Greatest Hits 1986–2004 is a compilation album by pop singer Amy Grant, released in 2004. It was Grant's first such album since The Collection in 1986, and thus her first since achieving mainstream success in the early 1990s.[2] The album includes two previously unreleased songs, "The Water" and "Come Be with Me".

The album was released to the Christian retail market by Word Records, and to other music retailers by A&M Records; A&M's first pressing added a bonus disc of four remixes.[2][4] It was Grant's final album to be released by A&M; mainstream distribution for Rock of Ages... Hymns and Faith was instead handled by Word's partial owner, Warner Music Group, via Warner Bros. Records; subsequently, Grant left Word and signed to Sparrow Records.
