"Amazing Grace" is a #ChristianHymn written in 1772 and published in 1779 by English #Anglican clergyman, #abolitionist, and poet #JohnNewton. It is possibly the most sung and most recorded hymn in the world, and especially popular in the #UnitedStates, where it is used for both religious and secular purposes. Newton wrote the words from personal experience; he grew up without any particular religious conviction.
