Amazing Grace History/"Amazing Grace" By Wintley Phipps

NOTE TO ALL VIEWERS: many of you have missunderstood what he said. He did NOT say an african american wrote the words to amazing grace. He never argued that John Newton was not an englishmen, so stop pointing it out! He just said that John Newton was a slave trader and he was. Most of you are so concentrated on black and white, you are missing the point of the whole video!! He is trying to send out a message that God intended for all of us to be united. Weather you agree with the details or not, the message he is trying to send is a good one. So lighten up and take the hint!!When I posted this video, I had absolutely no idea how popular it would become.Anyone who thinks my intention is to "misinform" or to show any disregard to any race or culture obviously knows nothing about me. This is a great video, and I love wintley phipps and so I decided to share. I did not expect it to be so huge!!Of course we all agree that John Newton was in fact a slave trader. Thats the whole point. GRACE. That God can change the hardest of hearts within time if they'll listen. All the other stuff, is just stuff.As far as not posting most of the ones that try to "correct" his views, it was simply to not cause a riot, the few times I have posted negative comments it caused a big debate between that person and my subscribers and especially considering this video has become so popular and so many people watch it, I wanted to avoid a big, long debate. That's it. So please dont be unkind to me and make allegations about my intentions to my subscribers when you are 100% percent wrong about me. I am anything but racist and I dont see how me posting this video would make me a racist, me posting this video means that i'm for unity between races. I have gotten into big long arguements with people multiple times because they made a racist remark. I am the opposite of racist. So please stop saying that because it's just not true and it hurts my feelings.

This song was sung at my infant son's funeral just over 4 years ago! The only comfort I have now is knowing Devion is in complete peace with our lord Jesus Christ. This is one of the better versions I have heard. God Bless!!

Awesome SONG!!! Hoover 4000, thank you for sharing this video. It is a shame that you had to write a long disclaimer in defense of your intentions. I cannot understand how anyone could consider any malicious or racist intent on your part but some folks just have too much time on thier hands. Love it...

He was quite "religion-less" before he met the Lord, I believe.

boy1350 (September 27, 2008 at 9:27 pm)

most likely he was no religion before, as many of the people in that time period were not. Might have been baptized as an infant in a church, but that does not necessarily make you part of that religion, or mean that you follow it.
