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.

Just bumped into this son and decided to play the humming piano version. It was heart melting. I didn't know when I started crying; "A cry of joy & Happiness: Telling me GOD exists and all will always be well.

My 8yr old grandson just asked me a few minutes ago to use my phone to look up the words to a song so he could write them down. When I asked him which song I assumed he would say a popular song from one of today’s writers or artist. How it melted my heart when he said he wanted to look up “Amazing Grace”! Even while I write this I can hear him singing it with one of his old brothers. “Oh, How Sweet The Sound! ”

Praise be to God, I have forever since I've been born; have had undying faith in You! Though I have been through very hard times in my life.. And I am still struggling now; You have never left my side! As You have said, it wasn't a miracle, it's your faith that saved you! Forgive me when I stray, forgive me when I sin, forgive me when I don't stay on your path! Thank you for all You have and continue to do for me and my family. Amen🙏
