Amy Grant is recovering after being hospitalized for injuries she sustained in a bike accident in Nashville.  The 61-year-old Grant was injured while biking at Percy Warner Park in Nashville, Tenn.   A spokesperson for the singer said she was wearing a helmet, and that Grant fell while cycling with a friend.

Grant is being treated for cuts and abrasions as a result of the accident; as of press time, she was reported to be in stable condition and is expected to stay Thursday night for observation and extended care.

The incident comes more than two years after Grant had open-heart surgery to correct pulmonary venous return (PAPVR), a rare heart condition she’s had since birth.  Also earlier this month, Grant was revealed as one of five recipients of this year’s Kennedy Center Honors.
