Amazing grace! how sweet the
sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind but now I see
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed!
Thro’ many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
Tis grace hath 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.
And when his 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 there ten thousand years,
Bright shinning as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing
God’s grace,
Than when we’ve first began
