I was so scared of everything you put in front of me
I've been marching to every part of me
Just to see, see
Why you need me to be
The boy you need me to be

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saves a wretch like me
I once was lost
And now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

I just wanna see

I'm the type of person who lets fear drive
I'm the type of guy that lets it drive
Cause I'm addicted, I'm needy
I'm lost without you
I need you
I need you

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saves a wretch like me
I once was lost
But now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

Amazing grace (amazing grace)
How sweet the sound (how sweet)
That saves a wretch like me (that saved a wretch like me)
I once was lost
But now I'm found (you know I'm found)
Was blind but now I see

Amazing grace (you're amazing)
How sweet the sound (you're amazing)
That saves a wretch like me
I once was lost (it feels so bad when you're lost and alone)
But now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

    General Comment:Incredible. Heartfelt. Emotional. Beautiful. Amazing. Not enough good things can be said about this song. It pulls at your very heartstrings and sucks you in. Its incredibly simple yet beautiful. My favorite on Southern Weather and perhaps one of the most beauftiful renderations of Amazing Grace ever done. I heard that Aaron only recorded this song once, which makes an epic song incredible. The feeling of surrender and longing for god felt in this song is insane. Shows how much god loves us and how much Aaron loves god.

    My Interpretation:i think this song is deeper than most people realize. I think he is using the worship to God as a metaphor for a relationship he has had

    General Comment:These boys are so amazing.

    But, actually, line two is
    "I've been archin' every part of me."
    Not
    "I've been marching to every part of me."

    According to the lyric book that comes with the album.
