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.
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!
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3
The Lord hath promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
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.
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.

This was my grandfather's favorite hymn and still my mother's favourite. Each time she sings it, I know she is calling on God's grace. It is my favourite hymn too. I use it to pray to God.

4. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall obsess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
6. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

I sang this to my newborn in hopes of settling him down & it worked. He has been fussing all night so I called my mom & she told me this song always calmed me down so I tried it with him & he's calmed down and finally asleep!!
