Hymn 96 - Amazing Grace

Main message: Amazing grace has come to all mankind.


Bible references:

  • V1. "saved a wretch like me" (1 Tim 1:15)

“Lost” (1 Peter 2:25)

“Was blind, but now I see” (John 9:25)

  • V2. "grace" (Acts 11:23)

"dangers" (Rom 8:35)

  • V4. "shield" (Psalm 28:7)

"portion" (Psalm 16:5)

  • V5. "within the veil" (Heb 6:19)

  • V6. "shining as the sun" (Dan 12:3)


Keywords: amazing, grace, sweet, saved, wretch, lost, found, blind, see, fear, relieve, precious, believed, dangers, toils, snared, safe, home, promised, good, hope, secures, Shield, Portion, life, endures, heart, flesh, fail, mortal, cease, possess, joy, peace, ten thousand years, bright, shining, sun, praise, first begun


Interpretation notes:

  • ‘Grace’ is reached by jumping from low D to B, an interval of a 6th higher, then falls back down. 

  • The first climax occurs on high D for ‘me.’ 

  • The higher register for ‘me’ is followed by a lower register for ‘found’ and ‘see.’

"Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord." – Eph. 5:19
