Amazing grace How sweet the sound
C majorC G+G G7G7
That saved a wretch like me!

Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
C majorC G+G G7G7
And grace my fears relieved;
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
How precious did that grace appear
C majorC G+G C majorC FF C majorC
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
C majorC G+G G7G7
I have already come;
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
C majorC G+G C majorC FF C majorC
And grace will lead me home.
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
The Lord has promised good to me,

His Word my hope secures;
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
He will my Shield and Portion be,
C majorC G+G C majorC FF C majorC
As long as life endures.
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
C majorC G+G G7G7
And mortal life shall cease,
C majorC C7C7 FF C majorC
I shall possess, within the veil,

D MajorD D7D7 G+G D MajorD
But God, who called me here below,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Will be forever mine.
D MajorD D7D7 G+G D MajorD
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Than when we’d first begun.
