It has been sung more times by more people in more languages, than any other song in the history of the planet. Amazing Grace is probably one of the best known hymns in the world today. The words tell of the grace of God - the gift of forgiveness and life that he gives to us freely.<br/><br/>A rendition of Amazing Grace by Judy Collins went to the top of the popular music charts in the U.S. in the 1970s. It was the first and only time a spiritual song has done this.<br/><br/>The hymn was written by John Newton, an English man who was born in 1725.(more info on Newton below) During the first 30 years of his life, Newton was certainly a miserable, unhappy, and mean person--in other words, "a wretch." As a child he was rebellious and constantly in trouble. As a young man he used profanity, drank excessively, and went through periods of violent, angry behavior. When Newton was in his early twenties, he became involved in the slave trade: living in Africa, hunting down slaves, and managing a "slave factory" (where the unfortunate captives were held for sale). Later he was the captain of a slave ship which made three voyages from Great Britain to Africa (where he loaded a cargo of slaves) and finally to America to sell them. During one voyage he cried out to God for mercy as the ship was tossed about in a storm. His ship was spared and John Newton began his walk towards Christ. He continued to be a slave trader for some years but there was a slow transformation and within the next 20 years Newton had given up this life and had become the parish priest of Olney, a village near London. Whilst here he wrote the the words to the famous hymn, Amazing Grace.

Starting his career at sea, at a young age, he became involved with the slave trade for a few years. After experiencing a religious conversion, he became a minister, hymn-writer, and later a prominent supporter of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolitionism">abolition of slavery</a>. He was the author of many hymns, including "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazing_Grace">Amazing Grace</a>" and "Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken."<br/>Early life<br/>John Newton was born in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wapping">Wapping</a>, London, in 1725, the son of John Newton Sr., a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skipper_(boating)">shipmaster</a> in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean">Mediterranean</a> service, and Elizabeth Newton (née Seatclife), a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonconformist">Nonconformist</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian">Christian</a>. His mother died of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuberculosis">tuberculosis</a> in July, 1732, about two weeks before his seventh birthday.[1] Two years later, he went to live in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aveley">Aveley</a>, the home of his father's new wife.[2] Newton spent two years at boarding school. At age eleven he went to sea with his father. Newton sailed six voyages before his father retired in 1742. Newton's father made plans for him to work at a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar">sugar</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantation">plantation</a> in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaica">Jamaica</a>. Instead, Newton signed on with a merchant ship sailing to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Sea">Mediterranean Sea</a>.<br/>In 1743, while on the way to visit some friends, Newton was captured and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impressment">pressed</a> into the naval service by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Navy">Royal Navy</a>. He became a midshipman aboard HMS Harwich. At one point, Newton attempted to desert and was punished in front of the crew of 350. Stripped to the waist, tied to the grating, he received a flogging of one dozen lashes, and was reduced to the rank of a common seaman.[3][<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources">unreliable source?</a>]<br/>Following that disgrace and humiliation, Newton initially contemplated suicide.[3][<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources">unreliable source?</a>] He recovered, both physically and mentally. Later, while Harwich was on route to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India">India</a>, he transferred to Pegasus, a slave ship bound for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Africa">West Africa</a>. The ship carried goods to Africa, and traded them for slaves to be shipped to England and other countries.<br/>Newton proved to be a continual problem for the crew of Pegasus. They left him in West Africa with Amos Clowe, a slave dealer. Clowe took Newton to the coast, and gave him to his wife Princess Peye, an African duchess. Newton was abused and mistreated along with her other slaves. It was this period that Newton later remembered as the time he was "once an infidel and libertine, a servant of slaves in West Africa."<br/>Early in 1748 he was rescued by a sea captain who had been asked by Newton's father to search for him. And he made it to freedom.[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed">citation needed</a>]<br/>In 1750 he married his childhood sweetheart in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Margaret%27s_Church,_Rochester">St. Margaret's Church, Rochester</a>[4].<br/>[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Newton&action=edit§ion=2">edit</a>]<br/>Spiritual conversion<br/>He sailed back to England in 1748 aboard the merchant ship Greyhound, which was carrying <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beeswax">beeswax</a> and dyer's wood, now referred to as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camwood">camwood</a>. During this voyage, he experienced a spiritual conversion. The ship encountered a severe storm off the coast of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donegal">Donegal</a> and almost sank. Newton awoke in the middle of the night and finally called out to God as the ship filled with water. After he called out, the cargo came out and stopped up the hole, and the ship was able to drift to safety. It was this experience which he later marked as the beginnings of his conversion to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelicalism">evangelical</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity">Christianity</a>. As the ship sailed home, Newton began to read the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible">Bible</a> and other religious literature. By the time he reached Britain, he had accepted the doctrines of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelical_Christianity">evangelical Christianity</a>. The date was March 10, 1748, an anniversary he marked for the rest of his life. From that point on, he avoided profanity, gambling, and drinking. Although he continued to work in the slave trade, he had gained a considerable amount of sympathy for the slaves. He later said that his true conversion did not happen until some time later: "I cannot consider myself to have been a believer in the full sense of the word, until a considerable time afterwards."[5]<br/>Newton returned to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverpool">Liverpool</a>, England and, partly due to the influence of his father's friend Joseph Manesty, obtained a position as first mate aboard the slave ship Brownlow, bound for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Indies">West Indies</a> via the coast of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinea">Guinea</a>. During the first leg of this voyage, while in west Africa (1748–1749), Newton acknowledged the inadequacy of his spiritual life. While he was sick with a fever, he professed his full belief in Christ and asked God to take control of his destiny. He later said that this experience was his true conversion and the turning point in his spiritual life. He claimed it was the first time he felt totally at peace with God.<br/>Still, he did not renounce the slave trade until later in his life. After his return to England in 1750, he made three further voyages as captain of the slave-trading ships Duke of Argyle (1750) and African (1752–1753 and 1753–1754). He only gave up seafaring and his active slave-trading activities in 1754, after suffering a severe stroke, but continued to invest his savings in Manesty's slaving operations."[6]<br/>[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Newton&action=edit§ion=3">edit</a>]<br/>Anglican priest<br/>In 1755 Newton became tide surveyor (a tax collector) of the port of Liverpool, again through the influence of Manesty. In his spare time, he was able to study <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_language">Greek</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew">Hebrew</a>, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syriac">Syriac</a>. He became well known as an evangelical lay minister. In 1757, he applied to be <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordination">ordained</a> as a priest in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_England">Church of England</a>, but it was more than seven years before he was eventually accepted.<br/>Such was his frustration during this period of rejection that he also applied to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methodist">Methodists</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_(religion)">Independents</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presbyterians">Presbyterians</a>, and applications were even mailed directly to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_of_Chester">Bishops of Chester</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_of_Lincoln">Lincoln</a> and the Archbishops of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archbishop_of_Canterbury">Canterbury</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archbishop_of_York">York</a>.<br/>Eventually, in 1764, he was introduced by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Haweis">Thomas Haweis</a> to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Legge,_2nd_Earl_of_Dartmouth">Lord Dartmouth</a>, who was influential in recommending Newton to the Bishop of Chester, and who suggested him for the living of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olney,_Buckinghamshire">Olney</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckinghamshire">Buckinghamshire</a>. On 29 April 1764 Newton received deacon's orders, and finally became a priest on June 17.<br/>As curate of Olney, Newton was partly sponsored by an evangelical philanthropist, the wealthy Christian merchant <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Thornton_(philanthropist)">John Thornton</a>, who supplemented his stipend of £60 a year with £200 a year "for hospitality and to help the poor". He soon became well known for his pastoral care, as much as for his beliefs, and his friendship with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Dissenters">Dissenters</a> and evangelical clergy caused him to be respected by Anglicans and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonconformism">Nonconformists</a> alike. He spent sixteen years at Olney, during which time so popular was his preaching that the church had a gallery added to accommodate the large numbers who flocked to hear him.<br/>Some five years later, in 1772, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Scott_(commentator)">Thomas Scott</a>, later to become a biblical commentator and co-founder of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_Missionary_Society">Church Missionary Society</a>, took up the curacy of the neighbouring parishes of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoke_Goldington">Stoke Goldington</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weston_Underwood,_Milton_Keynes">Weston Underwood</a>. Newton was instrumental in converting Scott from a cynical 'career priest' to a true believer, a conversion Scott related in his spiritual autobiography The Force Of Truth (1779).<br/>In 1779 Newton was invited by John Thornton to become Rector of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Mary_Woolnoth">St Mary Woolnoth</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lombard_Street,_London">Lombard Street</a>, London, where he officiated until his death. The church had been built by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_Hawksmoor">Nicholas Hawksmoor</a> in 1727 in the fashionable <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baroque_style">Baroque style</a>. Newton then became one of only two evangelical preachers in the capital, and he soon found himself gaining in popularity amongst the growing evangelical party. He was a strong supporter of evangelicalism in the Church of England, and remained a friend of Dissenters as well as Anglicans.<br/>Many young churchmen and others enquiring about their faith visited him and sought his advice, including such well-known social figures as the writer and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philanthropist">philanthropist</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannah_More">Hannah More</a>, and the young <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Member_of_Parliament">Member of Parliament</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Wilberforce">William Wilberforce</a>, who had recently undergone a crisis of conscience and religious conversion as he was contemplating leaving politics. Having sought his guidance, Newton encouraged Wilberforce to stay in Parliament and "serve God where he was".[7][8]<br/>In 1792, he was presented with the degree of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_Divinity">Doctor of Divinity</a> by the College of New Jersey (now <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princeton_University">Princeton University</a>).<br/>[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Newton&action=edit§ion=4">edit</a>]<br/>Abolitionist<br/><br/><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Newton_j.jpg"><br/></a>Newton in his later years<br/>In 1788, 34 years after he had retired from the slave trade, Newton broke a long silence on the subject with the publication of a forceful pamphlet "Thoughts Upon the Slave Trade", in which he described the horrific conditions of the slave ships during the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Passage">Middle Passage</a>, and apologized for "a confession, which ... comes too late ... It will always be a subject of humiliating reflection to me, that I was once an active instrument in a business at which my heart now shudders." A copy of the pamphlet was sent to every MP, and sold so well that it swiftly required reprinting.[9]<br/>Newton became an ally of his friend William Wilberforce, leader of the Parliamentary campaign to abolish the slave trade. He lived to see the passage of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_Trade_Act_1807">Slave Trade Act 1807</a>.<br/>Newton has been called hypocritical by some modern writers for continuing to participate in the slave trade while holding strong Christian convictions. Newton later came to believe that during the first five of his nine years as a slave trader he had not been a Christian in the full sense of the term: "I was greatly deficient in many respects ... I cannot consider myself to have been a believer in the full sense of the word, until a considerable time later."[10] Although this "true conversion" to Christianity also had no immediate impact on his views on slavery, he eventually came to revise them.<br/>[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Newton&action=edit§ion=5">edit</a>]<br/>Writer and hymnist<br/><br/><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Olney_vicarage.jpg"><br/></a>The vicarage in Olney where Newton wrote the hymn that would become "Amazing Grace".<br/>In 1767 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Cowper">William Cowper</a>, the poet, moved to Olney. He worshipped in the church, and collaborated with Newton on a volume of hymns, which was eventually published as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olney_Hymns">Olney Hymns</a> in 1779. This work had a great influence on English hymnology. The volume included Newton's well-known hymns "Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken", "How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds!", "Let Us Love, and Sing, and Wonder", "Come, My Soul, Thy Suit Prepare", "Approach, My Soul, the Mercy-seat", and "Faith's Review and Expectation", which has come to be known by its opening phrase, "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazing_Grace">Amazing Grace</a>".<br/>Many of Newton's (as well as Cowper's) hymns are preserved in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp">Sacred Harp</a>. He also contributed to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheap_Repository_Tracts">Cheap Repository Tracts</a>.<br/>[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Newton&action=edit§ion=6">edit</a>]<br/>Commemoration<br/><br/><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Grave_stone_of_John_Newton.JPG"><br/></a>The gravestone of John Newton in Olney with the epitaph he penned.<br/> ■ The town of Newton, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_Leone">Sierra Leone</a> is named after John Newton.
