這首世界名曲Amazing Grace，幾經世界級歌手翻唱，目前版本已有幾千種（一說為上萬種），曾蟬聯美國流行音樂排行榜的第一名。
Judy Collins在沒有音樂伴奏，以清唱的方式最能表達原曲聖潔祥和與撼動人心。
此時此刻，讓我們暫時遠離一切世俗紛擾，以這首歌曲洗滌塵沾的心靈。



Amazing grace　　　　　　Judy Collins

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

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace that fear relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds
And drives away his fear

Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free
No, there's a cross for everyone
And there's a cross for me.

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
