My favorite verse seems to be missing: Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come; ‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.

I sing this song to my 4 year old twin sisters. I’ve been singing them this song since they were 3 days old. Singing it to them tonight was bitter sweet because I’m headed off to boot camp for the United States Marine Corps in 3 weeks and I’m not gonna get many more moments like this with them.
Dothan, Alabama, United States
I’ve been singing this song to my granddaughter since the day I met her. It’s the one song that relaxes her and helps her go to sleep. Teaching her God’s love for her is my most important role as her “nanny.”
Rescue, CA, United States
This hymn is etched in my memory of church and Sunday School. It means everything to me at this moment. I have been very sad and fearful due to a struggle in our family. It is specifically between our 2 30 something sons. I have felt some responsibility as one son Harbors deep negative memories from their time growing up. I have only been partially informed. The uncertainty has torn me apart. This hymn is a gift from my Father in heaven to me. I feel some hope now and tremendous gratitude for the gift of God's Holy Son.
Macomb, IL, United States
It must be practiced and sung repeatedly to gain a true understanding of any kind of this song. We must remember that it is written, "We go from faith to faith."
