Everyone is familiar with the original Christian Hymn “Amazing Grace” written in the 18th century by Anglican clergyman John Newton. The inspiration for the lyrics was a near death experience sailing on a slave trade ship during a violent storm in 1748. He prayed to God for salvation and redemption and experienced an awakening of his religious convictions.
The melody, composed by American composer William Walker, sung in the Major Pentatonic Scale, later became a popular song used by the Baptist and Methodist evangelical preachers in the Southern United States. The tune is often played with Bagpipes at solemn occasions, such as funerals.
Vocal recordings of “Amazing Grace” became common, with Aretha Franklin becoming one of the more famous performers of this song.
Doxter S has taken inspiration from “Amazing Grace” to create a totally new and original song simply entitled “Amazing”. Sung by a choir, with instrumental accompaniment, Amazing by Doxter S picks up the tempo and lifts the spirit even higher than ever before possible.
Amazing by Doxter S uses pounding percussion, lively hand claps, a variety of spiritual verses, and unforgettable chorus sections. The church organ, electric bass, and electric piano join tied percussion section in support of the choir. The effect is, in a word, Amazing!
Lost but now I'm found
Oh how sweet the sound
I once was lost but I turned myself around
I was blind but all at once I can see
Amazing Grace you have given me a place
The entire human race destiny
Alleluia
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
Alleluia
I once was lost but now I'm found
I was blind but now I see
Saved a wretch like me
Blind but now I see
There is a spark that illuminates the dark
It lies deep within your heart set it free
A brilliant light so magnificent and bright
Like a beacon in the night all can see
Revelation
Jubilation
Lost but now I'm found
Oh how sweet the sound
Touched by the love of the presence from above
Gentle hand that reaches in to my soul
Amazing Grace I accept your warm embrace
Let my being become part of the whole
Saved a wretch like me
Blind but now I see
We're not alone You can feel it in the bone
Our salvation at this moment sublime
Raise you hands high praise the spirit in the sky
Seek redemption from the pure and divine
Revelation
Jubilation
Lost but now I'm found
Oh how sweet the sound
Saved a wretch like me
Blind but now I see
Alleluia
Ahh Ahh Ahh Amen
