1  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.
 
 
 2  'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
       And grace my fears relieved;
    How precious did that grace appear
       The hour I first believed!
 
 
 3  The Lord hath promised good to me,
       His word my hope secures;
    He will my shield and portion be
       As long as life endures.
 
 
 4  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.
