These are the verses I have. I would appreciate anyone posting any other verses to this GREAT song.

There are lots of different ways to perform the song, too. Bill Moyers did a special on Amazing Grace on public television, which showed many different groups and all kinds of interpretations. I like it bluegrass style, and also bluesy. Or any other way.

Amazing Grace
John Newton & Wm Walker

(Chorus)
G C G
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
D A D7
That saved a wretch like me
G C G
I once was lost but now I'm found
Em D7 G C G D7
Was blind but now I see.

'twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did the grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
It's grace that brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home.

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

How long, dear Saviour, oh how long
Have I on earth to stay?
Roll on, roll on, ye wheels of time
And bring that joyful day.

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

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds
And drives away his fear.

Must Jesus bear the cross along
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for everyone
And there's a cross for me.



We lay our garments by
Upon our beds to rest
'though death may soon disrobe us all
Of what we now possess.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess, within the veil
A life of joy and peace.

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

Amazing grace has set me free
To touch, to taste, to feel
The wonders of accepting love
Have made me whole and real.

The world shall soon to ruin go
The sun refuse to shine
But God, who called me here below
Shall be forever mine.
