amazing grace

how sweet the sound

that saved a wretch like me

i once was lost

but now i'm found

was blind but now i see



'twas grace that taught

my heart to fear

and grace that fear relieved

how precious did

that grace appear

the hour i first believed



through many dangers

toils and snares

i have already come

'twas grace that brought me

safely thus far

and grace will lead me home



and when this heart

and flesh shall fail

and mortal life shall cease

i shall possess

within the vail

a life of joy and peace
