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.
