_______________________________________________

I grew this heart into a drifter
never felt the roots I bare
sold my sight, oh, brother, sister
for a mountain of fool’s gold, it’s gone
only God knows, God knows where

soul was restless for redemption
feet were lookin' for a place to stand
well, I ain’t got no life
and you know I ain’t got no money
just the faith of an empty hand, empty hand

Chorus:
amazing grace, I feel you comin' up slowly now
like the sun is risin', heat on my face
oh, love that keeps on shinin', don’t let the shadow come
you know I gotta feel your healin' rays

hitched a ride; I was a beggar
and I had murder on my hands
needed water to rinse these stains
but only blood could remove what’s spillin'
and pardon me to blame

[CHORUS]

amazing grace, I feel you comin' up slowly now
amazing grace, I feel you comin' up slowly now

amazing grace, I feel you comin' up slowly now
like the sun is risin', heat on my face
oh love that keeps on shinin' don’t let the shadow come
you know I got to, yeah

[CHORUS]

see, I gotta feel your healin' rays
you know I gotta feel your amazing grace
