I Made An Amazing Grace Compilation

As with so many favorite hymns from my youth, I discovered Amazing Grace at a black church we attended in Canada when I moved up there from Brazil at age twelve. The congregation was mostly Canadian and Caribbean blacks, and the pastors were Texans, the the preachers did the sing-songy rambunctious Southern thing while the congregation followed along a little less extravagantly.

In a moment of late-night sentimentalism, I put this together yesterday. It's compiled from a bunch of creative commons videos other people uploaded to YouTube. And it's got a couple of beautiful moments, I think. God is good.
