1. 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. 2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved, How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed. 3. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come. 'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. 4. The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. 5. Yea, when this heart and flesh shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess within the vail, A life of joy and peace. 6. The world shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun refuse 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. As we now lay our garments down Upon our beds to rest, So Death ere long disrobes us all Of what we now possess. How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds And drives away his fear. Must Jesus bear the cross alone And all the world go free No, there's a cross for everyone And there's a cross for me. Shall I be carried to the skies On flow'ry beds of ease, While others fight to win the prize And sail through bloody seas? Amazing grace has set me free, To touch, to taste, to feel; The wonders of accepting love, Have made me whole and real.
O Miorbhail gràis! nach brèagh an ceòl;
'S e gràs thug eòlas dhomh air in' theum;
Tro iomadh cunnart's trioblaid chruaidh
