Roderick David Stewart (born 10 January 1945 in Highgate, London) is an English-born singer and songwriter of Scottish descent, most known for his uniquely raspy, gravelly, hoarse-sounding voice and personable singing style, as exemplified in his signature song "Maggie May". In a career now entering its fifth decade, Stewart has achieved 27 top 10 hit singles worldwide. Although the quality of his recordings has varied at times, he is widely recognized as among the best interpretive singers of recent times, and has consistently been a presence on the charts since the early 1970s.

Amazing Grace Lyrics

Rod Stewart

(words & music traditional)
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was blind but now am found
Was blind but now I see
It 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 hath brot me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
How sweet the name of jesus sounds
In a believers ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals the wounds
And drives away his fear
Must jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free
No, theres a cross for evry one
And theres a cross for me
