Amazing Memories,Amazing Voice

This is one stirring version. When John Newton penned this song , after being saved and repenting of being involved in the slave trade and then preaching against it ,  I have no doubt his eyes would well up with humble tears ,giving his Saviour all the glory , to hear a powerful version like this sung by Wintley Phipps .

My special memory of this song goes back to my Mom. When I first started learning guitar, my Mom who could play , help me learn the basics of this song .More or less it was G,C,D and that was it. There we were 2 non believers  singing one of most loved Christian hymns of all time. Who knows what seeds have been planted with this song. When I hear it , it sends right back to a kid with my Mom.

Now when I hear it I also praise God for that amazing grace , that saved a wretch like me and my Mom who went to be with the Lord 19 years ago. God is great indeed.

Verse Of The Day  :    The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. 
(2 Corinthians 13:14 ESV)
