1. Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)
D7
That saved a wretch like me!
G C G
I once was lost, but now am found,
D7 G
Was blind, but now I see.

2. 'T was grace that taught my heart to fear,
D7
And grace my fears relieved;
G C G
How precious did that grace appear
D7 G
The hour I first believed!
G C G
3. Thro' many dangers, toils, and snares,
D7
I have already come;

'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
D7 G
And grace will lead me home.

4. The Lord has promis'd good to me,
D7
His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be
D7 G
As long as life endures.

5. Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
D7
And mortal life shall cease;

I shall possess, within the veil,
D7 G
A life of joy and peace.

6. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
D7
The sun forbear to shine;
G C G
But God, who call'd me here below,
D7 G
Will be forever mine.
