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!
The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures.
Through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come; His grace has brought me safe thus far, His grace will lead me home.
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail And mortal life shall cease, Amazing grace shall then prevail In heaven's joy and peace.
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'd first begun.
I love this song and couldn't resist posting the lyrics to it. We sang it at church this past Sunday and I was shocked that I didn't cry! Not sure if I sang this at a funeral years ago or what, but I usually cry when I have to sing it or hear it....It is a beautiful song and the words are so powerful to me, I wanted to share with you.
