"Amazing Grace"
Author: John Newton (1779)
Tune: NEW BRITAIN
Confession Songs
Published in 1389 hymnals

"Amazing Grace" is a folk tune originally from the Appalachian region of the southern United States.
It is pentatonic with melodic figures that outline triads. The song became popular among Baptist and Methodist preachers
in the United States during the Second Great Awakening of the early 19th century. It has been associated with more than
20 melodies. The film "Amazing Grace" is based on the true-life story of William Wilberforce, a leader of the British
abolition movement, and chronicles his epic struggle to pass a law to end the slave trade in the late 18th century.

"Amazing Grace" is a Christian hymn published in 1779 with words written in 1772 by English Anglican clergyman and poet
John Newton (1725–1807). It is an immensely popular hymn, particularly in the United States, where it is used for both religious
and secular purposes.

Ephesians 2:1-10 "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 
in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air,
the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh,
carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our
trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and
seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the
immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith.
And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."
