Thread Name: Amazing Grace and the Bagpipes
Subject: RE: Amazing Grace and the Bagpipes
Kim C: Check out that link I posted earlier in this thread. There you'll find many verses added later, not just the 10,000-years one, plus you can link from there to the six original verses that appeared in "Olney Hymns" in 1779 (the original title of John Newton's work = "Faith's Review and Expectation") AND to a midi of the tune used for the song by the Old Regular Baptists of Kentucky. It's not 100% clear from that page whether the Regular-Baptists tune is the original one.
