Amazing Grace Lyrics (My Chains Are Gone) Pentatonix
Amazing Grace Lyrics The 'Amazing Grace', first published in 1779, is a seemingly ageless Christian hymn. His passionate text came to life seven years ago at the hands of the English poet and pastor John Newton.
Rouhani gained popularity in the United States through Baptist and Methodist preachers, who often chose to perform it in their service.
And years later, it will become known as the anthem of the civil rights movement - despite its author being a former slave trader.
Over the course of two centuries, more than 20 melodies have been associated with the beloved hymn, but the most sung melody today was written by the American composer William Walker, who set it on the popular melody known as 'New Britain'.
It is a simple but powerful message from God of forgiveness, redemption and mercy, which has made the 'wonderful grace' one of the most universal and enduring praises in the world.
Amazing Grace Lyrics
Amazing grace
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
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Amazing Grace Lyrics
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood, His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace
Amazing Grace Lyrics
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Amazing Grace Lyrics
My chains are gone
I've been set free (been set free)
My God, my Savior has ransomed me (ransomed me)
And like a flood (like a flood) His mercy rains (mercy rains)
Unending love, oh, Amazing grace
Amazing Grace Lyrics
The Earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood, His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace (grace)
Amazing Grace Lyrics
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind (was blind), but now (but now) I see
