Amazing Grace (Revised)
An act of grace, knees on the ground
That shows their dignity.
We all are lost and need re-found
We’re blind to what we see.
‘Twas hate that caused our hearts to fear,
And made those fears believed;
How furious did that hate appear,
When we were first deceived.
This hateful anger spoils our cares
No matter where it’s from;
It’s hate that causes us to fear,
And hate destroys our home.
The Law has promised rights to me,
Its Word my life secures;
It will protect and keep me free
Wherever Love endures.
O we’ve been here ten thousand times,
And nothing still is done,
We’ve no less ways to heal each race,
And make us all as One.
Amazing Grace! How sweet it is,
When we shall all be free.
When hate and fear are nowhere near,
And Love wins you and me!
