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 t was 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 that 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 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 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 ve first begun 10
