I once was lost, but now I’m found. Amazing grace, oh, how sweet the sound. Amazing, ‘mazing grace. Amazing grace. I once was blind, but now I see. Amazing grace saved a wretch like me. Grace taught my heart to fear, grace my fears relieved; grace did that hour appear when I believed. Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come: amazing grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home! I once was lost, but now I’m found! [John Newton]
