Grace cover

"Grace" is the debut single from Jeff Buckley's 1994 album of the same name. The song originated from an instrumental composition titled "Rise Up to Be" created by Buckley's collaborator Gary Lucas. Buckley added lyrics inspired by a personal experience of saying goodbye to his girlfriend at an airport during rainy weather, with the vocal melody developing spontaneously during the creative process.

The song explores how experiencing genuine love can diminish anxiety about one's own mortality.
