Amazing Graze

skrevet af en engelsk præst John Newton i 1779 - John Newton var oprindelig sømand, en tid med speciale i slavehandel, men bad til Gud under en storm og lovede at blive præst hvis han blev reddet - det blev han og præst blev han. 

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now I'm found,
Was 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.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.

When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.
