歌詞

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 anares. I have already come; 'Tis grace has 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. Yes,when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease; I shall possess, within the vail, A life of joy and peace. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow The sun forebear to shine; But,God who called me here below, Will be forever mine.
