Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
: P& d3 v% \4 N1 C9 g  G% rWas blind, but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.

His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,

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.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall profess, within the vail,
A life of joy and peace.
