Amazing grace lyrics

The song is not correctly translated, so below are corrections.
"Grace taught heart to be in awe" is translated as "Grace taught heart to fear".
"wretch" is really a normal human being.

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

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

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come.
T'was Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me 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.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

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 human like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
