Amazing Grace - The Petersens (LIVE)

"Amazing Grace" is my favorite new song we are doing. Just singing the words is a beautiful reminder each and every show of the grace we have received and the promise we have to look forward to.
Thank you to everyone who sent in recordings of the final verse!!! We are so excited to feature hundreds of you on the album version of this song, I can't listen to it without tearing up. Don't forget to listen to the Dolby Atmos mixes on Apple Music, Amazon Music, or Tidal if you have the audio set up. It truly is the ultimate experience and you will feel like you are in the recording studio right there with us :)

►LYRICS - Amazing Grace
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
'Twas grace that brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
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 first begun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun

Thank you, Liz. Everything in tip-top shape again.👍

Thanks Liz. ...and I say It's all right!! 😉👍

[@Sooch694]

Thanks Liz and I hope you have a great weekend

[@carltwidle9046]

Absolutely beautiful. God saves people. I had an alcohol issue for years. I cried out to the good lord for help. I have never had a drop of alcohol since. Praise the lord.

[@richardjoy2233]

Grown man standing reduced to tears here on a Sunday morning. No reason other than the beauty of this.

[@JohnSmith-hk8hx]

God bless man..

[@markomullins1676]

Amen anf amen

[@phoenixkazmerik481]

I think if all Christians were to sing one song before the Lord to represent all of our love for him, it should be Amazing Grace. 🙏✝️👏

[@micheilakarringten7804]

Agreed! I've always loved this song, but now it has even more meaning being holy spirit filled! 🙏🌹🕆

[@corylabrie5229]

Amen, brothah!

[@miguelz8721]

Amen !!!

[@johnayelwin9760]

Right.

[@BGCflyer]

Amen brother!

[@FuriousFred-pc2er]

May GOD bless you today, tomorrow and ever more. Please keep singing.

[@andyclark3530]

The only bad part of this was that it ended. Loved every second of it.

[@TexasRed59]

But the good part is that you can play it over and over again!!

[@VfB4live]

Agree

[@timfoster7789]

And I do, thanks.

[@gianfrancoperticone7373]

Yes, amen.

[@jackhaskins9779]

That is exactly what I thought about their live show I attended last week.

[@Pedro-hv3go]

Imagine the day where everything ends, the day after all wars, all suffering, all pain... and those who were persecuted on Earth, those who stayed off sin, those who died for Christ name, stop and praise Him in Heaven, in His almightyt throne! This song would be the perfect one to sing to our king! Maranatha O come back Jesus, we need you!

[@95path]

This is beautiful. You are my new heros! Amazing Grace, Tears of joy streaming out of my eyes just listening and singing along with such beautiful music.

[@chrissherrill49]

"T'was grace than taught my heart to fear and grace my fear relieved". IMO one of the most powerful statements made by any song.

[@davidduffy9806]

America, the world needs more Petersens.

[@doobaps]

The slide guitar intro sounds like an angel singing... it's sooooo nicely in tune with open strings :)

[@malmalamie2732]

I feel like I just peeped through the pearly gates, and there was this heavenly sound. Truly beautiful 👏👍🎶

[@David-kt4tp]

This is the best version of “Amazing Grace” that I’ve ever heard!

[@jimthompson9992]

The country...OUR country....needs this so much right now. Thank you Petersen's. Thank you!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@edhastie6074]

Ellen could sing the menu of the local diner and I would listen in amazement

[@svetlanaundina123]

Спасибо вам за музыку,братья и сёстры!)🙏🙏🙏

[@antidepressant11]

Mum on double bass. That's the understated standout in this family.

[@faustovignale5861]

I have a dream: the video of Amazing Grace by the Petersens, projected on a mega screen at the opening ceremony of the next World Youth Day, to be held in Lisbon Portugal in August 2023.

[@peterwelling2435]

"When we've been there 10,000 years..." and this old man got teary eyed. I just found The Petersens a day or so ago. Amazing.

[@korkkdoe5626]

"Just found The Petersens". Now fall head first down the rabbit hole! They are just THAT AMAZING!

[@michaelbayer5094]

I just found them on YT too. Using the YT algorithm, the Lord does work in mysterious ways, LOL. Although I've heard this hymn a million times, I was struck by the next lines in that stanza: We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we first begun I hope you find joy and peace in God's everlasting eternal love.

[@worksmartincnet]

Welcome

[@CaesarInVa]

Same here. Heard this song and when the violin kicked in, tears welled up. Such wonderfully angelic harmonies. These girls are singing with their hearts and souls, not just their voices.

[@AbnetTefera-hu2ek]

Hi

[@weldercanesin3995]

Amamos muito vocês! Um grande carinho do Brasil!!!

[@josefrancisconettodecampos8664]

Um abraço desde Camaquã Rio Grande do Sul Brazil! Muitp linda a música!

[@anthonyleonguerrero8994]

Yes I’m certainly impressed! I loved her solos.. she’s greater than I could have expected. You two are super talented and surely we all enjoyed! Thanks for sharing!❤

[@mikefowler2417]

That guitar intro is worth the price of admission. OMG.

[@DavidFinney-jn4xj]

I enjoy listening to this sort of singing. Thank you?

[@michaelsmith2733]

I loved how Karen kept her head bowed in reverence for so long, I am with you dear sister in Christ. Always hold Him up first.

[@thomasmcdow4215]

What an Amazing voice! One of my all time favorite songs! All of you made such a great rendition! Thank you!

[@earlgreystoke3324]

"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." [Ephesians 2:8-9]

[@karlsmith8872]

When these ladies smile the whole world looks brighter!

[@TheGetFreshFlow]

Man that dobro gives me the feels.

[@korkkdoe5626]

That's what Emmett does! They ALL are fantastic!

[@johncline7518]

Probably the best known song of salvation and grace. Written by a former slave ship captain and drunkard turned gospel preacher. It reminds me of the man that I was before Jesus Christ came into my life and saved me. I can’t tell you how happy and excited I am that the Petersens have performed this classic of God’s love and grace!

[@dharryg]

The songwriter’s background story says it all! Amen!

[@billyennis7355]

amen

[@AbnetTefera-hu2ek]

Hi

[@bobbisen]

I'm an absolute non believer. But your music is absolutely stunning. All the love to you guys '

[@Michael-nh8ht]

A truly uplifting performance ! Thank you & our Lord, our God, His Son Jesus & the Holy Spirit, Amen Hallelujah ❤🙏✝

[@jerrybrady9103]

Love it! This hymm has special meaning for me also. Back in 1964 when I was in elementary school 4th grade, every morning before class our teacher had us recite the Pledge of Allegiance and then we sang Amazing Grace.

[@viviannevangestel350]

Amazing musi, amazing songs. Thank you.

[@wha64]

The greatest song ever by the best band. What could be better. Amen.

[@bill7618]

This ole humble country boys opinion . That is the most beautiful song that has ever been written .

[@gianfrancoperticone7373]

We thanks all you. Greetings from Italy. Good night from Italy. Good morning for the other side of the ocean. Ciao.

[@johnlanning7845]

It's a excellent rendition of Amazing Grace. That was July 29th which was my wife's 61st birthday and sadly enough is also the day she passed away. So it was fitting to hear this song on that day because now she has gone on to be with the Lord. And I want to thank all y'all for singing this song on that day.

[@1999mikedunn]

The Petersens are lifting the spirits of this nation.........stay pure.......love the dresses and songs.

[@patrickmoralesramon9577]

How momma is holding in her tears I have no idea. I'd be a waterfall watching my kids perform such beautiful music

[@manchild3479]

yes,what a family.

[@EnnoHaendschke]

You really did that one year ago? Wow, that was when I brought my father to the sea. I did not dare to sing because I knew my voice would fail. So I whistle this song which was our common favourite.

[@jnlaf]

This is one of those songs, that no matter where you are in life it's raises you up...thank you,,

[@lisaheubach9159]

They have such beautiful harmony, God bless this family

[@waltbrown8899]

Lovely! Luv Your Music!! Luv Your Family!! ... Petersens Rock!! 🙂

Wow! 681,000 Subs now. Awesome! Congratulations!

[@janok659]

Emmett doesn't often show his feelings,but his dobro speaks for him.Ellen's beautiful performance not only for her excellent voice,but she knows what she's singing about.You're a team and Karen,Katie,Julianne and Matt also perfect!

[@LukeWhite_PE]

I’m currently away on a mission trip, in Paraguay, “working on a building, working on a building, working on a building for my Lord, for my Lord” and ministering to school kids (in the public schools). I’m tired, weak, and worn, so being able to hear you do this beautiful hymn is fuel for my soul. Thank you for continually being a blessing to me!

[@virgilcollins4925]

May God be with you be safe and don't forget you're doing his work I will be praying for you

[@LukeWhite_PE]

@@virgilcollins4925 thank you for your prayers!

[@richardekman4749]

My wife and I just adore the way that using this song Ellen it is absolutely beautiful. I have heard numerous people sing this song and well I guess I song along with people that’s in church and stuff that might sing it but you are 10 out of 10 absolutely beautiful you can take it from this 78 year old Farm boy from Canada we love you there is an a day go by that we don’t listen to the PETERSON‘s May the Lord bless you and keep you may his face shine upon you and bring you his peace

[@david_k_watson]

I had mixed emotions listening to this song. My grandmother, who went to be with the Lord a few months ago, would play this on the piano every time I went to visit her. I know she is in a better place but I miss her every day.

[@timfoster7789]

David thank you, and I'm sure she is in a much better place, and you will join her there one day.

[@Roberto-pd8vn]

Surely your grandmother is playing this song in a better place, David.

[@gianfrancoperticone7373]

Your family is very blessed by Him and I think all your skills and all your smile and the love you share to the rest of world is a gift. Thanks a lot Petersen family from an Italian catholic friend. Ciao. Gianfranco 🇮🇹♥️.

[@ronhughes1220]

Oh my! Ellen, you took us before the throne of grace to worship at his feet. This was just a small taste of eternity. All of your voices are superb, of course, but knowing that you believe what you are singing makes it all the better. Thank you.

Well said Ron, well said.

[@1new-man]

Absolutely

[@pcpushparaj76]

Wonderful Amazing. God bless you all

[@gjs321]

As always, the Petersen's are a warm light in an increasingly dark world. Lovely intro by Emmett and the conviction in Ellen's soaring vocals made this very special.

[@georgezink8256]

Just so wonderful thank y’all

[@sartainja]

In the United States, "Amazing Grace" became a popular song used by Baptist and Methodist preachers as part of their evangelizing, especially in the American South, during the Second Great Awakening of the early 19th century. It has been associated with more than 20 melodies. In 1835, American composer William Walker set it to the tune known as "New Britain" in a shape note format; this is the version most frequently sung today.

[@sergdenisov9138]

Charming and gorgeous. Music in a collective is difficult. Especially for so many years. Strength and success to you

We enjoyed Mother in the background, how proud she is. What a gift from God to raise great children, who all play and sing, Mum and Dad aswell. You'all are played in our home constantly, you keep our vibration high and our energy frequencies going. We love you all for the gift you share. we send you music on your you tube to everyone we know, here in Australia

[@biktoppe3hob538]

I am surprised! I just found, at the top of the search results, “Amazing Grace” uploaded within 17 hours by the Petersens, one of my favorite bands on youtube. It was just after I’d finished watching the tv program about “Amazing Grace” featuring how popular and beloved it is in the US, from African Americans in New Orleans to Cherokees in Oklahoma. Thank you, Petersens❤

[@timfoster7789]

Emmett; your lead in to this song is absolutely spot on, got my attention and kept it in preparation for what was coming. Ellen; I know this song and it's meaning, my compliment is, you do it justice. Thank you for sharing your time, talents and gifts, what a wonderful blessing to see and hear you perform this song.

[@user-gi3jw3ts7j]

Well done and well sang. Yes Amazing grace is a wounderfull song. The group sang it realy nice and I love the hole group. Keep going and waiting to hear more from the group and may GOD bless you all. 🙏🙏👏👏😇😇 S. Africa.

[@micheilakarringten7804]

I've always love this song so much. It's even more meaningful now that I've been holy spirit filled. Plus being from VA, Kentucky, NC this style music brings me back home to my roots. Emmett does a superb job on the dobro. LOVE IT!!! Beautiful! Thank you. 🙏

I'm not going to cry, I'm not going to cry, I'm not going to cry........aw shoot! Thanks always, Petersens!!!

[@christophor108]

The only thing we have left in music are the old songs. Today's music and today's songs are trivial. Without any content. Man today has lost himself. You sing and play very well. God's blessing.

[@adys6115]

Always when I hear this song I am moved to shed a tear, this time was no different, it was beautiful, thank-you.
