Amazing Grace

Songwriter: Lee Hodridge

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
We have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far
And Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Then when we've first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

A Grazing Mace

verses 1-5 by Skald-Brandr Toralfsson
verse 6 is the original anonymous creation
verse 7 from the HOPSFA Hymnal 3rd Edition

A grazing mace, how sweet the sound,
that felled my foe for me
I bashed his head, he struck the ground,
and thus came victory

My mace has taught my foes to fear,
that mace my fear relieved
How precious did my mace appear,
when I my mace received

Through many tourneys wars and fairs,
I have already come
My mace has brought me safe thus far,
my mace will bring me home

The King has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures
I will his shield and weapon be,
when he gives me my spurs

And when my mace my foeman nails,
that mortal strife shall cease
And we'll possess within our pale,
a life of joy and peace

A grazing mace, how sweet the sound
that flattened a wretch like thee!
Whose head is flat, that once was round;
done in by my mace....and me!

A grazing mace, how sweet the sound
that smites a foe like thee
You're left there lying on the ground,
you've left the field to me!

by Jenna of Southwind

A Grazing Mace, how sweet the blow
That killed a wretch like me.
I once was up, but now I’m down.
A Grazing Mace killed me.

My knight has promised help for me
He’ll save my ass for sure.
He will my shieldwall anchor be
As long as life endure.

That mace has taught my heart to fear
No shield my fear relieves
How swiftly did that Mace appear
The hour it first killed me.

Through many fighters, knights and earls
I had already come.
My knight had kept me safe thus far
But Mace did send me home.

That mace has slain ten thousand foes
All sweating in the sun.
I’d no more grace to duck that mace
I was ten thousand one.
