While the words for “Amazing Grace” were written by John Newton in 1772, the melody is a tune called “New Britain” from the early 19th century. The two were joined in 1835 by American Composer William Walker. • The lyrics are based on John Newton's experience of receiving God's grace and mercy, despite the terrible things he had done captaining a slave ship in the Atlantic Slave trade. Newton later became a slave and found himself brutally used by his master, suffering starvation, illness, and exposure. • Tune info from: • “Behind the Tunes” Vol. 1 by Dr. Peter L. Heineman • https://study.com/learn/lesson/amazin... • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazing...
