Amazing Grace

Anne Murray

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.



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've first begun.
