Amazing Grace

When David Bellamy wrote “Old Hippie,” he had no idea that he was serving as a spokesperson for part of the “thirtysomething” generation at that time. That song was followed by two more and led to the spiritual conversion of the old Hippie as he entered the final quarter.

Many in the baby-boomer generation became disillusioned about life and tried to escape in drugs or alcohol. Some, fortunately, found the One who can make sense of it all. The third song in their trilogy tells of the music that can save the soul.

Here’s one song that can:

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

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

If you haven’t found peace, try God’s Word.

Give it some thought.
