When I was growing up in suburban J-town, KY there were two albums in our house that I distinctly remember. Both of them were brown. One was the famous CARPENTERS ALBUM and the other was HANK WILLIAMS Greatest Hits. So I grew up loving pop/country ballads.
In the mid 80's after college at Western Kentucky University, I migrated south and lived in Nashville.
I worked at the West End Cooker Restaurant right next to Vanderbilt University and waited on a number of country music stars. I also worked for a short time at the Bell Meade Country Club.
One day I had the pleasure of waiting on Miss Amy Grant and her mother. They were having lunch with none other than Mrs. Sarah Cannon (AKA Minne Pearl...Howdy!)
I left Nashville in 1989. Vince Gill was starting to become a big hit in Nashville after working for years as a back-up singer and musician. Years later he and Amy Grant married and they produce and perform an annual Christmas show around the country.
Below are the lyrics to Vince Gill's wonderful song "When Love Finds You. This song fills me with joy and gives me hope. Vince has one of the most amazing tenor voices in the business and is now reaching iconic status in the world of Country Music. He has hosted the CMA's numerous times and has sold millions of records. Vince wrote this song along with Michael Omartian. When I listen to him sing, I hear a gift from God.
Be inspired and enjoy.

WHEN LOVE FINDS YOU
Love sure is something no one can explain
It can bring you such joy, it can bring you pain
And with every emotion, love puts us through
There's nothing you can say, when love finds you
Love is the power that makes your heart beat
It can make you move mountains, make you drop to your knees
When it finally hits you, you wont know what to do
There's nothin you can say, when love finds you
Chorus:
Give it all you can give it, when your love comes around
If you put your heart in it, then it wont let you down
You'll find out its true, baby, someday when love finds you
And when you least expect it, it will finally come true
Theres nothing you can say when love finds you
Repeat chorus
You'll find out its true, baby, someday when love finds you
