Amazing Grace Songtext
von Acappella

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 it was grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believe

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We′ve no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun

Well ama- (ama-) 'zing grace (′zing grace), how sweet (how sweet) the sound (the sound)
That saved (that saved) a wretch (a wretch) like me (a wretch like me)
I once (I once) was lost (was lost), but now (but now) I am found (I′m found)
Was blind (was blind) but now (but now) I can see (but now I see)


Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
That very hour, that very hour I believed

When we've (when we′ve) been there (been there) ten thou- (ten thou-) 'sand years (′sand years)
Bright shi- (bright shi-) 'ning as (′ning as) the sun (bright as the sun)
We've no (we've no) less days (less days) to sing (to sing) my-my God′s praise (God′s praise)
Than when-when we (than when) we first (we first) begun (we first begun)

Well ama- (ama-) 'zing grace (′zing grace), how sweet (how sweet) the sound (the sound)
Sound that saved (that saved) that saved a wretch (a wretch) like me (a wretch like me)
I once (I once) was lost (was lost), but now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now (but now) I am found (I'm found)
Was blind (was blind) but now (but now) I can see (but now I see)

I was blind (was blind) but now (but now) I can see (but now I see)
I was blind (was blind) but now (but now) I can see (but now I see)
