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.
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!
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.
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.
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.

I love this hymn; so much it tells how this amazing grace has helped me through so much sorrow and pain. Also stubborness and willfulness. This wonderfull grace of God that is new every morning: I marvel at God's patience with me: and have heart so grateful for this love: please pray for me that I can also show this love; patience and grace and forgiveness to others: God bless to everyone : festive greetings to all.

We sing this song in our AA convention every year, it speaks to everyone differently of course, but as someone truly lost and now a believer in something greater than myself it is timeless and so heart felt it moves me to tears. GB

To The Family of Poet John Newton, he must be in double heaven to write such a heartfelt song from the entire vessel of the human body. GOD must have given him the right hand of fellowship when he entered the golden gates of the heavenly pearls.Mr. Newton must have had two hearts after GOD gave him a new one.

Such a peace when hearing this song. A loved one of ours entered into Heavens gates with this song in her heart.

Wretch. In the presence of the eternal ever-loving one I can be nothing but a wretch. In the presence of the eternal ever loving one is wholeness, light, life and hope. Thank You LORD.

Amazing Grace, how sweet? Really sweet beyond what human words could describe. This was the song that came to my heart as I woke up this morning, reminding me of the wonderful love of God to me. It's a love that is deep, high, wide and words cannot describe.
