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!

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.

Ce chant me rappel mon grand-pére, Pasteur qui l'aimait chanter dans des moments difficiles. Nous l'avons en version Kissi. Les mots sont restés intacts et originaux. Il est pour moi, un grand hymne de coeur. Decidement, l'auteur n'etait pas seul au moment qu'il le composait. Il était avec l'Esprit Saint.

Man this song is by far the most meaningful in all of my years. From funerals to wars, this song has gotten me and my british ancestors through it all. Thanks to God and to the genius that wrote this.

Beautiful song thank God it didn’t have the bag pipe version or I would be crying. At my grandma’s funeral they played it on the bagpipes and I started crying like full on sobbing so it just brings bad memories for me.

4th April is my birthday, and the song is most apt to my life, and for the new beginning of a new year added to my new age. For by grace and mercy God has done me well by being with me in all despite all my shortcomings. And by the same loving kindness, grace and mercy by which He has promised good things to me, my hope is secured in His word that never fails, that my best is here to manifest to the glory of God Almighty in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen 💖 and Amen 💖

Honestly, I am not religious, never have been and most likely won't be, but this song has such an amazing history. I've always been in love with this song, for it's poetic symbolism and it's rich backstory. This song does not affirm a belief in Jesus or God for me, instead it affirms my faith in people, in the human race. This man, who had done horrible things to others, who had led a life of hatred, not only realizes his wrong doings, but confesses them to the world, to others who were doing the same thing. I saw all of the comments about the love for Jesus and the love for God, but they did not write this message. A man broken, picked himself back up and put the pieces together, putting them on display for the world to see him shattered and glued. It's one of my only motivations to continue sometimes.

It's truly amazing all that Jesus did for us. Grateful that the story did not end with death, our hope is not in vain for He rose just as He said and has ascended to make intercession and preparation for us. He is coming back Halleluyah!!!

Praise the Lord. Greetings in Jesus name. This song has been composed by the great servant of God by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Whenever I sing I feel a joy within my heart. Not only that one but also God has given me the gift of singing.. May God bless the people of around the world through this blessed song. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah, Thank You Jesus.
