Lyrics

A maz

ing grace, how sweet the sound

that saved

a wretch like me.

I once

was lost but now

I’m found,

was blind

but now I see.

’Twas grace

that taught my heart to fear,

and grace

my fears re lieved.

How pre

cious did that grace ap pear

the hour

I first be lieved.

My chains are gone,

I’ve been set free.

My God, my Sav ior

has ran somed me.

And like a flood,

His mer cy rains

un end ing love,

a maz ing grace.

The Lord

has prom ised good to me,

His Word

my hope se cures.

He will

my shield and por tion be

as long

as life en dures.

My chains are gone,

I’ve been set free.

My God, my Sav ior

has ran somed me.

And like a flood,

His mer cy rains

un end ing love,

a maz ing grace.

The grace.

My chains are gone,

I’ve been set free.

My God, my Sav ior

has ran somed me.

And like a flood,

His mer cy rains

un end ing love,

a maz ing grace.

The earth

shall soon

dis solve like snow,

the sun

for bear to shine.

But God,

who called me here be low,

will be

for ev er mine,

will be

for ev er mine.

You are

for ev er mine.
