LYRICS

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now I´m found,
Was blind, but now I see.
'Twas 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,
We have already come;
Twice grace had brought us safe, us far,
And grace will lead us home.

When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We'll no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun.

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now I´m found,
Was blind, but now I see
