Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:
One of my very first song gifts from God.   
Probably around 4th, after AMAZING GRACE BLUES  "re-mix" using someone else's lyrics!, and the third verse of what became I CHOOSE YOUR CHOICE;   
and the verse of "I Praise You Despite",  and the

start of the flowing stream of songs with ABOVE MY SORROW SEA.
Squeaky Wheel Praising was around then too...
         I needed to write a song to remember God's Bible words with scripture references!

Traditional by John Newton (Public Domain CCLI #22025)  
Dedicated to our Amazing God 18 April 2008

LYRICS
Traditional Verse   with new  CHORUS  1:
Amazing grace!  How sweet the sound  that saved a wretch like me!
I  once was lost,  but     now am found;  was blind, but now   I  see....

    How self-centered  I   have   been,    How I’ve   focused all  on  me
    How amazed     I am to be graced by Your love
       and  by all of  Your tears for me.................         ( “Oooo” 2nd time)........

Traditional Verse   with new    CHORUS  2:  
Amazing grace!  How sweet the sound  that saved a wretch like me!
I  once was lost, but now am found;  was blind, but now   I  see....

    How for-giving You have been,   Suff' ring anything for me.
    How a - mazed I am to be graced by Your love
       that You'd die on a   tree -- for     me.................     ( “Oooo” 2nd time)........

Traditional Verse  with new  CHORUS 3:    
Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come.
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will bring me home....

    Where You open wide Your arms, Calling, "Come, and be with Me!"
    How amazed I have been to be  graced  by Your love,
       by Your welcoming  tears  for me.................        

                                                                                                   ( “Oooo” 2nd time)........

Traditional Verse  with new   CHORUS 4:
When I've been there 10,000  years, bright, shining as the sun,
I've no  less days to sing Your praise than when I'd first begun,

    Singing "Hal - le- lu- jah,  Lord!   I was blind, but now    I  see!
    How amazed I have been to be graced by Your love
       and by   all  of Your tears   for  me.................        ( “Oooo” 2nd time)........

“But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, 
               might taste death for everyone.”
