Letra de
Amazing Grace

Amazing Grace es un himno escrito por el poeta inglés John Newton y publicado en 1779. Es una de las canciones más reconocibles en el mundo angloparlante. El mensaje de la canción habla de redención y perdón recibidos a través de la gracia de Dios, una experiencia personal para Newton, quien trabajó como comerciante de esclavos antes de convertirse al cristianismo. Newton escribió las palabras como una ilustración de su propia conversión al crist ... ianismo, y la melodía asociada se agregó unos 70 años después de su muerte. Ver más [+]

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 grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed!
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
My God, My Saviour has ransomed me.
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
Un-ending love, amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
My God, My Saviour has ransomed me.
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
Un-ending love, amazing grace
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
My God, My Saviour has ransomed me.
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
Un-ending love, amazing grace

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