Amazing Grace is the customary title of one of the best-known hymns, written (as usually sung, all but the last stanza) by John Newton. Its customary tune is New Britain. The stanza beginning "When we've been there ten thousand years", often sung as the last stanza of "Amazing Grace", is not part of the hymn as written by John Newton, but is by an unknown poet, published as early as 1829.
