Amazing Grace (My Chains are Gone)
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm 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
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!!! It brings to me tears every time!!!!
We've thought about it, but with our rather long guest list it probably won't work out. Plus, the problem lies with not being able to make the great hall into our reception place...and we definitely can't fit everyone into the lobby for that! :)
But in any case, I love that song...I'm sorry I came in late and missed it!
I can't sing Amazing Grace without turning into a weeping, blubbering fool ;) It's so nice to "meet" you... I'll have to come back later and copy that chocolate cake recipe - it looks wicked good!
I love this song! It's my anthem!
Thanks for the reminder today! I needed it!!!

I love this song, too! I have had to attend two funerals in the past few months and this song was either played or sung at both. It brings me to tears, too. My husband and I listen to it often in the car. I love music so much, I just started having Music Monday on my blog.
LOVE that song!
