Helmut Lotti - Amazing grace lyrics

Your rating:

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

When we've been here ten thousend years
bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
then when we first begun

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
't Is grace that brought me safe thus far
and grace will lead me home

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
I once was lost but now I'm found
was blind but now I see

Misschien wel leuk om de originele tekst te hebben!

Amazing grace!

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.

The Lord has promised good to me,

His Word my hope secures;

He will my Shield and Portion be,

As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess, within the veil,

A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shine;

But God, Who called me here below,

Shall be forever mine.

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.

John Newton (1725-1807).
