Amazing Grace - Sam Cooke And The Soul Stirrers

T’was Grace that brought me safe thus far (yeah, Lord

and Grace will lead me home

(One more thing I want to say)

(One day I came to Jesus)

(One day I came to Jesus as I walked)

I came to Jesus as I walked (sometimes I cried all night long)

I came to Jesus as I walked

(but I stayed on my knees, I said father I want you to help me)

I came to Jesus as I walked

(because all my friends are gone)

I came to Jesus as I walked (yeah)???

(Let me tell you)

(as I stayed on my knees)

I found in him a resting place (yes I did)

I found in him a resting place (I stay here right down on my knee children

I found in him a resting place

(I said Lord if you see me)

I found in him a resting place

(ooh Lord)

he has???

(let me tell you one more thing)

(I told him father I stretch my hand to thee)

My Lord I stretch my hand to thee

(I don’t know nobody else to go to ya)

My Lord I stretch my hand to thee

(sometimes when I walk the floor all night long)

My Lord I stretch my hand to thee

(oooh)

Lord Where can I go.

(But I told him these words)

(I said Lord if I was yours)???

(sometimes I still awake in the midniight hour)

(yes sir where shall I go)

Where shall I go

(one more thing I’m gonna tell you)

Amazing grace how sweet it sounds

(it sounds so good to me)

Amazing grace how sweet it sounds

(when I sing this song I cry sometimes)

Amazing grace how sweet it sounds

(yes sir, and I used to hear my momma say these same words)

Amazing grace how sweet it sounds

(she said ooh, Lord)

save a wretch like me

(but what I like to hear you say, and she said)

(Lord I once was lost but now I’m found)

I once was lost but now I’m found

(yes I was)

(just walked the floor all night long

I once was lost but now I’m found

(sometime I would see her when she sit in her old rocking chair

and she said Lord have mercy)

I once was lost but now I’m found
