Amazing Grace

(ａｍａｚｉｎｇ　ｇｒａｃｅ！　ｈｏｗ　ｓｗｅｅｔ　ｔｈｅ　ｓｏｕｎｄ)

Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound

(ｔｈａｔ　ｓａｖｅｄ　ａ　ｗｒｅｔｃｈ　ｌｉｋｅ　ｍｅ！)

That saved a wretch like me!

(ｉ　ｏｎｃｅ　ｗａｓ　ｌｏｓｔ，　ｂｕｔ　ｎｏｗ　ｉ’ｍ　ｆｏｕｎｄ；)

I once was lost, but now I'm found;

(ｗａｓ　ｂｌｉｎｄ，　ｂｕｔ　ｎｏｗ　ｉ　ｓｅｅ．)

Was blind, but now I see.

(’ｔｗａｓ　ｇｒａｃｅ)

'Twas grace

(ｔｈａｔ　ｔａｕｇｈｔ　ｍｙ　ｈｅａｒｔ　ｔｏ　ｆｅａｒ，)

that taught my heart to fear,

(ａｎｄ　ｇｒａｃｅ　ｍｙ　ｆｅａｒｓ　ｒｅｌｉｅｖｅｄ；)

and grace my fears relieved;

(ｈｏｗ　ｐｒｅｃｉｏｕｓ　ｄｉｄ　ｔｈａｔ　ｇｒａｃｅ　ａｐｐｅａｒ，)

how precious did that grace appear,

(ｔｈｅ　ｈｏｕｒ　ｉ　ｆｉｒｓｔ　ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅｄ．)

The hour I first believed.

(ｔｈｒｏｕｇｈ　ｍａｎｙ　ｄａｎｇｅｒｓ，)

Through many dangers,

(ｔｏｉｌｓ　ａｎｄ　ｓｎａｒｅｓ，)

toils and snares,

(ｉ　ｈａｖｅ　ａｌｒｅａｄｙ　ｃｏｍｅ；)

I have already come;

(’ｔｉｓ　ｇｒａｃｅ)

'Tis grace

(ｔｈａｔ　ｂｒｏｕｇｈｔ　ｍｅ　ｓａｆｅ　ｔｈｕｓ　ｆａｒ，)

that brought me safe thus far,

(ａｎｄ　ｇｒａｃｅ　ｗｉｌｌ　ｌｅａｄ　ｍｅ　ｈｏｍｅ．)

And grace will lead me home.

(ｔｈｅ　ｌｏｒｄ　ｈａｓ　ｐｒｏｍｉｓ’ｄ　ｇｏｏｄ　ｔｏ　ｍｅ，)

The Lord has promis'd good to me,

(ｈｉｓ　ｗｏｒｄ　ｍｙ　ｈｏｐｅ　ｓｅｃｕｒｅｓ；)

His word my hope secures;

(ｈｅ　ｗｉｌｌ　ｍｙ　ｓｈｉｅｌｄ　ａｎｄ　ｐｏｒｔｉｏｎ　ｂｅ，)

He will my shield and portion be,

(ａｓ　ｌｏｎｇ　ａｓ　ｌｉｆｅ　ｅｎｄｕｒｅｓ．)

As long as life endures.

(ｙｅａ，　ｗｈｅｎ　ｔｈｉｓ　ｆｌｅｓｈ)

Yea, when this flesh

(ａｎｄ　ｈｅａｒｔ　ｓｈａｌｌ　ｆａｌｌ，)

and heart shall fall,

(ａｎｄ　ｍｏｒｔａｌ　ｌｉｆｅ　ｓｈａｌｌ　ｃｅａｓｅ；)

And mortal life shall cease;

(ｉ　ｓｈａｌｌ　ｐｏｓｓｅｓｓ，　ｗｉｔｈｉｎ　ｔｈｅ　ｖｅｉｌ，)

I shall possess, within the veil,

(ａ　ｌｉｆｅ　ｏｆ　ｊｏｙ　ａｎｄ　ｐｅａｃｅ．)

A life of joy and peace.

(ｔｈｅ　ｗｏｒｌｄ　ｓｈａｌｌ　ｓｏｏｎ　ｔｏ　ｒｕｉｎ　ｇｏ，)

The world shall soon to ruin go,

(ｔｈｅ　ｓｕｎ　ｒｅｆｕｓｅ　ｔｏ　ｓｈｉｎｅ；)

The sun refuse to shine;

(ｂｕｔ　ｇｏｄ，　ｗｈｏ　ｃａｌｌｅｄ　ｍｅ　ｈｅｒｅ　ｂｅｌｏｗ，)

But God, who called me here below,

(ｓｈａｌｌ　ｂｅ　ｆｏｒｅｖｅｒ　ｍｉｎｅ．)

Shall be forever mine.

(ｗｈｅｎ　ｗｅ’ｖｅ　ｂｅｅｎ　ｔｈｅｒｅ)

When we've been there

(ｔｅｎ　ｔｈｏｕｓａｎｄ　ｙｅａｒｓ，)

ten thousand years,

(ｂｒｉｇｈｔ　ｓｈｉｎｉｎｇ　ａｓ　ｔｈｅ　ｓｕｎ．)

Bright shining as the sun.

(ｗｅ’ｖｅ　ｎｏ　ｌｅｓｓ　ｄａｙｓ)

We've no less days

(ｔｏ　ｓｉｎｇ　ｇｏｄ’ｓ　ｐｒａｉｓｅ)

to sing God's praise

(ｔｈｅｎ　ｗｈｅｎ　ｗｅ　ｆｉｒｓｔ　ｂｅｇｕｎ．)

Then when we first begun.
