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! |

The Lord hath promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. |

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 first begun. |

We are familiar with the hymn "Amazing Grace." Although this is a good hymn, it does not speak of the Triune God as our portion for our enjoyment. When this hymn was written, the experiential knowledge of God among the Lord's people had not come to this point. Even as recent as fifty years ago, Christians did not have the understanding of grace as the Triune God experienced and enjoyed by us. But standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before us, we have come to know that grace is far more than merely unmerited favor. Grace is the Triune God—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit—processed for our experience and enjoyment.

In the program I’m in we speak of a Higher Power who we can turn to control our lives. For me it is God. I know Him as Jesus. I also know Him as Grace. Amazing Grace tells my story.

But for the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, where would I be by now? The amazing grace of God is just unbelievable even when we did not deserve His Love He still came down to show us how deep His love for us stands. Thank You Jesus for dying on the cross to save a sinner like me. I love You more Jesus.
