Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Amazing Grace 'disrobed' stanza
Many thanks. I am absolutely delighted to find that many are interested by this lovely "lost" stanza of Amazing Grace. I corrected this stanza in my work "Amazing Grace: How Sweet it Sounds" in 2005:

"As now we lay our garments by,
Upon the bed to rest,
So death erelong disrobes us all
Of what we now possess."
