Amazing Grace/ Grásta chugainn

File : John Newton Cumadóir: Amhrán de chuid na ndaoine

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come; 'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far and Grace will lead me home. When we've been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun.

Grásta chugainn, nach binn an fhuaim A tharrtháil ainniseoir Bhíos tráth ar strae, féach fód fúm – Níl mé dall níos mó. Mhúin grásta eagla do mo chroí Chuir grásta stop le huamhan Tháinig deireadh ar fad le himní Nuair a tháinig creideamh chugam! Bhí guais im’ shaol is bhí cathú Ach ó bhaol thána slán! Murach grásta bheinn fós amú Ar an drabhlás, ar fán. Nuair a bheimid míle bliain leis féin Is ag lonrú mar ghrian: Beidh gach smaoineamh beo i bhfad i gcéin Seachas moladh Dé go dian. Grásta chugainn, nach binn an fhuaim A tharrtháil ainniseoir Bhíos tráth ar strae, féach fód fúm – Níl mé dall níos mó.
