Amazing Grace" is a Christian hymn written by English poet and clergyman John Newton (17251807) and published in 1779. With a message that forgiveness and redemption is possible regardless of the sins people commit and that the soul can be delivered from despair through the mercy of God, "Amazing Grace" is one of the most recognizable songs in the English-speaking world.
Newton wrote the words from personal experience. He grew up without any particular religious conviction but his life's path was formed by a variety of twists and coincidences that were often put into motion by his recalcitrant insubordination. He was pressed into the Royal Navy and became a sailor, eventually participating in the slave trade. One night a terrible storm battered his vessel so severely that he became frightened enough to call out to God for mercy, a moment that marked the beginning of his spiritual conversion. His career in slave trading lasted a few years more until he quit going to sea altogether and began studying theology.
Lyric for Amazing Grace
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.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.
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.
German Translation:
Amazing Grace, wie süß der Klang,
Das war ein Kerl wie mich gerettet.
Ich habe einmal verloren wurde, aber jetzt bin gefunden,
War blind, aber jetzt sehe ich.
T'was Grace gelehrt, dass mein Herz zu befürchten.
Und Grace, meinen Ängsten befreit.
Wie wertvoll war, dass Grace erscheinen
Die erste Stunde habe ich geglaubt.
Durch viele Gefahren, Mühen und Schlingen
Bin ich schon;
'Tis Grace brachte mir sicher, dass bisher
und Grace führt mich nach Hause.
Der Herr hat versprochen, gut zu mir.
Sein Wort meine Hoffnung sichert.
Er wird mein Schild und Teil,
Wie lange das Leben.
Ja, wenn dieses Fleisch und Herz versagen werden,
Und das sterbliche Leben erlischt,
Ich werde besitzen innerhalb des Vorhangs,
Ein Leben in Freude und Frieden.
Wenn wir hier sind zehntausend Jahre
Hell leuchten wie die Sonne.
Wir haben nicht weniger Tage singen zum Lob Gottes
Als bei der ersten haben wir begonnen.
Amazing Grace, wie süß der Klang,
Das war ein Kerl wie mich gerettet.
Ich habe einmal verloren wurde, aber jetzt bin gefunden,
War blind, aber jetzt sehe ich.
