 CHRISTIAN POEMS

AMAZING GRACE






A "Warm-N-Cozy" Greeting








His ship it tossed on the angry sea
He cried for mercy with impassioned plea
And God delivered from the angry waves
John Newton and his cargo of slaves

By amazing grace he was saved
And all on board who were enslaved
Who were chained together with iron link
God calmed the sea before they did sink

John called his deliverance great
Rescued from a watery fate
Like the chains that bound the slaves
He was fettered by sin until a God who saves

Broke the links with amazing grace
And now for John's soul a resting place
Slaves were shackled; but more bound was he
Until God snapped the bonds and set him free

He humbled himself and was not proud
When all was lost; to call aloud
His ship now ready to break apart
He gave his life to God and also his heart

He turned his back to the sea
No longer to enslave but set men free
By preaching to sinners of amazing grace
And in Christ alone their trust should place

For there is grace with God and amazing too
Love and mercy there is for you
And those who will humble; with grace will meet
And pardon find at Jesus' feet

Then let our voices rise again
Praise with words that John did pen
When Hell itself should have been our place
Sing once again of AMAZING GRACE
