IckyNaga68833, If he had a “ spiritual awakening “ in 1748 but didn’t leave the slave trade until 2754 I would suggest his convictions weren’t that deep.

It is an incredible hymn and has been recorded by so many gifted singers. My favorite version is the one sung by Judy Collins - what an amazing voice. Newton says “what amazing grace that could save such a wretch as I” Even a slave trader can find salvation from God. There is hope for all of us.
