1
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.
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
2
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His words my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
(Interlude)
3
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
‘Tis grace that brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun.
4
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.
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.
Coda:
Amen!
Amen!
