Amazing Grace

Melodie: trad., Text: John Newton (1779)

D D7 G D D7 A A7
Amazing grace, how sweet the sounds,that saved a wretch like me.
D D7 G D Hm A F D
I once was lost, but now I’m found, was blind but now I see.
 
‘T was grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved. 
How precious did that grace appear, the hour I first believed. 
 
Thro’s many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come, 
‘Tis grace hath bro’t me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. 
 
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds, in a believers ear. 
It sooths his sorrows, heals the wounds, and drives away his fear. 
 
Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free? 
No, there’s a cross for ev’ry one and there’s a cross for me.
