Amazing Grace Auld Lang Syne - English Version

Amazing Grace, How Sweet the sound. That saved a wretch Should old acquaintance be forgot,
like me. I once was lost, but now am found. T'was blind but and never brought to mind?
now I see. T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear. And Should old acquaintance be forgot,
Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear and old lang syne?
The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and
snares. We have already come. T'was grace that brought us For auld lang syne, my dear,
safe thus far. And grace will lead us home, And grace will for auld lang syne,
lead us home. Amazing grace, How Sweet the sound we’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am for auld lang syne.

and surely I’ll buy mine!
Danny Boy And we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side. We two have run about the slopes,
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling, and picked the daisies fine;
It's you, it's you must go and I must bide. But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, since auld lang syne.
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow, We two have paddled in the stream,
Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so! from morning sun till dine†;
But seas between us broad have roared
But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, since auld lang syne.
If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
You'll come and find the place where I am lying, And there’s a hand my trusty friend!
And kneel and say an Ave there for me. And give us a hand o’ thine!
And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, for auld lang syne.
For you will bend and tell me that you love me,
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me!
