Intro: G Em G Em D C D
Verse
Em
Oh I was a sinner an outsider
Seperated from the God I love
G
I carried a debt a price on my head
I could not free myself from
C
And there was a burden I could feel its heavy load
A judgement from above
D
I was slave to my shame prisoner to the grave
Hoping for freedom
Em
Then my story changed!
A weighty judgement was lifted on my behalf
D
And I was lost yes but I've been found
By an anchor that holds me fast
C
My redeemer my reconciler
He has freed me from the past
D
And set me right he called me by name
And lifted my curse at last!
[Refrão]

Verse
Em
And oh the joy of my burdens lifted
Of the prisoner set free
D
I went from stumbling through the darkness
To walking in light and now I can see
C
The hope that I have is sure and steadfast
Has bound my wandering heart to thee
D
So I'm singin' "Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me"
Em
And he took my place!
He paid a debt he did not owe
D
He came in the flesh bore my sin and death
A fate that I will never know
C
And Jesus Christ the ransom for all
He counted it joy to take the grave
D
And then God raised him from the dead
G
And in his name is the power to save!
[Refrão]
