The Theatres Are Fountains of Vice, by John Newton (1725-1807) [Text: Isaiah 22:`12-14; Romans 12:1,2]
John Newton is best remembered to day for his great hymn, Amazing Grace. I think the Bible text that John Newton used for this hymn was Ephesians 2:8,9:
"For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourself. It is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast."
Here are two versions of this wonderful song - the second is in English and Swedish:
Amazing Grace
