amazing grace (my chains are gone)

amazing grace

how sweet the sound

that saved a wretch like me

i once was lost

but now i'm 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

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

the lord has promised good to me

his word my hope secures

he will my shield and portion be

as long as life endures

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

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

the earth shall soon dissolve like snow

the sun forbear to shine

but god

who called me here below

will be forever mine

will be forever mine

will be forever mine
