Amy Grant's song 'How Do You Know' featuring Kim Hill is a gentle, conversational piece that explores how believers can be certain of God's truthfulness. The lyrics reference biblical stories like Daniel in the lion's den and Lazarus being raised from the dead to illustrate God's faithfulness in difficult times. The song encourages listeners to trust that God is present and reliable, especially when life feels uncertain. It has a reassuring, almost teaching-like tone, reminding people that they can know God is true through His past acts and ongoing care.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

How do you know God is true?
I could tell a tale or two
How 'bout you?
Tell me yeah (tell me, tell me, do)

'Cause when your life's on the line
You gotta know He's there for you
Every time, I'll be reminding you

Daniel in the lion's den
All the lonely nights
But God took the lion's mouths
Shut them up tight

How do you know God is true?
I could tell a tale or two
How 'bout you?
Tell me yeah (tell me, tell me, do)

'Cause when your life's on the line
You gotta know He's there for you
Every time, I'll be reminding you

Lazarus was dead and cold
Three days in the ground
Jesus called him back to life
Daylight he found

How do you know God is true?
I could tell a tale or two
How 'bout you?
Tell me yeah (tell me, tell me, do)

'Cause when your life's on the line
You gotta know He's there for you
Every time, I'll be reminding you
Every time, I'll be reminding you
