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 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  yes when this heart and flesh shall fail and mortal life shall cease i shall possess within the veil a life of joy and peace  when weve been there a thousand years bright shining as the sun weve no less days to sing gods praise than when we first begun
