This chime is tuned to the opening notes of Amazing Grace, one of America's best-loved hymns. The lyrics were written by Englishman John Newton in the late 18th century, and the song has played an important role in drug and alcohol recovery, the Civil War, the Civil Rights Movement and 9/11. Newton's message of hope and redemption from over 200 years ago resonates with the same power today. May the deep tones of this impressive chime soothe you in times of trouble and delight you in times of joy.
