This video provides the lyrics to the famous hymnal, "Amazing Grace," translated into the Cherokee language. I wanted to post a version in which the lyrics with the meaning of the words were available. I had also chosen audio taken from the "Cherokee National Holiday - Gospel Music CD" because of its clarity in pronunciation. I had received a copy of the lyrics along with translation of the lyrics from the book "Cherokee Hymns History." As always, I think it is important to understand the translation as well as hearing the words. Mp3's can be downloaded for free from www.cherokee.org. Enjoy
