And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appearThe hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snaresI have already come;’Tis Grace that brought me safe thus farand Grace will lead me home. The Lord has promised good to me. His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be,As long as life endures. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,And mortal life shall cease,I shall possess within the veil,A life of joy and peace. When we’ve been here ten thousand yearsBright shining as the sun. We’ve no less days to sing God’s praiseThan when we’ve first begun. 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.
