Strangely Amazingly Graceful

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound Beautiful face my heart does pound With hollowed hands and feet to match And pierced beside, you stand and watch Oh gracious eyes, that saw me saved That looked for death to buy a grave A body blessed forever praised To never rest from giving grace How now would I be half as good, Or maybe half as merciful? For now our sins can come to go Since when his blood secured tomorrow Thou Prince of Peace, my righteousness He whom my soul would always bless My advocate at the right hand And still he sits, he doesn’t stand My faith and hope and charity Who’d love me for eternity? Who catches me before each fall? And loves me till forevermore Why now would I say no to thee? The one whose blood has set me free
