Amazing Grace : John Newton

John Newton

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 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

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we’d first begun


Praise God, praise God...
