Amazing Grace

Trad. / Pattern: 1 _ 2 & 3

That was grace that taught my heart to fear,

and grace my fears relieved.

How precious did that grace appear, the hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils and snares,

I have already come.

That was grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,

his word my hope secures.

He will my shield and porion be, as long as life endures.

Yes, when this lesh and heart shall fail,

and mortal life shall cease.

I shall possess, within the veil, a life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

the sun forbear to shine.

But God, who call'd me here below, will be forever mine.
