AMAZING GRACE

AMAZING GRACE

Bait 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.

 ’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 that 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.

 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.

 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.
