One of my favorite hymns is Amazing Grace. I thought I would share mostly all free stuff today,
staying with the theme of the song. “Amazing Grace’ is a Christian hymn which is written by an English poet named John Newton in 1779.
"God's Amazing Grace" (feat. Rev. Timothy Flemming)
Lyrics to 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
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 ev'ryone
And there's a cross for me
