Calypso version of "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross"

[Verse 1]
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved, that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, was blind but now I see.

[Verse 2]
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace, and grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour, the hour I first believed.


[Chorus]
Amazing grace (Amazing grace)
How sweet the sound (How sweet the sound)
I once was lost (I once was lost)
but now I'm found

[Verse 3]
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word, His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long, as long as life endures.

[Verse 4]
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun, the sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be, will be forever mine.

[Chorus]

[Verse 5]

[Chorus]

[Verse 5]
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining, shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when, than when we'd first begun.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Coda]
I now am found.
I now am found.
