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. 

	Through many dangers, toils, and snares, 
	I have already come; 
	'tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, 
	and grace will lead me home. 

	The Lord has promised good to me, 
	his word my hope secures; 
	he will my shield and portion be, 
	as long as life endures. 

	Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, 
	and mortal life shall cease, 
	I shall possess, within the veil, 
	a life of 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 first begun.
