Author: John Newton Hymnal: The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship #268 (1938) Scripture: Ephesians 2:5 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 Thro' many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace that 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 vail,
A life of joy and peace.
