Natalie Grant's music is still under copyright protection. That means that (unless she goes out of her way to grant permission), there is no legal option for what you've requested. It is possible it is still out there, but if so it would be unauthorized and probably shut down quickly. You should purchase the music if you want it, or do your best to play it by ear.musicnotes.com - you can buy most songs' sheet music on this website! you can download the sheet music directly to your computer, or you can buy the booklet for the song and/or the whole album at times. It wouldn't be free, but it's not very much either, about 4-5 dollars when downloading and 3-4 when purchasing the booklet of the lone song.http://www.scribd.com/doc/19026196/Natalie-Grant-Held
