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
T'was 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
T'was grace that 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
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 here ten thousand years
bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
then when we've first begun
