Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, br That saved a wretch like me; br I once was lost but now I am found, br Was blind, but now, I see. br br 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, br And grace, my fears relieved. br How precious did that grace appear br The hour I first believed. br br Through many dangers, toils and snares br I have already come. br Twas grace that brought me safe thus far, br And grace will lead us home. br br The Lord has promised good to me; br His word my hope secures. br He will my shield and portion be; br As long as life endures. br br Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, br And mortal life shall cease, br I shall possess, within the veil, br A life of joy and peace. br br The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, br The sun forbear to shine; br But God, Who called me here below, br Will be forever mine. br br (et, pas écrit par Newton...) br br When we've been there ten thousand years br Bright shining as the sun, br We've no less days to sing God's praise br Then when we'd first begun.
