Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone (English & 日本語)

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

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

[2x]
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 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.

(Japanese with Roman character)
驚くばかりの恵みなりき
Odoroku bakari no megumi nariki
この身の穢れの知れる我に。
Kono mi no kegare no chireru ware ni.
まかする心を起こさせたり。
Megumi wa wagami no osore o keshi
恵みは我が身の恐れを消し
Ma ka suru kokoro o okosa setari.

危険をも罠をもさけえたるは
Kiken o mo wana o mosake etaru wa
恵みの御業と言う他なし。
Megumi no miwaza to iu hoka nashi.

私の罪とがあなたは自由に
Watashi no tsumi to ga anata wa jiyū ni
限りのない愛あふれる恵みよ
Kagiri no nai ai afureru megumi yo.

御国に着く朝いよよ高く
Mikuni ni tsuku asa iyoyo takaku
恵みの御神をたたえまつらん
Megumi no mikami o tatae matsu ran.
