Lyics

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 has 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.
