Grace period: Tony D’Souza sings from a well-known hymn sheet
‘If there is a Gift, there must be a Giver.’

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
Grace came to me (as it must come to any of us) as a complete surprise. It came as something totally unexpected – out of the blue – an experience so remarkable I can remember it clearly all these years later as though it happened yesterday. It came like a thief in the night – without warning and, of course, unearned.
