Amazing Grace

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.
