. Maybe it was some foreshadowing as to what I had to "look forward too" in the years that were t come. I have listened to this song every Christmas since and I just fall more in love with the meaning and the message of the song every time I hear it. Its more then a wish list, its a musical prayer.
My favorite Christmas song of all time. So much underrated but can never deny this heart-felt masterpiece by Amy Grant.
This song takes me to a better time.
Same. ❤
This Song Hits me in 2020
Definitely.
Man doesn't! Miss these days never knew life would be this way
Ain't that fo sho.
This is without a doubt one of the best Christmas songs ever. And Amy does it better then anyone. Period !!!
Not true, I saw Natalie sing it on a Garth Brooks special, and no one tops Natalie.
Different strokes for different folks
Amy Grant sang 2 of the most beautiful christmas songs of all time. Grown up Christmas list and The gift.
I've listened to many versions of this song, by many singers. No one can reach the sound range, that Amy Grant brings, as she recorded it, before the making of this video. Certain songs were made for certain people to sing. This is only my preference. I don't seek to discredit anyone. Smoochez, & toodlez! 😘
I am biased towards her version for sure.
She sings it perfectly.
Definitely... there is really something in her that makes the song more connecting to our lives and makes the song more meaningful.
Another fine one from David Foster and his wife. So emotive, so real and true.
I Like U ur exactly right certain songs were meant for certain people like this song by Amy Grant I just got through listening to Kelly Clarksons version it’s good but this one is the best the other thing is like for example O Holy Night u need the right voice for that song and also Mary Did You Know
The best Xmas song ever written. Sung with so much emotions. A voice so soothing and calming. Amy Grant's version is the best
Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up Christmas list
Not for myself but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, no
This is my grown up Christmas list
As children we believe
The grandest sight to see

But Heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, no

Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, no
This is my grown up Christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my grown up Christmas list
As a pianist, I love the electric piano sound used in Amy's version!! Love playing this on my keyboards!
No idea why I’m listening to this on April 11, 2020, but maybe this is My Grown Up Corona Wish🤞🏻 Let’s hope all the suffering ends soon!
I love this wish! Let's all wish and pray for this! God Bless you!♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🎄🎄
Amen
Merry Christmas
"But I'm all grown up now; and still need help some how."
( Seriously Best line ever!)
Alot of people need help these days. 🙏🙏🙏
The only thing more beautiful than the lyrics and music are the wonderful faces of this group of multi-ethnic children. Try not to smile when looking at them.
My favourite Christsmas song. The true meaning of Christsmas isn't about getting presents. To me, it's more about being with your loved ones and no more sufferings around the world. :)
I always feel nostalgic over the years that had passed. It was the best childhood years where things are quite simple and easy . , where small things can make us smile a little and laugh out even harder ..where things aren't complicated at all.. and when we always look forward to our wishes and dream to come true. If and only i could turn back time. I would always want to be a child forever...
"No More Lives torn apart..."
"That wars would never start..."
"That time would Heal all Hearts...'
"Everyone would have a Friend,,"
"Right would Always Win..."
"Love would NEVER end..."
This has been my Life Long wish since
I could remember,
and this is still now my grown up wish forever until it comes True...
Love, Peace, Joy, Happiness, Well-being to everyone

I always break down and cry for all the sadness and hurt in existence 😢Amy sings my favorite Christmas song with hope and prayers that my wish will come true too ! Most classic and iconic song 🤍🤍Forever Loved ✨️✨️
We need way more of this in children’s life keep them pure and let them grow up .With out crazy agendas.
My favorite Christmas song
Beautiful song and Amy Grant does it justice....just beautiful, Amy and God Bless You!
Female singers today just don’t compare to the ladies of the 80’s and 90’s! Not even close!
Aaron Taylor their auto tune is trash
I am from that generation , you are so right. But there is talent today, just in limited supply sadly. It is hard to believe those decades were almost nearly 30-40 years ago.
You got that right!

My most favorite Christmas song ever. This is what I genuinely want for Christmas this year.
I'm glad Amy and Michael continued the legacy of this song First done by Natalie Cole and David Foster, who incidentally wrote this incredible beautiful song,, I suppose it will never die now, Incidentally I'm Jamaican, just to say that we love other types of songs too, not only reggae as people in general tend to think, we know good music, no matter the genre.
+audley mclean Natalie King Cole was horrible in her recording of this song. She had a great career, but this was not a shining moment for her.This is an David Foster and Amy Grant song.
+TheLAKERSareGodsTeam Racist
+Godislove victory just personally not liking her version of the song isn't racist did the person comment on her skin color? no. Maybe you should rethink who the real racist is.
+Aaron Frost Yeah You
+Aaron Frost and beside I wasn't talking to you
This song brings me to tears.....every Christmas. I think it's beautiful and the lyrics are what Christmas "should be".
What an Amazing song 🎵 so meaningful 💕. Her voice is so soft so magical ✨️ ✨️ . Her voice is incredible express the meaning of Love ❤️.
Just love ❤️ this song !!
lovely song lovely singer and precious children! beautiful video. thanks.
yes there are many versions of this song but amy's is the best. could listen to her for hours!!! she is the best when it comes to Christmas music
This song really has a Warm and Gracious message in it! I see myself in this women's eyes.
Great song to Begin the day with. 🙂🌿🌻
The world needs this song now
Wow I wish I could say how much I love this song because it's so meaningful and heartwarming.
Amy Grant is so good at singing it touches my heart with the love of Jesus Christ she shares.
Beautiful, touches down to the soul.
the audio blend of her voice with the keyboard timbre is as close to perfect as you can get. Robbie Buchanan and the audio engineer get many props for this record. It's not easy to out do Natalie Cole being produced by Midas touch David Foster. I'll bet even Foster was impressed.
I love Amy Grant. Beautiful song, forever.
December 24, 2019 when I have found this song. Yet, Amy Grant' single "thats what love is for" is one of my favorites. Now i have two fav songs of hers.
My one a and only best song for Christmas (Jesus) I love you!
i wanted to thank you amy gant, i grew up listening to your music it changed my life, i asked my mom and i was a little lost, people praying for me i will always admire you, although i know you don´t know that i exist i thank god for listening to your music changed me
So much feeling. Love this song because it's so touching, with a beautiful message.
Just one of Amy’s amazing songs.🙏🏻❤️
This version was played on FM radio airwaves in the Philippines back in 1992.
It was on WRR 101.9 Radio Romance of ABS-CBN.
We all need to pray For this beautiful song. God Bless You, Amy. You know the true meaing.
This shows the heart and the joy that's supposed to be in Christmas, the traditions, the family, and the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ.
I love Amy's version of these lyrics I WROTE! Yes, David wrote the music and I wrote the lyrics to this classic song. I am usually quietly behind the scenes, but I am most proud of this inspiring song I wrote, so there ya go! :):):)
When I heard Linda Eder sing your song, I was simply amazed and SO impressed. Absolutely stunning lyrics! Cheers from Jimmy Short in Sacramento!
ruclips.net/video/jSGSXjhoZ3Y/видео.html
This has become a staple in many people's christmas like turkey is to thanksgiving. So you have every right to be proud of your creative output. Songwriting is such a gift.
BEAUTIFUL ❤ THANK YOU!!
If I wrote something this beautiful I’d be telling it from the rooftops! Great job! It is so beautiful, I love it & I’m picky about my Christmas songs. 👏👏👏👏❤️👍🏼
That is Awesome! At first I assumed Amy wrote the song. After I started hearing everyone and their brother singing it I looked it up. I didn't remember your name sorry, writer's really don't get the name recognition they deserve.
Yes, this is my grownup Christmas wish ..that everyone must be Friends... I love you all!!! Merry Christmas!!!!
This Christmas song always tugs at my heart no matter what time of year.
this is now my one of my favorite Christmas songs!
My idea was to write something different for a Christmas song....not just about snow, jingle bells, etc...although I LOVE all Christmas music....I wanted to write a lyric that was more meaningful and lasting, with adult aspirations. I love every version of my song....Natalie Cole, Barbra Streisand, Kelly Clarkson, Michael Buble, Monica, Jordan Smith, and all the others....xo
When I heard Linda Eder sing your song, I was simply amazed and SO impressed. Absolutely stunning lyrics! Cheers from Jimmy Short in Sacramento!
ruclips.net/video/jSGSXjhoZ3Y/видео.html
Thank you so much, Linda. You have given us a song with lyrics that touch us to the depths of our heart and soul. With all that is going on in the world today we need the hope and comfort
found in this beautiful song.
Thanks to David Foster as well for bringing your words to life with a stunning melody. 🤗🤗
Did Elvis somewhat inspire your writing this? Just asking.
How could you not love any song written by Linda Thompson! Beautiful inside and out! Regardless who sings your song, you inspired millions! Have a Merry Christmas! :)
The lyrics have always been just as special as the music itself. Just something so magical comes together with the words and melody. Thank you for writing these beautiful lyrics.
Hi Linda, you've written a masterpiece of a song, many different great singers have sung it, but no one sings it like Amy Grant does, by far she does it best, that's my opinion. My dad's old boss in the Army was the man who recruited Elvis & put him in the Army, we lived in Jackson, Miss. back in the 70s, I was a kid at the time, heard lots of stories about Elvis & I've always been a big fan. Anyway, beautiful song, love it & good talking to you. Merry Christmas🎄☃️🙏👍✌️
Does not compare to Natalie's version, check it out on Garth Brooks special
Imo the most beautiful Christmas song ever recorded.
I love this song. Starting to listen to Christmas music. Beautiful song in so many.
This is what makes Christmas a blessed, joyous event
It’s 2023 and this is a beautiful Christmas wishes ❤❤
Amazing song and sing. Thank you very much, Musicians and Amy Grant singer. 🌹💖🌹💖🌹💖🌹💖
So beautiful! She was a LOT of my Christmas music as a young mom in the late 80's, into the '90s. Will always have a place for her in my heart
Hi lisamarask hope you're okay?
Agree, just heard 5 versions... They were All really good...
Its 2024 and I'm still listening to this music. It brings me back to when everyone in my family was still alive for Christmas and thanksgiving. I wish I could just go back in time and hug my dad one more time.
Awesome song with great lyrics as always. God bless you 😇💖🙏❤️
Ths version top it all.....it hit me😢
Hard to believe all those kids in this video are all grown ups now. With their own grownup Christmas wishes.
latinhero1818 what year was this song and video done?
1992
Omg time flies 😭😭😭
It is hard to believe 30 years have nearly gone by.
With Amy and Vince living under the same roof, can you imagine what it must sound like? The music must be something else with two of the finest singers on the planet!
its not even christmas at my house until mrs amy grant is all over the radio !!!! i just looove her christmas stuff ....PERFECT FOR CHRISTMAS !!
I wish this "Grown Up Christmas List" will come true for everyone! Merry Christmas to all, is my lifelong wish..🎄🌟🎶💗🎄🌟💗🎶🎄🌟💗🎶😄
I heard this today and broke into tears. Thank you Amy Grant !!!
Would that this could become a reality!!! It starts in each and every Heart. Great Song. It is also my Grown Up Christmas List and Prayer.
It is true that the holiday season does bring out the children within us all. It's also good to make a Christmas wish for those in need.
Love this song with all my heart, Amy is an Angel!! Cannot listen to this without tearing up!!
It does not feel like Christmas until I hear this song. Many have recorded it, but nobody did it better than Amy.
Makes me cry …..every time!
If only all mankind would truly hear this song This world would be a better place.
Still the most beautiful Christmas song in 2019!!
The best I've ever heard
I agree
Perfect song for the end of the decade
Thanks Be to God, Jesus is my Lord ! All the way from Hawaii ! Molokai
I listen to this and it touches my heart. With so much joy just beautiful
Every time I hear this song, I go back to my childhood. It wasn't the greatest, but it had its moments that I hold in my heart and thank God for giving me a chance at this life on earth.
I like Amy grant,she sings great
