Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) 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

My chains are gone I’ve been set free My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns Unending love, amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow The sun forbear to shine
But God, who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
