Arlo Guthrie - Amazing Grace Lyrics






[Chorus:]
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

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
Oh how precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

[Chorus]

Shall I be wafted to the skies
On flowery beds of ease
While others strive to win the prize
And sail on bloody seas

[Chorus]

  12. K.... S....

    amazing. Saw him in concert early 00's at Eastern Mich Univ.

  13. G.... G....

    He's been singing it for a long time, remembering hearing it in Claremont N.H. back in the 70's.

  14. E.... H....

    Arlo, thanks for all

  15. p.... ....

    DAMN.......forgot how much this guy meant to me in my youth. God bless you Mr. Guthrie.

  16. K.... W....

    I loved this song long before it became everybody's favorite. I still love it.

  17. T.... 3....

    There's only one way to the Father, and that's Jesus Christ the Savior. If you preach another gospel you will be cursed.
    The Bible is clear about who Jesus Christ is, and he alone is the one to follow. Hallelujah!!!

  18. J.... M....

    I love Arlo Guthrie, but "bring your own god church" is total blasphemy. If you do even casual research, Arlo is not a Christian, although he holds some "Christian" beliefs. He is basically a Hindu and a member of an awful cult, or at least very closely affiliated with it. As I said, I've been a fan of his since the mid-1970s, but to hear him – or anyone – say things like that is very grievous. Notice how non-Christians love to ridicule and attack Christians, but get so defensive when whatever they might believe is confronted with the truth of the Bible. Not everyone who claims to be a Christian really is, and those false professors have done a lot of damage. But I am praying for Arlo and his family, and hope one day they can truly all sing "Amazing Grace" and know what it really is. BTW, don't bother with the assaults, I won't read them.

    J.... M....

    You just Dont get it, nor do you understand!

    J.... M....

    Perhaps you should remember Jesus wasnt a Christian!

  19. G.... P....

    Thank you... great video!

  20. A.... W....

    The problem is, Jehovah God's word says that there is only One God and His Son's name is Jesus Christ. Another sticking point is that this Jesus says that He 'is the way, the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father but by the Son'. So beware of slick talking musicians that try to change what God's word says.

  21. G.... E....

    Wow!  What's not to love...……...Awesome...11/3/19

  35. H.... U....

    I love this guy always have ever since the city of New Orleans

  36. D.... M....

    I love Arlo's storytelling. ❤️

  37. f.... ....

    There is only one God.

    f.... ....

    Yes, and there have been many prophets to bring God's message to people at different eras as needed. Jesus is the latest prophet, I think. I'm pretty ignorant about religion. I just believe that we are all spiritual beings and accountable to the same God. I believe the basic tenet of most religions is 'do unto others as you would have done unto you'.

  38. L.... ....

    A single positive comment or gesture can make someone's day in ways we know nothing about. Push love, push kindness and above all TEACH COMPASSION ✌🏼❤️🎶

  39. J.... M....

    Arlo Guthrie!!! A national treasure!! Beautiful! Thank you.

  52. J.... F....

    As I have watched and listened now multiple times, I left a bit confused.

    Amazing GRACE is absolutely real.

    SALVATION is REAL.

    And it does lead one to a desire to give that same sweet gift to anyone and everyone willing to receive it.

    So having a building to perform good deeds out of is awesome.

    Denying the SOURCE of this AMAZING GRACE, is a tragic error.

    Fashioning a " god " of your own imagination and ideals is really just a placebo, unable to deliver the needed dose of ENCOUNTER, found in seeking the REAL AND LIVING CREATOR.

    So I applaud the effort to help all who are hurting and needing support.

    But my hearts desire would be that people who enter his building, bringing their own " god " with them, would be exposed in some way to the TRUTH OF CHRIST, and leave with the answer to ALL of LIFES issues.

    May we all be so lucky as to find that SUPREME SOURCE of AMAZING GRACE, the BEING who breathed the BIBLE, who DIED to bring us LIFE.

    YAHOVAH / FATHER
    JESUS OF NAZARETH/ SON
    HOLY SPIRIT

  53. B.... ....

    He is a product of his Father's humble upbringing. Woody Guthrie along with leadbelly and many others resonated with the workers, those struggling. Arlo lived in the shadow of Huntington's Disease that took Woody's life. Bob Dillon along with so many others had Woody on a pedestal. Bear a thought for Arlo as Huntingon's being heritdatry lived with the fear of inheriting the faulty gene. Majorie, Woody's wife and Arlo 's mother wrote the preface in a book I have called"Living with Huntington's disease". They as a family fought the demons. Thank God it appears Arlo skipped the faulty gene (50-50%) and has lived out to be able to share his talent with us today. God Bless.

  54. D.... R....

    Good job, Arlo! You were always a sweet breath of fresh air. You still are... Thanks brother.

  55. K.... J....

    Love Arlo, Man what a talent

  56. D.... C....

    Thank you for your generosity of spirit. It has given me more smiles, laughs, tears for one reason or another, and the best damn feelings a human can experience.

  57. S.... W....

    Thanks ARLO

  58. A.... D....

    Words that can ring true forever

  59. J.... B....

    Anyone can sing "Amazing Grace", living it is another thing. Arlo is nice but he's a pagan.

    J.... B....

    bullshit ….the divine is not found in a church ...its found in a heart

  60. G.... D....

    Just love it - we need more like Arlo - thank you so very much. Oh & I love the story about the rabbits too.

  61. A.... W....

    I really enjoyed watching and listening to this, Thank you for posting, i've loved Arlo for a long time !!!

  62. C.... C....

    Magic........XXXXXX

  63. N.... P....

    Carlo is good,good

  64. g.... ....

    We saw Arlo Guthrie in Pampa Tx, on the anniversary of Woody Guthrie's birth, 100 years before. He sang Woody's songs. So many songs. We had a wonderful night. Thanks

    g.... ....

    I had the pleasure of seeing him in a little club called Bogarts in Cincinnati (a few hundred people at the time and 2 bars) in 1978. He closed the show with this, and everyone in the place was on their feet singing along. The show also included a full length rendition of Alice's Restaurant, which he didn't do very often back then. An awesome time was had by all there. As others have said, a national treasure that everyone should see.

  65. m.... ....

    This song will always be relevant because it a universal message. Timeless in its message to all
    that will follow. Take head children and remember the teaching of those who are old and have experienced the world and learned the worlds lessons.

  66. r.... w....

    I WAS BLIND BUT NOW I SEE

  67. L.... B....

    Thank you for sharing your love storytelling - your are the best. Arlo!

  68. L.... i....

    there is only one God. And one day every knee will bow. BUT it is Amazing Grace to be loved by him and he does tell us to love our neighbor as ourselves. NOT many religions really teach that. THAT is something you need to get from the LORD himself. LOVE>

  69. k.... k....

    Arlo stayed true

  70. S.... S....

    Fabulous!!!

  71. S.... B....

    Arlo I'm 60 years old and this summer I lost my dog and I lost my rabbit and I had open heart surgery and the day my rabbit died I was looking for Amazing Grace and all of the sudden you popped up of all people and it kind of changed my life and it made me think so December 1st them taking my rabbit my dog's ashes cuz they were best friends and I'm taking them all over the country to spread them every beautiful spot I hope I wind up and Stockbridge thank you sir

  72. T.... ....

    Arlo ... Good hearing from you! But you still aren't there yet ... The "Twas blind, but now I see" means you have uncovered that, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes unto the Father, but by me." It's all about Jesus ... One God, three different forms, not "bring your own God." You gotta get that right, or be left ...

  73. D.... M....

    Arlo may be th son of one of Americas greatest poets, But Arlo should be recognised for HIS talent. As an Aussie, I think he is up there with some of the greatest. Wonderful story teller. :)

    D.... M....

    This post should have thousands of likes by now!!! THIS IS SO TRUE!!!! Arlo you are one of a kind!!!! So blessed to have you walk this earth spreading your love and messages of hope and peace everywhere. Thank you!!

  74. D.... V....

    Did he wrote this music while riding his bike around a mountain pass?

    D.... V....

    He didn't write it period.

    D.... V....

    You did not get the joke.....

  75. B.... C....

    Love this man since 1966

  76. P.... ....

    Made the heart and soul feel Good!

  77. J.... B....

    He used to end every concert with this song. I was sorry when he stopped doing that. In Charlotte, at an old church, they turned in the lights behind the stained glass windows when he started this song. It was amazing.

  78. L.... S....

    Beautiful Truth Amen

  79. c.... b....

    Makes you feel so good..
