Amazing Grace Lyrics

8 x9 d- O( U/ L3 t! E3 sAmazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
; K" v; U- o3 v: TWas blind, but now I see.
2 C: O- ^6 ~- z: L" M" qT'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
; O* S3 U% H  NHow precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
2 N  U: _1 y1 S2 E, @, f* x+ o3 Q" Sand Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.

He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
