My 8yr old grandson just asked me a few minutes ago to use my phone to look up the words to a song so he could write them down. When I asked him which song I assumed he would say a popular song from one of today’s writers or artist. How it melted my heart when he said he wanted to look up “Amazing Grace”! Even while I write this I can hear him singing it with one of his old brothers. “Oh, How Sweet The Sound! ”
