Amazing Grace

John Newton/Virginia Harmony

Verse 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.

Verse 2:
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved,
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

Verse 3:
Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

Verse 4:
The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

Verse 5:
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.
