Amazing Grace was written by a former slave trader
John Newton. Once sailing a ship full of slaves from
Africa his ship was hit by a fierce storm!
Newton feared for his life and got down on his
knees and begged the good Lord to spare his
life. He promised the Lord that if he would only
spare his life he would change his ways and
stop trading slaves. The storm calmed down
and Newton wrote the song "Amazing Grace"
full of sorrow and love and hope that he
would be forgiving of his sins.
