I heard this song on the radio, I was driving my car at the time, a complete hedonist, and was forced to stop because I began weeping and didn't know why. Every time I heard it I began crying and a little while later I heard about Jesus Christ and His finished work which caused me to call on His Name for salvation. 33 years later, I still get emotional hearing this song. God bless you, Judy Collins.

I too when I first heard that song tears weld in my eyes as it still does the day so many decades later. And nobody can replicate the version that Judy Collins did. What song itself has an amazing history that everybody should look up and read the origins of it. God bless you all

Yes that is true

I went to school with Judy Collins from fourth grade till we graduated from high school. She was a concert pianist, but then she started doing folk music. I remember we had a talent show and she sang a folk song. I don’t remember what, but it was such a surprise. Have followed her amazing career and enjoyed all of her music. I remember one morning in fourth grade she came running in late to school and said she had to stay home with her brothers and sisters because her mom and had a new baby. And they named him Denver.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful story to us😊

Another example of how God reached down to our level to show His love.

Ha! I was driving through Boston with friends when Judy was there for this concert. We'd stopped at a red light, and who did we see walking near us on the sidewalk but HER. We rolled down our windows and shouted in unison, "We love you Judy!" She stopped, smiled, and yelled back, "And I love you too!"

Nobody can sing this song better than Judy Collins

Judy was born to sing this song. God bless her and keep her always. 🙏✝️

I meet Judy back in 1988 at Six Flags Great Adventure. The audience was so small she commented on how intimate it was. After her performance, we hung out back stage and got to meet and greet those beautiful blue eyes. She was so gracious and welcoming. Will never for get it as long as I live. And definitely ask that her song be played when I pass on 👍🏻🙏🏻

We played this at my brother's funeral.

I love the way she encourages everyone to sing so organically, from the heart! A gorgeous chorus!

Her version touches souls regardless of belief

The most beautiful piece of music ever created.

All I know is this. As a woman of age lets say over 50, who spent most of my life in sin, running from God at every turn, He finally caught me. No, actually, I now know I wasn't running away, I was running towards. I just kept tripping up along the way. You can have your scientific research and philosophical mindset and I guess we will find out who really is right on the other side of eternity. All I know is this: Amazing Grace, sweet grace , God's grace saved a wretch like me . How sweet is the sound. No man, no debate, no scientific attitudes can take that away from me. All I know when my time comes to leave this world at death or return of Jesus Christ I will go out singing and in peace. As they say " there are no athiests in foxholes. Facing death soldiers cry out for God and their moms.

I had a vynlel album from her. How did I buy it for .50 cents? Joe Biden would not allow it. Of all the songs on it, this was the best. Amazing grace.

I saw her sing this in Toronto in 2005,I cried my eyes out.I can barely hold back right now.

Bless you so much Judy...... Anytime I hear Amazing Grace I can`t help but totally break down in tears. I`m going to turn 54 on March 2024 and I hope even though early stages of Dementia and I just came across Judy singing this beautiful song I hope that I never forget her beautiful voice.

I had the good fortune to be on leave and to see and hear Judy singing in the Ulster Hall Belfast.One of the Greatest female voices I have ever heard.

She has a voice like an angel. For the people that dislikes, even the devil will not make room in hell for you.

Many could "punch" it out, but very few could hold a pure sustained note as well. At least not without embellishing it somehow to show off their range.

Thank you God for always being there to catch me when I fell, picked me up, held me, and helped me stand up again. Forgave my sins and showed me you are the greatest love of all...

there is only one reason judy collins was put here. to sing this song like an angel from heaven. no human can ever match her. judy collins is amazing grace

This song means a lot to me as it reminds me of the day I got saved, I was a wretch and I sort after God and He knew and it was a magical moment back in 1988, 28th Dec, I would probably be in the gutter somewhere if I hadn't paid heed. Jeremiah 29;13,14 "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart, I will be found by you," declares the Lord.

Judy Collins is like an angel in a human body! 👼 She has a wonderful voice!

Dear Judy: I sold your "Whales & Nightingales" album when I was 15. I didn't know you. I just saw your photo and I thought that it would be good. And I didn't mistake. I have the vinyl yet. Love from Argentina.

this is one of my favorite songs,and she really has amazing voice too,woow..amazing grace.

This song was written by a British ex-slaver who finally realised what is wrong with enslaving people.

НАЙКРАЩА МОЛИТВА І ПОДЯКА ГОСПОДУ!!!❤

That big, beautiful voice just pours out of her like God intended it to! Judy is a treasure for us all to love and admire.

I close my eyes and I hear an angel..Thank you Thank you Thank you Judy. Love your honest beautiful voice. What an amazing era of music!

How absolutely AWESOME! That's when you can REALLY sing when you can sing like that! And I can remember this first time round in the 70's. I'd like to see the likes of ariana grande, or smiley cyrus or britney spears sing like that, that'll be the day! No fancy "autotune" stuff back then, they didn't need it. And she did it without music too, how absolutely AWESOME!

ENORMISSIME...
