AMAZING GACE
(Ecosse - USA)
Amazing grace
(Remerciements à Steeve Sériat, au Bouzouki irlandais)
Version courte (3 couplets et rerpise du premier couplet)
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.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come.
‘T’is grace that brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
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.
