Amazing Grace English 0 [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. [2] 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed! [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. [4] The Lord has promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. [5] Yes, when this heart and flesh shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess within the veil A life of joy and peace. [6] When we've been there a thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we first begun. John Newton (1725-1807) -1 Public Domain SF19, MP31, TS18
