blind boys of alabama - amazing grace lyrics
amazing grace, how sweet the sound
that sav’d a wretch like me!
i once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now i see.
’twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears reliev’d;
how precious did that grace appear,
the hour i first believ’d!
thro’ many dangers, toils and snares,
i have already come;
’tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
the lord has promis’d good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be,
as long as life endures.
yes, when this flesh 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.
john newton, olney hymns (london: w. oliver, 1779)
