Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That sav?d 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 reliev?d;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ?d!
Thro? many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
?Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promis?d good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yes, 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 call?d me here below,
Will be forever mine.
