"Amazing Grace" lyrics
Citizens & Saints Lyrics
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
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home!
My chains are gone, I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood, his mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing grace!
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'd first begun!
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home!
My chains are gone, I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood, his mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing grace!
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'd first begun!
