17Amazing Grace

Christ's Love and Sympathy

John Newton, 1779D. S. Clayton; J. P. Carrell

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.

2

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,And grace my fears relieved; How precious didthat grace appear The hour I first believed!

3

Through many dangers, toils and snares,I have already come; 'Tis grace hath broughtme safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.

4

When we've been there ten thousand years,Bright shining as the sun, We've no less daysto sing God's praise Than when we'd first begun.
