Amazing Grace Lyrics
3 z  T6 P& B* }
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.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
2 Y2 M/ ]: @5 N. WHow precious did that Grace appear
. o& A/ F! r" l$ E  l/ A; SThe hour I first believed.
/ ^( k" c2 d9 [* B1 o5 j( l1 TThrough many dangers, toils and snares
0 E+ c/ z+ R3 s4 y3 l# l# Y( h) aI have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
