| 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 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 heart shall fail, |
| And mortal life shall cease, |
| I shall possess, within the veil, |
| A life of joy and peace. |
| The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, |
| The sun forbear to shine; |
| But God, who called me here below, |
| Will be forever mine. |
| 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. |
