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.

I'm at peace listening to this music after going through hell. Thank You Jesus!!!
I don't much care for my fellowman due to all that is wrong among us and the path of enslavement by our gov. & their corruption. My fellowman put these politicians in office. Amazing Grace always brings me to my knees in tears. The power of the bagpipes and singing it has on me is staggering as I'm a get in fights kind of man.
I really appreciate this site. Thank you for your ministry!
I love the song so much. I also know it by heart. :-)
