| - "Grace" is the title track from Jeff Buckley's debut album Grace (1994). It was the album's first single, and was also released as a video. The song was based on an instrumental song called "Rise Up to Be" written by Buckley's collaborator, Gary Lucas. Jeff wrote lyrics inspired by his saying goodbye to his girlfriend at the airport on a rainy day, and the vocal melody came naturally. In Buckley's words, "It's about not feeling so bad about your own mortality when you have true love." In a MuchMusic interview in 1994, Buckley said, "the song itself is about...it's an elegy; to no one, about...I always describe it as not fearing anything, anyone, any man, any woman, any war, any gun, any sling or arrow aimed at your heart by other people because there is somebody, finally, who loves you for real, and that you can achieve a real state of grace through somebody else's love in you." He added, "everybody knows what it's like to create an artistic moment; so-called artistic moment, because it's really just heightened humanism; just a heightened human language. If you've spent a night making love, you know exactly what it means to strip your ego, down, where you are there, expressing yourself, wordlessly, collaborating on a moment that has an energy about it that is replenishing or even completely inspirational in a way that you could never imagine. That's the way art really is." Later in the interview, Buckley concluded by saying, "grace is what matters, in anything, especially life, especially growth, tragedy, pain, love, death; about people, that's what matters. That's a quality I admire very greatly. It keeps you from reaching for the gun too quickly. It keeps you from destroying things too foolishly. It sort of keeps you alive; and it keeps you open for more understanding." Buckley invited Lucas to play on the album, along with "Mojo Pin"; two songs that Lucas had created the main riffs for, and Buckley had expanded upon, making up the "Grace" heard on the album, and earlier on Songs to No One 1991–1992; these songs were prominent in gigs around 1991 onwards. In 2021, it was listed at No. 394 on Rolling Stone's "Top 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". (en)

Jeff Buckley interpretaba en vivo esta canción mucho antes de ser grabada y forma parte de un álbum anterior llamado , resultado de su colaboración con , que fue editado en forma póstuma. Buckley invitó a Lucas a tocar esta canción para el álbum, junto con «», dos temas para los que Lucas creó los riffs principales y que Buckley expandió hasta llevarlas a la forma que presentan en el disco. Ambos temas fueron prominentes en los shows realizados a partir de 1991. Escrita cuando Buckley se mudó de Los Ángeles a Nueva York para vivir con quien amaba, la canción trata sobre no temer a lo que sucederá con la propia vida y dar el salto, expresado en sus propias palabras en : «Trata sobre no sentirse tan mal por la propia moralidad cuando se encuentra el verdadero amor».
