Amazing Grace
John Newton
Amazing Grace, how sweet the
sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind, but now I see
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear
And Grace, my fears relieved
How precious did that Grace appear
The
hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I
have already come
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
And Grace
will lead me home
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my
hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace
When we've
been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less
days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun
