Amazing Grace
John Newton, 1770Amazing Grace (How sweet the sound)
That sav’d a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev’d;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ’d!Thro’ many dangers, toils and snare,
I have already come;
‘Tis grace has 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.Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall profess, within the vail,
A life of joy and peace.The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call’d me here below,
Will be for ever mine.
