Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Amazing love, how can it be
That You my King would die for me
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
In all I do I honor You
I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You my King would die for me
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
In all I do I honor You
Word of God speak
Would you pour down like rain?
Washing my eyes to see Your Majesty
To be still and know that You're in this place?
Please let me stay and rest in Your holiness
Word of God speak
Would you pour down like rain?

It's my joy to honor You
And In all I do I honor You
Lord in all I do Let me honor You
The song "Amazing Grace" by Guy Penrod talks about the grace that we have received because of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross. The lyrics emphasize the idea that we are forgiven, accepted, and alive because He died and rose again. The first verse repeats these phrases to emphasize the point, "I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken, I'm accepted, You were condemned, I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me, Because You died and rose again."
The chorus marvels at the amazing love Jesus demonstrated by dying for us: "Amazing love, how can it be, that You my King would die for me, Amazing love, I know it's true, It's my joy to honor You." The lyrics also express a desire to stay in God's presence, "Word of God speak, Would you pour down like rain, Washing my eyes to see Your Majesty, To be still and know that You're in this place? Please let me stay and rest in Your holiness." The final line of the song, "Lord in all I do Let me honor You" is a declaration of the writer's desire to live a life that honors God.

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
’Twas 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 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
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, who called me here below
Will be forever mine
When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun
