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. |

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed! |

The Lord hath promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. |

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

We are familiar with the hymn "Amazing Grace." Although this is a good hymn, it does not speak of the Triune God as our portion for our enjoyment. When this hymn was written, the experiential knowledge of God among the Lord's people had not come to this point. Even as recent as fifty years ago, Christians did not have the understanding of grace as the Triune God experienced and enjoyed by us. But standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before us, we have come to know that grace is far more than merely unmerited favor. Grace is the Triune God—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit—processed for our experience and enjoyment.

I love this song and it gives me an assurance that I will see God. I am pregnant but I must name my child Grace. It calms me down. He will my shield and portion be. Glory to God.

HIS grace is sufficient. He is our only hope and shield. He has promised good to us Jeremiah 29:11. Truly Beautiful.

Praise be to GOD! John 3:16 gave us hope, We can go to the Father, His grace is beyond human understanding — He deserves all the glory. Amen.

Indeed am a wretch, saved by grace. It's a hymn that tunes my soul towards the heavenly journey. Am glad I can sing this to glorify my Maker.
