Amazing Grace

Assignment: re-write lyrics to Amazing Grace in your own words.
Result: someone close to me (who wishes to remain anonymous) wrote the following....

The winds that rush within the storm,
Blind my eyes and ears.
Your silent words fall gently through
The loudest of my fears.

My heart bleeds deep within my soul,
Shaken, broken, torn.
Your grace a sigh of deep-full rest,
Life and peace reborn.

My deepest hate is for myself,
Reviled, despised, undone.
Faith hears you calling me your own,
In grace your be-loved son.

Father you are good to me,
My rock, my hope, my all.
Your grace costs more than I can pay,
Yet your grace is all I own.
