Amazing Grace, I don't care who sings it, the song moves me every time I hear it. The lyrics dont even have to be there, it's a very moving song played on a bugle, bagpipes, even on harmonica. It's particularly poignant when you learn that its author, John Newton, was the captain of a slave ship... and the hymn is autobiographical.
