Written by English Claude Newman and poet John Newton as a young man in 1772, and published in 1779, it has played an important role in the Civil War, the Civil Rights movement, 9/11 and drug and alcohol recovery. Newton wrote the words from personal experience. In 1748, while at sea, a violent storm battered his vessel off the coast of County Donegal, Ireland. Utterly frightened, he called out to God for mercy and survived the storm. Newton wrote the hymn as a heartfelt expression to God. ‘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.’   Technical specifications Tuning: 7th-century pentatonic (5 note) scale Total length: Medium 64cm, Large 102cm Material: Cherry finish ash wood 6 silver aluminium tubes UV-resistant nylon cord Series: Famous Melodies & Inspiration Origin: Hudson Valley, New York, US Included: Lifetime tuning guarantee   Explore the full range Woodstock Wind Chimes Shop all Woodstock Wind Chimes
