Comfort and peace for my heart, mind, and spirit as I grieve the death of my husband Ken. This was the hymn he wanted for his funeral. We have amazing grace from God.
I sang this to my newborn in hopes of settling him down & it worked. He has been fussing all night so I called my mom & she told me this song always calmed me down so I tried it with him & he's calmed down and finally asleep!!
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.
