Lyrics: Traditional
Music: Traditional
Played in the studio by Jerry Garcia & David Grisman with Tony Rice, but
I'm not sure if Jerry ever played it live. Also played as a (solo) instrumental
by Rob Wasserman, by Robert Hunter in the 1980s (once), and by Phil Lesh and Friends.
Joan Baez sang it with the Grateful Dead on 13 January 1980.
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
T'was grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fear relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
