John Newton — Amazing Grace

    	    	Вступление

D                   G          D
Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound) 
 D                       A7
That sav'd a wretch like me! 
 D                   G          D
I once was lost, but now am found, 
 D          A7        D
Was blind, but now I see.  
 
 D                        G          D
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, 
 D                   A7
And grace my fears reliev'd; 
 D                G          D
How precious did that grace appear 
 D          A7        D
The hour I first believ'd! 
 
 D                   G          D
Thro' many dangers, toils, and snares, 
 D               A7
I have already come; 
 D                       G          D
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, 
 D          A7        D
And grace will lead me home. 
 
The Lord has promis'd good to me, 
 D                  A7
His word my hope secures; 
 D                 G          D
He will my shield and portion be 
 D          A7        D
As long as life endures. 
 
 D                       G          D
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail, 
 D                       A7
And mortal life shall cease; 
 D                 G          D
I shall possess, within the veil, 
 D        A7      D
А life of joy and peace. 
 
 D                      G          D
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, 
 D                  A7
The sun forbear to shine; 
 D                   G          D
But God, who call'd me here below, 
 D        A7      D
Will be forever mine.
