Amazing Grace by The Blind Boys Of Alabama Lyrics
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That sav'd 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 reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believ'd!
Thro' 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 promis'd good to me
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil
A life of joy and peace
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below
Will be forever mine
That sav'd 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 reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believ'd!
Thro' 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 promis'd good to me
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil
A life of joy and peace
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below
Will be forever mine
