AMAZING GRACE CM arr. C Upton

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.

2 ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

and grace my fears relieved;

how precious did that grace appear

the hour I first believed!

3 Through many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come:

‘tis grace has brought me safe thus far,

and grace will lead me home.

4 The Lord has promised good to me,

his word my hope secures;

he will my shield and portion be

as long as life endures.

5 Yes, when this heart and flesh shall fail,

and mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess, within the veil,

a life of joy and peace.

6. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

the sun forbear to shine;

but God, who called me here below,

will be forever mine. John Newton (1725-1807)
