amazing grace …so much hope

Chris Tomlin’s version of Amazing Grace (my chains are gone) has been going on and on in my mind. Just listening to it and pondering on the lyrics reminds me of what a wonderful Saviour we have. Such a comfort is the Lord in our moments of doubt and struggle. We’ve been attending the memorial services and all have been challenged that no matter what, their hope is always in the Jesus. I am grieved that such a young life felt that he had no hope. To all who read this, remember there is always hope, there is always a way out.

Ps 25: 3 “No One whose hope in in you will ever be put to shame.”

My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, Amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
