πAbout This Song
"Amazing Grace" is a Christian hymn published in 1779, with words written in 1772 by the English poet and Anglican clergyman John Newton (1725β1807).
Newton wrote the words from personal experience. He grew up without any particular religious conviction, but his life's path was formed by a variety of twists and coincidences that were often put into motion by others' reactions to what they took as his recalcitrant insubordination. He was pressed (conscripted) into service in the Royal Navy.
βAmazing Graceβ by Lisbeth Scott is a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the timeless hymn, blending ethereal vocals with cinematic elegance. Known for her work on major film scores, Scott brings a soulful and emotional depth to the song, capturing its themes of redemption and grace with powerful simplicity. Her version stands out for its modern, ambient arrangement and heartfelt delivery, making it a favorite for moments of reflection, worship, and film. With her signature voice, Lisbeth Scott breathes new life into this classic spiritual anthem.

Amazing Grace, How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
T'was blind but now I see
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear
And Grace, my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
We have already come.
T'was grace that brought us safe thus far
And grace will lead us home,
And grace will lead us home
Amazing grace, Howe Sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
T'was blind but now I see
Was blind, but now I see.
