Amazing Grace—arr. Scott Watson. One of the
most enduring and beloved songs known the
world over, Amazing Grace means many things
to many people. The tune, a pentatonic folk
song known as New Britain among other names,
evolved separately from the famous 18th-century
hymn text by John Newton with which it eventually
became associated. For some, hearing or singing
the song gives strength during trials; for others, it
is a promise of hope and a balm of comfort at a
funeral; for others still, it is a reminder of their frail
humanity, yet with the possibility of forgiveness
and mercy. This heartfelt setting – employing fresh
contemporary harmonies, a rapturous modulation,
and reflective closing moments -casts new light on
the centuries-old melody. A perfect lyrical ballad
for your intermediate band.
