Heart Amazing Grace!

Blessings to all on this Good Friday as Christians remember God's sacrificial Grace to us through Jesus Christ




Quote:
"Amazing Grace"

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That sav’d a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev’d;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ’d!

Thro’ many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promis’d good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call’d me here below,
Will be forever mine.

by John New*ton, Ol*ney Hymns (Lon*don: W. Ol*i*ver, 1779
The lyrics are based on 1 Chronicles 17:16-17, a prayer of King David in which he marvels at God's choosing him and his house
Judy Collins' version from the 70s

"For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him." (John 3:16-17)

Amazing Love (Newsboys)

Whenever I am down I just have to remember this day and what our savior went through for us. Nothing compares to HIS pain and sacrifice for us.

Heart
(Verse 3)

And then one day I'll cross that river
I'll fight life's final war with joy
And then, as death gives way to vict'ry,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know HE Lives!




Because HE reigns,
I can face tomorrow,
Because HE reigns,
All fear is gone,




Because I know HE holds my future,
and life is worth the livin' just because HE lives!

From Because He Lives - THE GAITHERS
When they sung at WCLF-TV Channel 22 TELETHON
It was revised for that purpose and I loved
this verse! Gloria Gaither sang it.
