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.
Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory,
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah.
’Twas grace that taught
my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory,
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah.
Through many dangers,
toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace has brought me
safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory,
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory,
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah.
The earth shall soon
dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory,
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah.
