Tuesdays at 2pm
Welcome to the July 21st edition of Sounds of Home!
Amazing Grace, How Sweet the Sound
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.
‘Twas 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 has 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.
ElW #779, vs. 1-4
