God is amazing right and so is His grace!!!!! 10 million is the estimated time that amazing grace has been performed and has been featured on 11,000 albums worldwide. This is what came up in my search for this idea. According to an executive at allmusic.com, it may be the most recorded song on the planet. I believe to this too be true. anyone from Diana Ross, Andrea Bocelli, Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, Destiny Child, U2, Johnny Cash, Kenny Rogers, and John Legend just to name some of the people who have sung this song. Who that I mention above is making you scratch your head? If Destiny Child can sing this song, how important is this that God would have that sung by them?
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2: 8-9 ESV
15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. Romans 5:15 ESV
16 16 Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul. Psalm 66:16 ESV
25 He answered, “Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.” John 9:25 ESV
These are just a few of the verses I found in a search that talks about the amazing grace that the hymns we sing so often talk about. This was supposed to be a stand-alone message/teaching but am feeling in my spirit that is going to be another series from God. Tomorrow, we look at who wrote this fine piece of work and Its history. Then go from there...
Have a do it, Lord, kind of day!!!!
