Lyrics

A (Eb)maz ing grace!

How (Ab)sweet the (Eb)sound that saved a wretch like (Bb)me!

I (Eb)once was lost, but (Ab)now I’m (Eb)found, was blind, but (Bb7)now I (Eb)see.

’Twas grace that taught (Eb7)my (Ab)heart to (Eb)fear, and grace my fears re (Bb)lieved.

How (Eb)pre cious (Eb)did that (Ab)grace ap (Eb)pear the hour I (Eb)first (Bb7)be (Eb)lieved.

Through (Eb)man y dan gers, (Ab)toils and (Eb)snares, we have al read y (Bb)come.

’Twas (Eb)grace that brought us (Ab)safe thus (Eb)far, and grace will (Bb7)lead us (Eb)home.

When we’ve been there (Eb7)ten (Ab)thou sand (Eb)years, bright shin ing as the (Bb)sun,

we’ve (Eb)no less (Eb)days to (Ab)sing God’s (Eb)praise than when we (Eb)first (Bb7)be (Eb)gun.

Through

A (Fm)see.
