Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I've heard them sing "He Paid The Price"

and "Jesus Bore It All"

I've heard them sing "I'm Coming Home"

and "Hear The Master's Call"

I've heard them sing the modern songs

and songs of long ago

But "Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound"

is the sweetest song I know


Amazing grace (Amazing grace, how sweet the sound)

How sweet the sound (Oh how sweet is the sound)

No sweeter song (sweeter song, sweeter song)

Could e'er be found (In this life could be found)

I've heard of a fountain (Heard of the dear Savior's blood)

Filled with blood (That washed us white, white as snow)

But "Amazing Grace" ("Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound")

Is the sweetest song I know


It was the song my momma sang

in sweet and humble voice

Like music from the world above,

it made my soul rejoice

Its soothing words and melody

like rippling waters flow

Oh, "Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound"

is the sweetest song I know
