12. JOHN NEWTON 1725 - 1807
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, my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear,
the hour I first believed.

13. “Although my memory's
fading, I remember two things
very clearly: I am a great sinner
and Christ is a great Savior.”
John Newton
