Ablazing Grace
Ablazing Grace! How hot the fire
That stirred a light in me
I once was mute, but now I speak
Once was bound, But now I’m free
How bitter the taste
of a wretched past
How dark the place
of empty souls and lost minds
Ablazing Grace! How strong the spirit
that woke the dead in me
Once I was absent, but now I’m here
Once was silent, but now I am Here
To Stand and fight
for freedom and Love
To Feel the Fire
of justice and peace
Ablazing Grace! How good the fire
That stirred a light in me
I once was mute, but now I sing
Once was bound, But now I’m free
