Words for verse 2 by an unknown author
Music for this adaptation by Jarek Czechowicz

For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8

One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see! John 9:25

VERSE 1
Amazing grace! how sweet the sound
That saved someone like me!
I once was lost, but now I'm found,
Was blind, but now I see.

VERSE 2
When we've been there ten thousand years,
bright shining as the sun,
we've no less days to sing God's praise
than when we first begun.

Below are the original words by John Newton for verse 1:
"Amazing grace! how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see."
John Newton was formerly the captain of slave ship.

Peace
