how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now
I’m 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. Thro’ 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 And when this flesh
and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace.
6. When we’ve been there
ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s grace,
Than when we first began.
John Newton, BBC Songs of praise, 282 || PS 15
