Amazing Grace (history behind the song)


In 1748-49, John Newton was first-mate on the slave trade ship named Brownlow. After survivng a horrific storm and suffering from the effects of a violent fever, he threw himself totally on the mercy of God.

Later in life he became an Anglican minister and wrote the song "Amazing Grace."


The lyrics are based on 1 Chronicles 17:16,
John Newton was also a strong mentor to a man named "William Wilberforce" who spent five decades successfully working for the abolition of slavery in the British Empire.
