1  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.

2 ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
    And grace my fears relieved;
    How precious did that grace appear
    The hour I first believed!

3 The Lord hath promised good to me,
    His word my hope secures;
    He will my shield and portion be
    As long as life endures.

4 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.
