"Lucky One" is a single by American Christian music singer Amy Grant. It was released in August 1994 by A&M Records as the first single from her 11th studio album, House of Love (1994). The song reached number two on the US Billboard Adult Contemporary chart and number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Grant her last top-20 hit in the United States. It also peaked at number four in Canada and reached the top 75 in Germany and the United Kingdom.

Larry Flick from Billboard magazine wrote, "Grant previews her sweet new House of Love collection with a chugging pop ditty that will remind some of the massive 'Baby Baby'. However, this tune actually has its own unique and interesting melody and far more thoughtful lyrics. Grant's voice has rarely sounded this assured, which makes room for more creative phrasing and broader note reach. A thoroughly satisfying and heartwarming single from a most engaging artist."[1] Pan-European magazine Music & Media described the song as "soft pop" in their review of the House of Love album.[2]
