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 |
|
How precious did that grace appear |
|
The hour I first believed |
|
Through 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 |
|
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 there ten thousand years |
|
Bright shining as the sun |
|
We've no less days to sing God's praise |
|
Than when we've first begun |
