【備註：1-3,5,6段為John Newton所填詞。歌詞的意境深遠，歌詞很長，演唱者很少將其唱完，大都只選擇其中的3～4段，但已使人動容。】

1. 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.

    奇異恩典，何等甘甜，我罪已得赦免；前我失喪，今被尋回，瞎眼今得看見。

（奇異恩典，如此甘甜，我罪竟蒙赦免；昔我迷失，今被尋回，盲目重又得見。）

（奇異恩典，樂聲何等甜美，拯救了像我這般無助的人；我曾迷失，如今已被找回，曾經盲目，如今又能看見。）

 （奇異恩典，甘似蜜甜，憐憫敗壞如我；昨天罪中失喪，此刻有你贖回，瞎眼今可得見。）

2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved;

    How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed.

    如此恩典，使我敬畏，使我心得安慰；初信之時，即蒙恩惠，真是何等寶貴。

（如斯恩典，令心敬畏，解脫萬千憂懼；歸信伊始，恩典即臨，何等奇異珍貴。）

（神蹟教我心存敬畏，減輕我心中的恐懼；神蹟的出現何等珍貴，那是我第一次相信神的時刻。）

（神聖恩典可敬可畏，除我憂驚困擾；救恩有多寶貴，呈現到我面前，從信一刻可見。）

3. Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come;

    'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.

    歷經艱險，勞苦奔走，我今來到主前；都是主恩，扶持保佑，恩典帶進永久。

（許多危險，試煉網羅，我巳安然經過；靠主恩典，安全不怕，更引導我歸家。）

（沖決網羅，歷盡磨難，我已踏上歸途；恩典眷顧，一路攙扶，引我安返故土。）

（歷經無數險阻與陷阱，我已走了過來；神蹟保我安全無虞至今，神蹟將指引我回到家中。）

4. The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures;

    He will my shield and portion be, As long as life endures.（此段為John P. Rees所作）

（主曾許諾，降福於我，聖言信靠不移；此生此世，托庇於主，與主不棄不離。）

5. Yea, when this heart and flesh shall fail, And mortal life shall cease;

     I shall possess within the vail, A life of joy and peace.

    身心可朽，生命可絕，聖殿巍然不毀；寄身其間，平安喜樂，人生圓滿豐沛。

6. The world shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun refuse to shine;

    But God, who called me here below, Shall be forever mine.

    But God, who called me here below, Shall be forever mine.

大地即將，如雪消融，太陽終會隕沒；唯有上帝，與我永在，聲聲喚我依托。唯有上帝，與我永在，聲聲喚我依托。

★How sweet the name of Jesus sounds.in a believer's ear;

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds. And drives away his fear.

主耶穌的名字，在信徒的耳裡聽來多麼甜美；那撫平了他的煩憂，治癒了他的傷，趕走了他的恐懼。

★Must Jesus bear the cross alone.And all the world go free;

No, there's a cross for everyone.And there's a cross for me.

耶穌必得獨自揹負十字架，以拯救全世界；但每個人的心裡，包括我在內，都有著一副十字架。

★When we've been here ten thousand years.Bright shining as the sun,

We've no less days to sing God's praise.than when we first begun.
