Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,441 hymnals Topics: New Birth Lyrics: 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 Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come: 'tis grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. 4 The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures; he will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. 5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail, and mortal life shall cease: I shall possess, within the veil, a life of joy and peace. 6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, the sun forbear to shine; but God, who called me here below, will be forever mine.

Chorus: When love shines in When love shines in, How the heart is tuned to singing, When love shines in! When love shines in When loves shines in, Joy and peace to others bringing, When love shines in. 2 How the world will glow with beauty, When love shines in! And the heart rejoice in duty, When love shines in; Trials may be sanctified, And the soul in peace abide; Life will all be glorified, When love shine sin. [Chorus] 3 Darkest sorrows will grow brighter When love shines in, And the heaviest burden, lighter, When love shines in. 'Tis the glory that will throw Light to show us where to go; O the heart shall blessing know When love shines in! [Chorus] 4 We may have unfading splendor, When love shines in, And a friendship true and tender, When love shines in; When earth vic'tries shall be won, And our life in heav'n begun, There will be no need of sun, For love shines in. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Jesus comes with pow'r to gladden]

Thou alone my Saviour art, Teach Thy wisdom to my heart; Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow. 4 Broken, humbled to the dust By Thy wrath and judgment just, Let my contrite heart rejoice And in gladness hear Thy voice; From my sins O hide Thy face, Blot them out in boundless grace.
