1. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
Bm A
That saved a wretch like me!
D D7 G D
I once was lost, but now am found,
Bm A D
Was blind but now I see.

2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
Bm A
And grace my fears relieved;
D D7 G D
How precious did that grace appear
Bm A D
The hour I first believed.

His Word my hope secures,

He will my shield and portion be
Bm A D
As long as life endures

4. Through many dangers, toils and snares,
Bm A
I have already come;
D D7 G D
It's grace that brought me safe thus far,
Bm A D
And grace will lead me home.

5. When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bm A
Bright shining as the sun,
D D7 G D
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Bm A D
Than when we first begun.
