Since Christianity was first established, hymns have been an integral part of the worship process. Most Christians can name a few favorite songs from the wide selection created over the course of its proud history. When the organs start, the voices soar and the choir begins, it can be an indescribable feeling for worshipers, and is a perfect way to celebrate he love of God. Although not everyone has an ear for music, or a voice for it, singing hymns doesn't discriminate against vocal talents, and invites everyone to participate and share their praise.

Throughout her life, Janet Quilloy has been enamored with singing, and enjoys using her vocal talents not only to express herself, but importantly, show her devotion to the Lord. “Amazing Grace” remains one of the classic hymns for many Christians as well as her, who see it as the perfect example of a timeless classic. This song dates all the way back to 1779, and has never lost any of its appeal. Devote Christian John Newton was the author of the song's fine lyrics, who at that point in his life had become a clergyman inspired by the beauty of Christian hymns.

As a young man, Newton was forced into service in the United Kingdom’s Royal Navy. After serving his time, he became involved in slave trade across the Atlantic. In 1748, his ship was struck by such rough weather off the coast of Ireland that he called to God to have mercy upon him. He then converted to Christianity, although he continued to be a slave trader for almost a decade (1754 or 1755). Having finally stopped buying and selling human beings, he began to study Christian theology. 

In England, it wasn't long before the hymn sank into obscurity. It had crossed the Atlantic, however, and it became a classic in the United States. It used various different tunes – as much as 20 – but finally, in 1835, it was linked with a tune titled “New Britain”, and this was the one that had staying power. For Janet Quilloy Amazing Grace remains one of the most enduring hymns, and one she always enjoys singing. Find out more about her life and career here at Janet B.
