This is just a simple chord progression to strum while singing.  I
included the measure bars to make it easier to sing.  Play it and
see how fun an adaptation it is.  I hope this works as well for
others as it has for me.  Please continue to submit hymns of
Gospel Testimony.

Timing: 3/4

Amazing Grace
John Newton (1725-1807)

Adaptation by:  Daniel Ufford

 D                 G         D
A|mazing|Grace! how|sweet the|sound,
                         A7 d.---d
That|saved a|wretch lik|e me!|
   D        D7        G      D
I |once was|lost, but|now am|found,
               A7     D  d.---d
Was|blind, but|now I |see.|



'Twas|grace, that|taught my|heart to|fear,

And|grace my|fears re|lieved;|

How|precious|did that|grace ap|pear

The|hour I |first be|lieved.|



Thro'|many|dangers,|toils and|snares,

I|have al|ready|come;|

'Tis|grace hath|bro't me|safe, thus|far,

And|grace will|lead me|home.|



When|we've been|there ten|thousand|years,

Bright|shining|as th|e sun,|

We've|no less|days to|sing God's|praise

Than|when we |first be|gun.|

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.
