[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 hath 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] 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. [Verse 6] 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 first begun.
