Amazing Grace and the great hymns (How Great Thou Art, It Is Well, Be Thou My Vision)

1. 1

   Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound!)

2. 2

   That saved a wretch like me!

3. 3

   I once was lost, but now am found,—

4. 4

   Was blind, but now I see.

5. 5

   'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

6. 6

   And grace my fears relieved;

7. 7

   How precious did that grace appear

8. 8

   The hour I first believed!

9. 9

   Through many dangers, toils, and snares.

10. 10

    I have already come;

11. 11

    'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,

12. 12

    And grace will lead me home.

13. 13

    The Lord has promised good to me,—

14. 14

    His word my hope secures;

15. 15

    He will my shield and portion be

16. 16

    As long as life endures.

17. 17

    Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

18. 18

    And mortal life shall cease,

19. 19

    I shall possess, within the veil,

20. 20

    A life of joy and peace.

21. 21

    The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

22. 22

    The sun forbear to shine;

23. 23

    But God, who call'd me here below,

24. 24

    Will be for ever mine.
