“Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)”
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind, but now I see’
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbid to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
Dear heavenly Father–Thank you so much for the amazing grace You so freely offer. You are my everything. When I start to lose hope, You always give reminders that You are there and have a plan. When I start to question, You remind me that I don’t need to understand. I just need to trust. Just as this song says, You have promised good to me and I can stand on that promise. God I don’t know what is going on with my body and if the endo is gone or has returned. I don’t know the effects that fibromyalgia has on my body except that I know that it hurts. But God I know that You know everything and You are the Great Physician. I turn all of this over to You as You are my portion and my shield. I love you more than words can express. In your Precious Son’s holy name–Amen
