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 heartto fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils, andsnares,

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 heartshall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess…
