From the Foreword by The Rev Hon Fred Nile MLC
“I am honoured to write this Foreword for Pastor Peter Rahme’s tribute to John Newton’s amazing hymn – Amazing Grace. Peter, through his own personal faith in Jesus Christ, has developed a unique ability to convey God’s saving work of grace in people’s lives. Peter lifted up Jesus Christ as Saviour when he recorded God’s gift of grace at work in Arthur Stace’s life – known as “Mr Eternity” and as presented in the subsequent film. Peter now has achieved the same spiritual success with this new publication of the story of the world famous hymn Amazing Grace and its author John Newton. "
Excerpt
“Amazing Grace”, writes Peter Rahme, “is hummed and heard on every
continent in this world! It transcends race, religion and even record categories.
It takes in its stride all nations, regardless of colour, creed or culture.
Whether presented in churches, performed in concerts or played in clubs, this Song of Songs touches the hearts of those who listen to its tune and learn its truth; this hymn of hymns transforms the souls of those who hear its message and heed its meaning.”
