Amazing grace, how sweet, my sins have been forgiven; I was lost before, but now I have found it, and I am blind now!
Such grace makes me awe and comfort; How precious it is to be blessed when you first write!
I have survived many dangers, tests and traps; Thanks to the Lord, I'm not afraid of safety, but also lead me home!
In the coming jubilee, saints will get together and love each other for thousands of years; Joy and praise, in front of the father's seat, may that day come soon!
