Amazing Space, beyond the clouds goes to infinity It contains all that can be found It holds all that we see T'was Space the fi-i-nal frontier That made me first conceive To be a cosmic pioneer Take off from Earth and leave To many planets, near and far I have already been; T'was Space that first showed me the stars and Space that keeps me keen The 'Verse has promised many things Existence it secures. It may be quarks or may be strings, But matter still endures. Yet when entropy does prevail, The strong force will release, An end will come to my time-scale, Metabolic process cease When we've been here ten billion years And we have lost the sun. I'll dance among the cosmic rays My pure and free atoms Amazing Space, beyond the clouds goes to infinity It contains all that can be found It holds all that we see | 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. T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear. 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; 'Tis 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 Than when we've first begun. 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. |
