Amazing Grace Lyrics

9 H% R8 a6 e) T' a0 k* jAmazing 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.
& w; r' t( [. D1 oAnd Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
- c# f+ [9 V5 N'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
8 h' P; I) k" Y" _/ CThe Lord has promised good to me.
: p( m0 Y: K: o8 J% {# GHis word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
