Very good version, the harmonies on the your voice sound nice too. Funny, just this morning a nurse sung Amazing Grace on Good Morning America, and I thought I should really learn it too, so I’m taken your version as another sign that I need to learn Amazing Grace!
OK, now this is getting wired, Andrea Bocelli is singing it right now on the Spanish language Univision network ! How many more signs do I need?

Years ago I was playing in a casino in Shreveport and a guy came up and requested Amazing Grace. I told him I didn't think it was appropriate, and he handed me a hundred dollar bill and asked "Are you sure?" Guess what the next song was? And it got a standing ovation.

Paul, first, thank you for the kind words, much appreciated ... Second, yes, you OBVIOUSLY should learn it ... I believe Boccelli ended his Milan concert with it yesterday.
Don, money talks, and I am not surprised at the standing O ...

Usually, late at night at Ernest's, I do a gospel song or two, mainly because Ernest loves 'em. My favorites include Peace In The Valley, Why Me Lord, and In The Garden. Last fall I started I Saw The Light and people started dancing toward the end, so I transitioned into Saints Go Marching In, and then into Uncloudy Day and ended with I'll Fly Away. Wish I had recorded it because it worked out pretty well.
