  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.

The Lord has promised
good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield
and portion be
As long as life endures.

Through many dangers,
toils, and snares
I have already come;
'Twas 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.
