Dan , I'm 70 yrs old, a very faithful Christian, I've heard this song sung a 101 ways but young man you made me hold my breath..a most beautiful and unusual rendition I've ever heard..Ill keep listening to it..waiting for your next miracle ❤😂😊
I am 67 yrs old and did not expect to be moved like I was. I agree with others you have a gift from God. I pray you will share some more songs that praise God. Thank you.
I'm a 65 year old pastor, who has served in the ministry for 43 years. This rendition of Amazing Grace has me in tears. Thank you Lord, for your Amazing Grace!
This isnt just a metal singer....this is an artist, an all around singer with a fantastic range, vibrato control, and a beautiful tone. Bravo sir. *standing ovation*
Diagnosed with colon cancer and told I'd be dead by December. Hallelujah, I'm still here! THIS is the version that will be played at my funeral. Wow. Just wOw! Heaven heard this version and paused... Thank you!
I lost my daughter to fentanyl in 2019 and I swore I'd never listen to this song again. I also couldn't cry over it. You've given me the gift of being able to grieve properly and cry it out. Thank you young man!😢🎉
Dear Jane, greetings from France. Please allow us all to hug you. We share your pain and wish we could ease it a bit. You are not alone. Reach out. And remember G.od is with you, in you, and all around you.
SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER 💔💔 If Dan's performance of this song helps you grieve, then do " cry it out" 🙏 in prayer! I think that's how God will heal your broken heart!! May God bless continue to bless you 💖 from Georgia with love ❤️
Sadly, I lost my husband Christmas Day 2024. Your version represents him so perfectly big, bold, and powerful ❤ Your rendition will be his entrance song marking his final journey from this life 💔 I can't thank you enough for giving us such a truly powerful rendition that clearly comes from deep within your soul ❤️
At 77 years old, I resemble that remark. lol I am of the Elvis and Beatles generation. We can actually hear Dan’s awesome voice. Much of the heavy metal is overpowered by the guitars. Dan’s simple black background makes it possible to see the emotion he pours into every song. And the glimpses of his personality in the outros show what a kind, caring and funny guy he is.
Honey, I'm a 67 year old lady from Texas, and I must tell you, I scrolled past this video many times. Today, Jan 20, 2024, the Lord urged me to stop and listen. As always, He gave me something wonderful. You really did a fabulous rendition of a most beautiful gospel song. Take my word for it, you glorified Him in a wonderful display of the voice he blessed you with. I'm saving this to my playlist. Please do some more gospel!
Remember to subscribe and pass along the word to your friends about this beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace. Dan has many other beautiful songs on his channel.
I am a Newfoundlander with family in Texas. I worry for them everyday. For what has happened to my Nephew and his lovley wife. They left her to bleed out in the parking lot until she almost died. God's word of Abbott!
It's actually a Hymn written 100 years before Gospel music would ever become a thing. And the man who wrote it wasn't a nice man, he was a slaver, deserter, foul mouthed well beyond sailor's standards (and that is saying something), and incited mutiny against his captains.
I had never heard of this man before this song. Talk about a true bring you to church and bring tears to your eyes for a few rendition song. Love him and his work!
Most metal singers are excellent singers. They have stellar vocal control...they have to to sing metal lyrics. Metal vocalist are seriously underrated.
I had my 73 yr. old Baptist mom listen today. When I said it was a heavy metal singer performing amazing grace she wasn't so sure. After listening, she was misty eyed and said this is how the song should be sung. With passion and power. ❤
I did the same thing to my mom when she was 75. She absolutely loved it! If she would have allowed us to have a service for her a couple months ago, Dan’s version would have been played. She heard it 6 months before we lost her
Im a 62 yr old Scot and have always felt this song was meant to be belted out, your version is how this should be sung. I bet yours rattled the doors of heaven, absolutely brilliant
I must confess that I have never been that much of a fan of the 'belting out' style of vocals. My taste runs more to Frank Sinatra (and the King's Singers 🙂). The best way to hear AG is with the pipes. AG and Scotland the Brave are far and away the favorite songs played by massed bands at Highland Games in the US.
@@mescko the tune for AG sounds good on the pipes but if your looking for what sounds best played by massed pipes look no further than Highland Cathedral, there are thousand of heartstoppingly beautiful bagpipe tunes but I wouldn't class Scotland the brave as one but each to their own
I just turned 58 and have loved this song for most of my life. I’ve always shed tears when I hear this song. Today however after I shed a little for a very beautiful rendition of this old classic, most of the tears I shed were from reading these comments. God bless this young man and may He bless all of you who have or will watch this video.
Friday, February 2. have had one of those days where I am reminded of friendship that was about children who have grown and grown up. About loss, about joys about things I had forgotten, which magically just came to life today. just before midnight in (Denmark . as if grace led me the way, for what I had to experience and relive ... and don't know yet if your version of amazing grace is the end of this blessing of understanding for pure love that this day has given. but what a fantastic ending. and thank you for being part of that story now.. sending love back because you deserve it.😊❤
If you can see the grace you can project it. God.will always work through you and yours. Be strong, so that they may be strong thru you. Help it does not matter how just do it.
Dan, I’m a 69 almost 70 year old woman with cancer. I’ve always loved this song my whole entire life but your cover is far and above the most moving and iconic I’ve ever heard. I have requested this video played at my funeral. Bless you always and keep sharing your beautiful gift. ❤
Im going to be 61 in May, I have stage 4 bone cancer. I listened to your beautiful voice sing that song, It was absolutely amazing. May GOD BLESS you as you continue to sing for Jesus Christ, our savior!!
I was absolutely blown away with this version, the best I have ever heard. What an amazing tone you have to your voice. Thankyou for your gift and inspiration
This was the hymn sung at my husbands funeral 35 years ago. I'm still mourning him. My soul mate waiting to be reunited with him one day. Praise the Lord ❤
Within the first minute I swear I could feel my father. Crying tears of joy by 2 minutes. Dan this is such a beautiful gift you have given me. GOD BLESS YOU.
My dad was in choir this whole life and even sang for the Dallas symphony! Sadly he passed a few years ago in an accident way too soon. I'm 29 now. I know exactly what you mean when you say you feel your father! God bless you
I am a 73 year old female in bad health and I am a Christian. I am just waiting for Jesus to take me home.. I needed to hear this song today.. This brought tears down my face and it reminded me who I am in Christ.
I'm 66, a churchgoer all my whole life, plus listen to hymns frequently on UA-cam and radio, and no one person on this earth has ever sung this more perfectly. God bless you for giving us all this incredible gift.
Dan, your voice, your humour, your discipline....are all so far beyond exceptional. God is drawing ppl to himself, through you Dan. ❤ YOU ARE A GIANT BLESSING.
You have a sublime voice!, powerful! I love me in the male version...I recommend the Catalan language version made in BARCELONA (Catalonia) you will find it on you tube: Mónica Naranjo - "Avui vull agraïr" A la Sagrada Família.
I’m 75. Guess all of us oldies are here listening with tears running downing our cheeks. I have been walking with Jesus for over half a century, and never heard this sung better. The sense of this gathering of my generation here to listen is really a reassuring moment! There are many of us left who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
If a song sung like this can bring a world to the Lord than let it be sung to the world because isn't that the purpose anyway? We pray for the lost, sometimes people find God because of songs like this
I'm in tears reading this❤ We're ALL On different rungs on the Ladder to Jesus Christ, but We are ALL Here Together 🥹 Can't wait to meet y'all when our Savior comes back to take us home!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As an American, Israeli dual citizen, my heart has been breaking this last week for my family, and other loved ones in Israel, and for our Palestinian neighbors. After listening to Dan, sing amazing Grace, my heart opened up, and I cried, as never before in my 77 years. Maybe that’s what Grace is for me at this time. Thank you thank you thank you.
susanmacian. All our hearts are breaking now with what is going on. Yes I think Grace can be anything that heals or helps you. Lets hope there is an end soon.
@jschuler53 I am a born again follower of CHRIST OUR MESSIAH ✝️ I was just diagnosed with breast cancer 😢but I'm enduring until JESUS removes us or HE removes me🕊❤of COURSE HE REDEEMED ME IN 2011, I PRAISE GOD THAT I DIDN'T DIE IN UNBEIEF!❤ This war is going to take months, unfortunately those who call themselves Palestinians are not. After Rome burned 🔥 the temple and scattered HIS BELOVED PEOPLE ISRAEL 🇮🇱 just to mock the Israelis, they named the land GOD gave them in a covenant way Abraham saying that his descendants with always have the land GOD gave them. Actually there's no such thing as Palestinians, Rome wanted to mock Isreal by naming it after the philsteins. No other Arab nation will allow them in their country because they know these people are trouble! As we saw on October 7th, 2023😢
I discovered this about 7 months ago. I listen to it weekly. Every Sunday morning with my headphones on , loud, standing at my back door with a cup of tea. It's an emotional overload and I feel a weird energy of hope and positive being inside. Finish my tea and carry on with my day. I havent had a bad Sunday in months. That weird energy lasts with me all day. I'm a typical 43 Yr old working male with a family of 4 girls, doing manly stuff, into typical dad things .. but this song breaks me into someone else for a day! Strong powerful rendition for sure!
I'm currently traveling to spread my wife's ashes among a field of flowers. I lost her on February 21. This... this version is, by far, the best version of this great anthem. Thank you for bringing me a lifting spirit in my time of grief. God bless you, brother.
I'm an old (70) southern conservative raised on hymns and such. I can honestly say I was in tears within the first minute. Beautiful, anointed and gifted. May God use you in a multifaceted way to reach all genres of music. You are a blessing!!!
I showed this to my 87 yr old father who was a fighter pilot for USAF. Tears came to his eyes. He told me that when he flew the F-86 and F-101, he and his navigator used to sing this song when they soared above the clouds.
Eds mom here.Thursday was first time I heard you.I am 82 yrs old, never listened to metal, I have been listening, crying , chills over and over. I don,t just listen, I watch and you and your voice is the best I have heard since Elvis Presley. please record more hymns. keep up the great work. you are AMAZING
Dan, we played you singing Amazing Grace for my mother before she passed away. When she heard you singing, she visibly relaxed and had the most beautiful smile and drifted off to sleep. She passed a few hours later. You can not know the gift you provided my family through your song. Thank you
Just beautiful. I look forward to meeting your mother when we go home, through God's Grace, the Son, Jesus Christ, and His blood shed at Calvary. Amen 🙏✝️

In the name of Jesus, your cancer will leave and you will be stronger than ever. Keep your faith, I'm going to lift you up in prayer as I'm sure many others who've read your comment will as well. God bless you ❤
This was truly amazing. My dad has had cancer for about 3 months and us just about to start chemo. These days have been really hard and challenging. Today, I just wanted it all to end a give up. This song has lifted me up today and has really helped. I'm only 15 and it's been a rough ride lately. I really needed this today.
My mom was diagnosed with cancer when I was 19, so I know how rough it can be. No matter how hard life gets, the rough times and extreme grief don't last forever, even though it seems like it will and the pain seems unbearable at times. Never give up. Your life matters, and you are here for a reason. I'll keep you and your dad in my prayers.
My young friend. I'm not going to tell you about my troubles back then but 15 was a really rough year for me also. It eventually got better. Purpose is a funny thing. If the universe did not have purpose we would not know what purpose was. You have a purpose (and I'd say a good one) keep living into it.
I am a 71 retired gospel singer and all I can say is WOW.! I loved this! God bless you and I pray that He will guide you and order your steps through out your life. May the Spirit of God protect you and always shine through your music to reach your audience. God bless you.
I am a preacher’s daughter, I have sang my whole life. This is the greatest rendition of this song I have ever heard!!!! Made my husband promise me that this would be played at my funeral!!!!! Everyone should sing this song with that much emotion!!!! Thank you!!!!
Same! I'm a 55yr old PK! I said the exact same thing!! I wrote a long post here last year. I couldn't stop listening & weeping over all that our Savior did for us!! I still listen over & over!😊
My God in Heaven!!!! I have NEVER heard a more beautiful, powerful and touching rendition of this old hymn. I sat here crying for the first time in ages. I had become so jaded with "church" and was wondering if my service was ever really meaningful. You killed that fear in me and gave me something I thought was lost in me forever. Thank you from an old retired and now breathless preacher.
Thank you for your years of service. It did matter. You matter. And your reward is in heaven, it will all be worth it in the end. God saw it, he heard your prayers and your cries. He cares. Just felt from Holy Spirit to say that. Bless you ❤
I am a 64 year old preachers son. I grew up singing this song and have done so my entire life. You, sir, captured the true emotion John Newton intended for us to feel. The most beautiful rendition I have ever heard.
Me too! I’m also 64, and grew up listening to this beautiful song at all of the churches where my Dad served as pastor in the Presbyterian church. John Newton’s story should be an inspiration to all of us.
I just lost my husband suddenly after 53 1/2 years of what everyone called the best marriage they had ever seen. When I heard you singing Amazing Grace I knew it was going to be the first song at his service which will be next Tuesday August 1, 2023. I have listened to it several times and love it more every time. It will be an honor to play it. I am beyond devastated. Thank you!
I lost my 44-year-old from cancer from the burn pits in Iraq. I sure wish I could have played this song for him. His last days were horrible to watch and it's Amazing Grace that saved my son from the battle and the hell of his cancer. I wish I could buy your CD's, but I guess they don't exist? But young dude you are something else and a privilege to listen to. May you always have success and a wonderful life. Just thanks for great songs, songs can mean so much and bring happiness.
God bless you. This song moved me deeply as a grieving momma to my middle son, Albert. It's so powerful! Thank Jesus that we have the Blessed Hope to see them again!!
God bless you. I am so sorry. My Husbands cousin got cancer from that too but he has survived. He is in remission for now. I pray he stays cancer free. So many give their lives in a way that most people do not even think of. May this hero RIP and I thank them for their service and ultimate sacrifice. 😢 🇺🇸
Dan is beautiful in many ways inside and out. His tribute to Annie and Robert showed a depth of beauty in his soul. This rendition moved me with the beauty of his voice but what I liked most was his metal spin on it. Amazing creativity.
I am 79 years old and it is January 31st 2024. I just came across this video it is one of the most beautiful renditions of this song I have ever heard in my life and God bless this young man for singing it! I pray the good Lord is good to him and that he is blessed. I hope to mert him in Heaven🎚
Dan's performance of Amazing Grace in a " heavy metal" style is so moving!! Have y'all heard his other songs on U Tube? He will blow your mind!! So very talented 😍🤯❤️
I’m just an old guy who has never considered metal real music, but I have to confess, this young man’s rendition of Amazing Grace is how John Newton meant his lyrics to be sung - with absolute clarity and piercing conviction.
I've heard this sung many ways and heard it in church all my life. This is hands down the way I realize it was meant to be sung - with the sound of triumph. Oddly, I agree with you and feel this is the feeling and message John Newton meant to convey.
My father passed away Tuesday night, for days I've been dealing with the hurt and loss. On the day I'm getting ready to go to his Wake and his Funeral tomorrow this showed up in my feed because I love your work and admire how amazing your voice is. THIS gave me so much comfort. I cried the whole time and felt my dad telling me "I'm here and your going to be okay." From the bottom of my heart ❤ thank you so much for this comfort I feel in my spirit. God bless and keep you forever.
Blessings be upon you and your family for your loss. I lost my father back 2016 and know the pain. But know that he is at peace with the Father above and have faith that one day you will see him again.
My Grandfather used to tell me that the Bible spoke of a song that would be so beautiful that not even the angels in heaven could sing, I have often wondered if Amazing Grace were that song. Certainly the angelic beings would need no salvation so they couldn't rightfully sing this praise to God, only mortal man. This is one of the most beautiful renditions I've ever heard.
0:01 you couldn’t have said it better. I’m agnostic. And for me this song, the way he sung it, gave me that spiritual feeling. Best rendition of a song I’ve ever heard. Second is sounds of silence by disturbed. The man’s vocals are also faultless. Cheers Sean
Discovered this amazing guy last night. I am now happily subscribed to his channel, and can’t wait to hear all of his cover performances on video!! (He’s so incredibly easy on the eyes and beautiful to behold!!♥️💯🙏
I’m 67 years old and I’m standing here crying. I have heard this sung hundreds of times in my lifetime but never have I heard it sung with such grace and authority. 🙌Young man, God has a plan for you and that wonderful voice! You may not realize it now but you will in God’s time. Just remember that it doesn’t matter what we’ve done or where we’ve been in life because Jesus has already died and paid the price. God bless you on your journey. I’ll be praying for you. 🙏
60 years old. In 2014 He saved my life in a car accident miracle . In 2016 He saved my soul. I was truly lost but found. You captured it all as any human could expres. God bless you Dan. Thank you thank you thank you for being bold. I've listened to this 40 times since I first saw it on Saturday. In tears. Thank you Jesus for Dans beautiful perfect interpretation.
This was my dad's favorite gospel song. He passed away 24 years ago and I haven't been able to listen to this song since. But I listened to you singing and I felt so close to my daddy and to Jesus Christ. You are absolutely amazing and God bless you.😊🙏❤️❤️
You've given me a priceless gift. I've lost 2 sons. One 24 and the other 31. I live alone and almost 69. and it's hard to process grief when you don't have anyone around to help Thank you so much! for what you do. Beautiful! I've socially isolated myself. I've been diagnosed with early onset of dementia. I kinda laughed at myself when I thought about it.... having dementia and losing my memories, I won't have to feel like my guts are being ripped out. My heart hurts. Love your beautiful voice!
Have you ever heard of "Trey Smith"? He was great friends with "Kim Clement"! His mother was told she had 3 months to live cancer, it had spread through her body but sje refused tp to accept this. So she put up quotes from Bible and placed them around her home. She also read scriptures from the Bible, she'd say. "GOD MADE ME PERFECT, I AM HEALED, I AM PERFECT JUST AS GOD MADE ME"!!! When she went back to the hospital she found all traces of the cancer were gone. You see when you hold on to pain, suffering the loss of your dear children or anything else, it makes your body sick also.. One must forgive and love oneself and let go of the pain the suffering your going through. Death is not the end it is only the beginning because the soul lives forever.. No one truly dies, they just transform into energy... These things are gifts for the soul, the good the bad and darn right horrific.. But these things are done through you not to to.. God is in you as you are in him, this body is but a vessel to learn what it is like to be human... If one has never suffered known pain how can one have compassion, mercy, sympathy etc for anyone else? Sad but we humans don't seek God except in times of trouble for the most part.. it is only when we suffer do we seek him... I'm so sorry for the great loss you've suffered, there are no words that can express my deep sorrow for it.. But God loves you sooooo much he is waiting... One must ask to receive, ask him to help you through this and he will do so.. When one holds on to pain it comes out in sickness. Father please I beg you to help this beautiful soul to be whole again to be healthy again... I AM . ❤️
Dan, my 47 yr old Firefighter son died in August of colon cancer, now considered a Firefighter hazard. He had a full Firefighter's service. Amazing Grace was played by bagpipes at the end of the service. He would have been proud to have you sing your beautiful rendition of this powerful song, in his service.
It's brave people like your son who keep this crazy world going. I thank God for him and thanks to you for raising him right. That may be the only comfort you can find right now I hope it will sustain you
Dan I'm going through a very hard time mentally in my life right now. I have a suicidal past and I've spiraled down to that darkness again. I'm fighting a daily battle to not do self harm. I can't tell you how many times I've played this in the past week since I saw you on UA-cam. Right now, your incredible gift of moving hearts and minds is the only thing keeping me holding on. 🙏
I believe satan cannot harm us when we are lifting our savior up in a hym, i have also spiraled that direction, and experienced relief by lifting up our lord with praise in song
I have been there so many times myself. I was in THAT spot that you know well when The Chosen came on my feed and I ended up binge watching and then throwing myself to the ground to give it up to God. Three years no panic attacks, insomnia, or depression. I pray this happens for you too. It's a horrible place to be that I do not go to anymore. Bless you, sweetie.
Please stay safe. My daughters best friend killed himself this week and if he could see the devastation he's left behind he would never have done it. You are loved.
I’m sure you won’t ever read this, I see all the comments so I’m sure it’s impossible… but I need to put this in words… On 8-22-2022 I lost my son, whoI affectionately called Danny, his friends Dan, but always my Danny Boy. Since he left us I have not listened to a second of music, you see music is something we both loved, he played the guitar as a child, and as an adult he continued to play and loved mixing music. My point…one day last week you showed up at the top of my feed here on UA-cam…I don’t listen to music, as I said before, I only listen to spiritually videos trying to find a way to connect to Danny…I believe someway some how he put you at the top of my feed…you resemble him in slight ways and of course your name…now I listen to music again, slowly, and only yours…you have a beautiful voice and my heart fills with Danny when I hear you sing…thank you for what you do
Dear Dan, by recording this song, you have honored both God and your father. Your talents, ie. voice and arranging, are skillfully used to move people's hearts. God works in mysterious and wonderful ways and this recording has reached many, many people who normally wouldn't have listened to this song. Thank you for being you. You are a gift.❤
I needed to hear this today. My wife and I have been completely alone for a few months now and really struggling with loneliness and trying to trust the Lord through this desert. The world is getting really hard to navigate. God have mercy on us.
This hurts my heart to hear this, you are never alone in this world. Find your tribe. We need people in our life and anyone can become our family members. Church, city, neighbors. I understand your frustration I wish I knew you ❤
Beautiful! I recently lost my eldest daughter. Last year her sister passed, and 10 years ago…her twin lost her life. There are days I don’t know how I make it through another day…having lost all my girls. This song, this performance? God knew exactly what I needed to hear… Thank you Papa….
Oh, I’m so very sorry for your losses. There are no words that can make it better, but I hope you can feel the care from everyone who commented or liked.
Dan I’m another 70 year old Christian. I can’t stop playing it. My spirit leaped for joy! Praise the Lord! I have always loved Amazing Grace but you sung it the way I feel. Praise God.
I'm 59 years old. A husband, father and grandfather. I am a Christian. You brought beauty and faith into my life. Thank you. Don't tread on me. Let your faith be your shield.
I am 70, and my mom is 93. This song is so beautiful, mom wants it her at her service when time comes. Me too, until than we listen 100 x a day. Always loved this song, but you made it even more special
This is Grandma from Texas. I’m speechless. I have been a Christian since I was 16 years old. I am nearly 70 now. I have heard this song more times than I can count. I have heard it sung by the best through the years. I am thinking that you are the one who got it right, really right. I imagine that all the Angels in Heaven stop,,, and hush when you lift your voice and praise God with this precious old hymn. I found your rendition a couple of weeks ago for the first time. I purchased it and listen to it repeatedly. I prefer watching you perform it on UA-cam because the emotion you bring is so real and so touching that it makes me weep every single time. It is as if you know HIM of Whom you sing. Thank you for this. I pray you never forget where you come from and Who’s you are. Thank you again for blessing the whole world
I just turned 65 in March and Dan just *blows me away* every time i listen to this song (as well as the others i've watched/heard). I also think God blessed him with a stupendous voice...and he's never gonna break any mirrors, either! 😁😻😉 Gorgeous young man!
Dan, I am a 57yr old veteran and haven’t listened to much metal since HS/College in the 80s. I came across this today. I had tears in my eyes before the harmonica solo and down my cheeks as you hit full metal. From skeptical to very moved. Thank you sir.
Amazing grace came down to the Vietnam combat veteran, brought me home. Forgave America myself. PTSD killing me with resentments hatred drug alcohol addiction… Yeshua is beautiful and beyond beautiful…
I'm ,60 and not long before I leave this body.ive also heard this a million times but I hope they play this rendition at my funeral .May God keep you under his wings and I mean all of you reading this..
I lost my only sibling in 1978. He was 25 and I was 27. A tenor sang this a cappella and I cried - no blubbered. It took me 8 years to even listen to this song without crying. The intensity in the singer’s voice matches how my heart broke. I’m 74 now and my brother would be 72, but he will always be 25.
I lost my brother when he was just a month shy of 32 and I was 30 at the time. I’m so daunted at facing life without him. I’m now 31 so maybe I’ve got a ways to go 😢 Ty for sharing your story
We lost our daughter last year and I still talk to God daily but without as much enthusiasm. When I heard you sing this it brought me to tears because I remembered that I needed to be grateful for everything and shout to the Lord Thank you 🙏 This song was meant to be sung by you just the way you did it.(like a wake up call) I love to listen to it and pass it on to others that are struggling. It has helped so many already! Bless you Dan for what you unknowingly gave me.
I lost my husband last year and I sang this at the cemetery. Lately I have been viewing this song, like saying the Pledge of Allegiance everyday at school. It had started to be something I had to do. Not wanting to do, anymore. It didn't have any feelings anymore. But after hearing him sing this song, I regained the emotions and feelings and true meanings behind this song.
@@ur_favone I’m so sorry for your loss. I understand what you mean about feeling things again after hearing this song. The same is true for me and I listen to it daily as well. God Bless you…..
@heikira438 I actually love hearing this song on the bagpipes; maybe it's Scot in me but there is something very soulful about the pipes to me. But the way this man sang this song was raw, unadorned truth.
I'll go out on a limb and say that in the 251 years since John Newton penned this song, NO ONE has come close to expressing it so powerfully and with such passion, and I doubt anyone will ever surpass your rendition. This is a song proclaiming and celebrating the freedom that comes only through the grace of our Creator and Living God, and brother you nailed it like it should be!
I get chills every time! I am 59 and my wife 67 has had very bad health issues for the last year, she is bedridden and dependent on me for everything! At work before i start I pray and Kneel to the lord and ask him for One more day with her! I am an automotive mechanic, here in Wasilla Alaska! Thank you!
I am also a automotive mechanic in Longview Texas, as long as you have faith in the lord you and your wife will be just fine, God bless you, and be safe my friend
Happy Easter!!!
Happy Easter to you to Future Dan!
Nice to have ya back dan! been missing ur music, and also, Happy Easter!
Thanks, and Happy Easter to you also, 😊❤️
Happy Easter Dan
Great Rendition✊🏻✝️
Dan , I'm 70 yrs old, a very faithful Christian, I've heard this song sung a 101 ways but young man you made me hold my breath..a most beautiful and unusual rendition I've ever heard..Ill keep listening to it..waiting for your next miracle ❤😂😊
I am 67 yrs old and did not expect to be moved like I was. I agree with others you have a gift from God. I pray you will share some more songs that praise God. Thank you.
I too,am 70 and a widow 😢
I’m 80 yrs old I COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE!!!
OMGOSH I WANT TO HEAR YOU DO MORE SONGS LIKE THIS.
IT TOUCHED MY HEART AND SOUL.
BLESS YOU
BLESS YOU 🙏🏻

I lost my daughter to fentanyl in 2019 and I swore I'd never listen to this song again. I also couldn't cry over it. You've given me the gift of being able to grieve properly and cry it out. Thank you young man!😢🎉
My prayers are with you
So sorry for your loss ❤
We have to find out solace from somewhere and our strength to go on somehow.
It's all good. 🌅
Dear Jane, greetings from France. Please allow us all to hug you. We share your pain and wish we could ease it a bit. You are not alone. Reach out. And remember G.od is with you, in you, and all around you.
SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER 💔💔 If Dan's performance of this song helps you grieve, then do " cry it out" 🙏 in prayer! I think that's how God will heal your broken heart!! May God bless continue to bless you 💖 from Georgia with love ❤️
Sadly, I lost my husband Christmas Day 2024. Your version represents him so perfectly big, bold, and powerful ❤ Your rendition will be his entrance song marking his final journey from this life 💔 I can't thank you enough for giving us such a truly powerful rendition that clearly comes from deep within your soul ❤️
Absolutely love the comments of a older generation showing up in love, appreciation, and awe for the heavy metal version
At 77 years old, I resemble that remark. lol I am of the Elvis and Beatles generation. We can actually hear Dan’s awesome voice. Much of the heavy metal is overpowered by the guitars. Dan’s simple black background makes it possible to see the emotion he pours into every song. And the glimpses of his personality in the outros show what a kind, caring and funny guy he is.
This isn’t a heavy metal version! He’s just singing and doing a wonderful job
It's so cool! Right !!🥺🥺
@@elaineboone8567recommendation if you haven't already heard.. Disturbed - The Sound of Silence
Right! My heart!! Ugh 🫶🏻
Honey, I'm a 67 year old lady from Texas, and I must tell you, I scrolled past this video many times. Today, Jan 20, 2024, the Lord urged me to stop and listen. As always, He gave me something wonderful. You really did a fabulous rendition of a most beautiful gospel song. Take my word for it, you glorified Him in a wonderful display of the voice he blessed you with. I'm saving this to my playlist. Please do some more gospel!
Remember to subscribe and pass along the word to your friends about this beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace. Dan has many other beautiful songs on his channel.
Beautiful , the best version of amazing Grace, I have ever heard, Thank You DAN ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am a Newfoundlander with family in Texas. I worry for them everyday. For what has happened to my Nephew and his lovley wife. They left her to bleed out in the parking lot until she almost died. God's word of Abbott!
never judge a metal head by their appearance \m/
It's actually a Hymn written 100 years before Gospel music would ever become a thing. And the man who wrote it wasn't a nice man, he was a slaver, deserter, foul mouthed well beyond sailor's standards (and that is saying something), and incited mutiny against his captains.
This young man is a metal singer????? WOW. THIS song didn't come from his diaphragm, it came from his soul. It lifted my soul immediately. Beautiful.
I as well
It's not the voice that makes the song metal but the instrumentation. Listen to the guitar and you'll know what I mean.
I absolutely love listening to Dan Vasc sing Amazing Grace.
I had never heard of this man before this song. Talk about a true bring you to church and bring tears to your eyes for a few rendition song. Love him and his work!
Most metal singers are excellent singers. They have stellar vocal control...they have to to sing metal lyrics. Metal vocalist are seriously underrated.
I had my 73 yr. old Baptist mom listen today. When I said it was a heavy metal singer performing amazing grace she wasn't so sure. After listening, she was misty eyed and said this is how the song should be sung. With passion and power. ❤
I did the same thing to my mom when she was 75. She absolutely loved it! If she would have allowed us to have a service for her a couple months ago, Dan’s version would have been played. She heard it 6 months before we lost her
Im a 62 yr old Scot and have always felt this song was meant to be belted out, your version is how this should be sung. I bet yours rattled the doors of heaven, absolutely brilliant
Couldn’t have said it better, my friend…couldn’t have said it better!
All it needed was some pipes
Beau4
I must confess that I have never been that much of a fan of the 'belting out' style of vocals. My taste runs more to Frank Sinatra (and the King's Singers 🙂). The best way to hear AG is with the pipes. AG and Scotland the Brave are far and away the favorite songs played by massed bands at Highland Games in the US.
@@mescko the tune for AG sounds good on the pipes but if your looking for what sounds best played by massed pipes look no further than Highland Cathedral, there are thousand of heartstoppingly beautiful bagpipe tunes but I wouldn't class Scotland the brave as one but each to their own
I just turned 58 and have loved this song for most of my life. I’ve always shed tears when I hear this song. Today however after I shed a little for a very beautiful rendition of this old classic, most of the tears I shed were from reading these comments. God bless this young man and may He bless all of you who have or will watch this video.
AMEN!! ❤
Yes he has
If there had been bagpipes I would have lost it.
God bless you❤
Friday, February 2. have had one of those days where I am reminded of friendship that was about children who have grown and grown up. About loss, about joys about things I had forgotten, which magically just came to life today. just before midnight in (Denmark . as if grace led me the way, for what I had to experience and relive ... and don't know yet if your version of amazing grace is the end of this blessing of understanding for pure love that this day has given. but what a fantastic ending. and thank you for being part of that story now.. sending love back because you deserve it.😊❤
Can you feel it....
God is moving on the earth. He is here.
And where exactly is that then because it sure ain't in Ukraine, Palestine, Haiti, Syria, Afghanistan etc, etc, etc ..........???
If you can see the grace you can project it. God.will always work through you and yours. Be strong, so that they may be strong thru you. Help it does not matter how just do it.
@rlg_freedomfirst4701 Yes, He is moving. It's exciting and scary at the same time. Personally. I really can't wait!
💗
Amen 🙏🏻 ABSOLUTELY 💯 🙏🏻
Dan, I’m a 69 almost 70 year old woman with cancer. I’ve always loved this song my whole entire life but your cover is far and above the most moving and iconic I’ve ever heard. I have requested this video played at my funeral. Bless you always and keep sharing your beautiful gift. ❤
God bless you and give you amazing grace 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I pray you are doing well.
May God bless and keep you Terry. Fight as hard as you can. Miracles happen EVERY day! 🙏🏻💕🙏🏻
Terry..don't give up!!! Praying
Praying for your recuperation..God bless you!!!
@ thank you. I appreciate your prayers!
I imagined that God was walking in Heaven and had to pause as he heard this young man sing. Truly amazing performance.
Dan definitely will have a place in the Heavenly Choir.
The visuals I my mind from your comment just made me laugh 😂😂😂
Can you imagine
Probably turned all the angels heads.
Absolutely this man has such a powerful voice I was in tears and had goosebumps. He is truly blessed and happy he is sharing it for all of us to enjoy
Im going to be 61 in May, I have stage 4 bone cancer. I listened to your beautiful voice sing that song, It was absolutely amazing. May GOD BLESS you as you continue to sing for Jesus Christ, our savior!!
That was an amazing song!! He is a wonderful singer blessed with one amazing singing voice! 🙏❤
I was absolutely blown away with this version, the best I have ever heard. What an amazing tone you have to your voice. Thankyou for your gift and inspiration
Amazing!!!
@KarenReider praying you heal! 🙏
Prayers for your healing and may God free you from pain.
If you are watching this may god bless you ❤
And you❤
Bless you 🙏🏼
Stupid comment. Really? This is what it takes for you ppl to come under conviction? Go listen to David Phelps, not this sub-par dude. Geesh
Thank-you. God bless you and everyone everywhere. All is in divine order.
@@rosyrose4620 God Bless u !
This was the hymn sung at my husbands funeral 35 years ago. I'm still mourning him. My soul mate waiting to be reunited with him one day. Praise the Lord ❤
Sung at my dads funeral in 1983. Such a beautiful and powerful song❤
I can't stop watching this!! My favorite hymn, but this version just blows me away!
The pain does not truly fade in this world, but we look to the world to come. Come, Lord Jesus.
Peace be with you.
Within the first minute I swear I could feel my father. Crying tears of joy by 2 minutes. Dan this is such a beautiful gift you have given me. GOD BLESS YOU.
I'm crying my eyes out too. I'm so grateful for this lovely video. What a beautiful thing he's done for God.
God bless you! Yes, it is such a beautiful rendition!
My dad was in choir this whole life and even sang for the Dallas symphony! Sadly he passed a few years ago in an accident way too soon. I'm 29 now.
I know exactly what you mean when you say you feel your father!
God bless you
WOW DAN VASC!! YOU NAILED IT!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! 💪🇺🇸🐍🙏🌟✨💫
@@racheljames7 indeed indeed
I am a 73 year old female in bad health and I am a Christian. I am just waiting for Jesus to take me home.. I needed to hear this song today.. This brought tears down my face and it reminded me who I am in Christ.
I will pray for you!!!
I prayed for you to let God take care of your body and soul ! Amen
My Prayers are With You!!
God bless you 🙏
Sigh, the delusions are strong in this comment section!
I'm 66, a churchgoer all my whole life, plus listen to hymns frequently on UA-cam and radio, and no one person on this earth has ever sung this more perfectly. God bless you for giving us all this incredible gift.
Dan, your voice, your humour, your discipline....are all so far beyond exceptional. God is drawing ppl to himself, through you Dan. ❤ YOU ARE A GIANT BLESSING.
@@s.d.melcher I did and his version of Angels we have Heard on High is the best ever, period.
I agree with you.
You have a sublime voice!, powerful! I love me in the male version...I recommend the Catalan language version made in BARCELONA (Catalonia) you will find it on you tube: Mónica Naranjo - "Avui vull agraïr" A la Sagrada Família.
Same here! This is amazing! I didn’t know I’d like metal! However Jesus feet are bronze in revelation. 😂
Brother, I have chills all over. Thank you.
I’m 75. Guess all of us oldies are here listening with tears running downing our cheeks. I have been walking with Jesus for over half a century, and never heard this sung better. The sense of this gathering of my generation here to listen is really a reassuring moment! There are many of us left who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
I'm 54 and can't stop crying either! I've never heard such a beautiful version of this song. The power in his voice! Such talent gives you chills.
Amen you elders. I am a millennial. And I respect you all. Blessed be the Name of the Lord God of Israel! And may we never bow the knee to Baal.
Good Man
@@soulstorm8806
I've listened to this a couple hundred times
It will be the final hymn at my funeral, with only Dan singing
Hopefully they can play this video also
Totally agree with you!! The best rendition I've ever heard and I'm 71 years young.....
I'm 87 and that is about the most professional version I have heard anyone sing that song. I believe God wants you to sing for Him...not the world
If a song sung like this can bring a world to the Lord than let it be sung to the world because isn't that the purpose anyway? We pray for the lost, sometimes people find God because of songs like this
I'm in tears reading this❤ We're ALL On different rungs on the Ladder to Jesus Christ, but We are ALL Here Together 🥹 Can't wait to meet y'all when our Savior comes back to take us home!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
AMEN! This old gospel singer is weeping.
Amen
❤
As an American, Israeli dual citizen, my heart has been breaking this last week for my family, and other loved ones in Israel, and for our Palestinian neighbors. After listening to Dan, sing amazing Grace, my heart opened up, and I cried, as never before in my 77 years. Maybe that’s what Grace is for me at this time. Thank you thank you thank you.
susanmacian. All our hearts are breaking now with what is going on. Yes I think Grace can be anything that heals or helps you. Lets hope there is an end soon.
Praying for those in Israel!
Praying for peace, praying for Israel, praying for a solution for all to live in harmony in Jesus name.
❤️🙏❤️
@jschuler53 I am a born again follower of CHRIST OUR MESSIAH ✝️ I was just diagnosed with breast cancer 😢but I'm enduring until JESUS removes us or HE removes me🕊❤of COURSE HE REDEEMED ME IN 2011, I PRAISE GOD THAT I DIDN'T DIE IN UNBEIEF!❤ This war is going to take months, unfortunately those who call themselves Palestinians are not. After Rome burned 🔥 the temple and scattered HIS BELOVED PEOPLE ISRAEL 🇮🇱 just to mock the Israelis, they named the land GOD gave them in a covenant way Abraham saying that his descendants with always have the land GOD gave them. Actually there's no such thing as Palestinians, Rome wanted to mock Isreal by naming it after the philsteins. No other Arab nation will allow them in their country because they know these people are trouble! As we saw on October 7th, 2023😢
I am listening to his music now.
The date is Dec. 30, 2024.
I love his music.

I discovered this about 7 months ago. I listen to it weekly. Every Sunday morning with my headphones on , loud, standing at my back door with a cup of tea. It's an emotional overload and I feel a weird energy of hope and positive being inside. Finish my tea and carry on with my day. I havent had a bad Sunday in months. That weird energy lasts with me all day. I'm a typical 43 Yr old working male with a family of 4 girls, doing manly stuff, into typical dad things .. but this song breaks me into someone else for a day! Strong powerful rendition for sure!
@@kathybotkin150 Hi! Wow huh. Kylie
I'm listening today Jan 3, 2025. Most magnificent rendition I've heard. Tears flowing ...thank goodness he sang this
Have you heard Dan's cover of "O Holy Night"?? Made my hair stand on end.
I'm 75 yrs old & I did not make it this far on my own. The LORD God is very loving to all his children. Remember to Follow Jesus.
Hallelujah my dear Brethren
Wow 👌
Amen
Just found you. Love your music. I am also almost 80 years old. There is something very special about you. With love x
I'm currently traveling to spread my wife's ashes among a field of flowers. I lost her on February 21. This... this version is, by far, the best version of this great anthem. Thank you for bringing me a lifting spirit in my time of grief. God bless you, brother.
May you be blessed with the flowers of peace 💐

Amen freedom to my heart every time I hear this song
Amen
Was my dads' favorite song. He passed in 1973. I was 22. You do a BEAUTIFUL job!!!!
❤❤❤
BEST RENDITION EVER!! THANK YOU!!! MAY GOD BLESS YOU!!! DAMN!!🙏🏼🙏🏼 BEAUTIFULLY AMAZING!!!
I showed this to my 87 yr old father who was a fighter pilot for USAF. Tears came to his eyes. He told me that when he flew the F-86 and F-101, he and his navigator used to sing this song when they soared above the clouds.
Wow thank you dad for his service
Thank you for sharing this.
⚘️
Love your story about your Dad and singing this song while flying missions! Yes, and thank your Father for his brave service!
@@dianasharp7323 Thank you so much! I just read your message to him. He says it was his honor.

Hello, I, too, am 77 years old; and as a musician, this is one of the most exquisite renditions I have heard. This shook me up.
Same here!
I am 79 and I agree with you Shirley - Truly Amazing rendition!
God is only in his heart IF he receives Jesus as his Lord and Savior. 💖
Eds mom here.Thursday was first time I heard you.I am 82 yrs old, never listened to metal, I have been listening, crying , chills over and over. I don,t just listen, I watch and you and your voice is the best I have heard since Elvis Presley. please record more hymns. keep up the great work. you are AMAZING
ELVIS DOESN'T HOLD A CANDLE ... . LOL🎉
Hands down, this is the BEST version!!!! One million thumbs up!!!!
Dan, we played you singing Amazing Grace for my mother before she passed away. When she heard you singing, she visibly relaxed and had the most beautiful smile and drifted off to sleep. She passed a few hours later. You can not know the gift you provided my family through your song. Thank you
Sorry for you loss ❤
🥺🥺😢😢😢🙏🙏 May God be with you, in this time. She's with the Lord.

In the name of Jesus, your cancer will leave and you will be stronger than ever. Keep your faith, I'm going to lift you up in prayer as I'm sure many others who've read your comment will as well. God bless you ❤
This was truly amazing. My dad has had cancer for about 3 months and us just about to start chemo. These days have been really hard and challenging. Today, I just wanted it all to end a give up. This song has lifted me up today and has really helped. I'm only 15 and it's been a rough ride lately. I really needed this today.
Stay strong. Dan has a lot of great music on his channel to help you feel better and uplift your spirit.
My mom was diagnosed with cancer when I was 19, so I know how rough it can be. No matter how hard life gets, the rough times and extreme grief don't last forever, even though it seems like it will and the pain seems unbearable at times. Never give up. Your life matters, and you are here for a reason. I'll keep you and your dad in my prayers.
My young friend. I'm not going to tell you about my troubles back then but 15 was a really rough year for me also. It eventually got better. Purpose is a funny thing. If the universe did not have purpose we would not know what purpose was. You have a purpose (and I'd say a good one) keep living into it.
{{Big Hugs}} to you and your family--

Just came upon him. Never heard of him. But what a voice. Could listen to him all day. Amazing.
I am a preacher’s daughter, I have sang my whole life. This is the greatest rendition of this song I have ever heard!!!! Made my husband promise me that this would be played at my funeral!!!!! Everyone should sing this song with that much emotion!!!! Thank you!!!!
Happy Easter 2024!
Same! I'm a 55yr old PK! I said the exact same thing!! I wrote a long post here last year. I couldn't stop listening & weeping over all that our Savior did for us!! I still listen over & over!😊
I agree, the best rendition of this song yet. So strong and I love his vocal range and how he sings this. Beautiful.
Amazing
I want to see him on national TV
My God in Heaven!!!! I have NEVER heard a more beautiful, powerful and touching rendition of this old hymn. I sat here crying for the first time in ages. I had become so jaded with "church" and was wondering if my service was ever really meaningful. You killed that fear in me and gave me something I thought was lost in me forever. Thank you from an old retired and now breathless preacher.
Thank you for your years of service. It did matter. You matter. And your reward is in heaven, it will all be worth it in the end. God saw it, he heard your prayers and your cries. He cares. Just felt from Holy Spirit to say that. Bless you ❤

AMEN!!!!!!’ EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!
I agree, it’s the emotion in his tone that sets Dan worlds apart from all others. Amazing through Grace. 🥰
Praise God. Thank you young man.
Awesome!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Me too! I’m also 64, and grew up listening to this beautiful song at all of the churches where my Dad served as pastor in the Presbyterian church. John Newton’s story should be an inspiration to all of us.
This version is incredible! Dan's voice is so crystal clear and deep; just absolutely beautiful!! ❤ Thank you, Lord, for everything. 🙏❤️
I just lost my husband suddenly after 53 1/2 years of what everyone called the best marriage they had ever seen. When I heard you singing Amazing Grace I knew it was going to be the first song at his service which will be next Tuesday August 1, 2023. I have listened to it several times and love it more every time. It will be an honor to play it. I am beyond devastated. Thank you!
So sorry for your loss, I’m sure the service will be beautiful and he’ll be looking down smiling on you! X
Sorry to hear of your loss. It's rare I hear/see a good marriage. What was the hardest thing about it and how did you deal with it?

Listening to bagpipers is a treat and am in total agreement with you in regard to Dan's amazing rendition of this gorgeous hymn!
Hearing this played on pipes is possibly one of the most emotional experiences in the universe. Makes me cry every time.
Your Andy M Stewart was my favorite singer. I miss him so.
Bagpipes and this rendition are my top 2 favorites now.
Amen
I lost my 44-year-old from cancer from the burn pits in Iraq. I sure wish I could have played this song for him. His last days were horrible to watch and it's Amazing Grace that saved my son from the battle and the hell of his cancer. I wish I could buy your CD's, but I guess they don't exist? But young dude you are something else and a privilege to listen to. May you always have success and a wonderful life. Just thanks for great songs, songs can mean so much and bring happiness.
God bless you. This song moved me deeply as a grieving momma to my middle son, Albert. It's so powerful! Thank Jesus that we have the Blessed Hope to see them again!!
God bless you. I am so sorry. My Husbands cousin got cancer from that too but he has survived. He is in remission for now. I pray he stays cancer free. So many give their lives in a way that most people do not even think of. May this hero RIP and I thank them for their service and ultimate sacrifice. 😢 🇺🇸

This guy has an absolutely gorgeous baritone voice. God bless him for singing this classic American hymn
It was a British composer.
Dan is beautiful in many ways inside and out. His tribute to Annie and Robert showed a depth of beauty in his soul. This rendition moved me with the beauty of his voice but what I liked most was his metal spin on it. Amazing creativity.
American hymn?
John Newton, December 1772, Olney England.
American??? 😂😂😂
I am 79 years old and it is January 31st 2024. I just came across this video it is one of the most beautiful renditions of this song I have ever heard in my life and God bless this young man for singing it! I pray the good Lord is good to him and that he is blessed. I hope to mert him in Heaven🎚
AMEN! I AGREE! ❤
He is so Powerful ❤😢🙏✨💯
Dan's performance of Amazing Grace in a " heavy metal" style is so moving!! Have y'all heard his other songs on U Tube? He will blow your mind!! So very talented 😍🤯❤️
Girl... where you been? Lol
I’m just an old guy who has never considered metal real music, but I have to confess, this young man’s rendition of Amazing Grace is how John Newton meant his lyrics to be sung - with absolute clarity and piercing conviction.
I've heard this sung many ways and heard it in church all my life. This is hands down the way I realize it was meant to be sung - with the sound of triumph.
Oddly, I agree with you and feel this is the feeling and message John Newton meant to convey.
Amen &Amen 🙏🏻
Dan you are the best I've ever heard !!! Everything you sing is the best it could ever be sung!!!
What a beautiful voice! Omg! Gave me chills
Say what?? Metal isn't real music??
Ok. I'll give you that it may be an acquired taste for some.. 😅
This is the best performance I have ever heard in my life.his voice and notes is remarkable.such professional ❤🎉
He does not sing this with his voice, but his soul!!!! This gave me chills!
Right!!! I felt that too!!! What an amazing voice!!!
Beautifully said 😊
Yes

My father passed away Tuesday night, for days I've been dealing with the hurt and loss. On the day I'm getting ready to go to his Wake and his Funeral tomorrow this showed up in my feed because I love your work and admire how amazing your voice is. THIS gave me so much comfort. I cried the whole time and felt my dad telling me "I'm here and your going to be okay." From the bottom of my heart ❤ thank you so much for this comfort I feel in my spirit.

Blessings be upon you and your family for your loss. I lost my father back 2016 and know the pain. But know that he is at peace with the Father above and have faith that one day you will see him again.
My Grandfather used to tell me that the Bible spoke of a song that would be so beautiful that not even the angels in heaven could sing, I have often wondered if Amazing Grace were that song. Certainly the angelic beings would need no salvation so they couldn't rightfully sing this praise to God, only mortal man. This is one of the most beautiful renditions I've ever heard.
Beautifully said 💜✝️
Absolutely the best ❤❤❤❤❤
Oh, wow.
Your comment was absolutely beautiful! And very profound.
Thank you for that.
❤
What a beautiful reunion
0:01 you couldn’t have said it better. I’m agnostic. And for me this song, the way he sung it, gave me that spiritual feeling. Best rendition of a song I’ve ever heard. Second is sounds of silence by disturbed. The man’s vocals are also faultless. Cheers Sean
Discovered this amazing guy last night. I am now happily subscribed to his channel, and can’t wait to hear all of his cover performances on video!! (He’s so incredibly easy on the eyes and beautiful to behold!!♥️💯🙏
I’m 67 years old and I’m standing here crying. I have heard this sung hundreds of times in my lifetime but never have I heard it sung with such grace and authority. 🙌Young man, God has a plan for you and that wonderful voice! You may not realize it now but you will in God’s time. Just remember that it doesn’t matter what we’ve done or where we’ve been in life because Jesus has already died and paid the price. God bless you on your journey. I’ll be praying for you. 🙏
❤
I'm crying too. I sang this song at my son's funeral. What a beautiful rendition.
Amen
Amen 🙏🏻❤️
Amen
60 years old.
In 2014 He saved my life in a car accident miracle .
In 2016 He saved my soul.
I was truly lost but found.
You captured it all as any human could expres.
God bless you Dan.
Thank you thank you thank you for being bold.
I've listened to this 40 times since I first saw it on Saturday.
In tears.
Thank you Jesus for Dans beautiful perfect interpretation.
I want to use your arrangement at my funeral.
I can't stop listening to this.
Amen!
⚘️
This was my dad's favorite gospel song. He passed away 24 years ago and I haven't been able to listen to this song since. But I listened to you singing and I felt so close to my daddy and to Jesus Christ. You are absolutely amazing and God bless you.😊🙏❤️❤️
The same thing for me. God Bless You and thank you for the Blessing.
Happy memories with a smile and no tears xx God bless xx
❤
It's ok to listen to it again ,Jesus will❤ comfort you .god bless you brother
Where have you been all my life? Fabulous.
Best version ever!! This is how angels sing to the Lord! Dan is unique, his voice and passion are out of this world!! 💛💛💛
You've given me a priceless gift. I've lost 2 sons. One 24 and the other 31. I live alone and almost 69. and it's hard to process grief when you don't have anyone around to help Thank you so much! for what you do. Beautiful! I've socially isolated myself. I've been diagnosed with early onset of dementia. I kinda laughed at myself when I thought about it.... having dementia and losing my memories, I won't have to feel like my guts are being ripped out. My heart hurts.
Love your beautiful voice!
Sending you so much love and healing hugs ❤️🤗 so very sorry for your losses Hun 💕 xx
Have you ever heard of "Trey Smith"? He was great friends with "Kim Clement"! His mother was told she had 3 months to live cancer, it had spread through her body but sje refused tp to accept this. So she put up quotes from Bible and placed them around her home. She also read scriptures from the Bible, she'd say. "GOD MADE ME PERFECT, I AM HEALED, I AM PERFECT JUST AS GOD MADE ME"!!! When she went back to the hospital she found all traces of the cancer were gone. You see when you hold on to pain, suffering the loss of your dear children or anything else, it makes your body sick also.. One must forgive and love oneself and let go of the pain the suffering your going through. Death is not the end it is only the beginning because the soul lives forever.. No one truly dies, they just transform into energy... These things are gifts for the soul, the good the bad and darn right horrific.. But these things are done through you not to to.. God is in you as you are in him, this body is but a vessel to learn what it is like to be human... If one has never suffered known pain how can one have compassion, mercy, sympathy etc for anyone else? Sad but we humans don't seek God except in times of trouble for the most part.. it is only when we suffer do we seek him... I'm so sorry for the great loss you've suffered, there are no words that can express my deep sorrow for it.. But God loves you sooooo much he is waiting... One must ask to receive, ask him to help you through this and he will do so.. When one holds on to pain it comes out in sickness. Father please I beg you to help this beautiful soul to be whole again to be healthy again... I AM . ❤️
❤
I’m so sorry for your loss. May God Bless you ❤🙏🏻
Godbless you dear sister
My grandson, 28 when he passed in a car crash, was a big fan of yours. He would have loved this.
My heart is with you. I'm so sorry.
Sorry for your loss
My sincere condolences.
Heaven gained another angel.
Sorry for your loss
My deepest sympathy and sincere condolences. What a tragedy.
Dan, my 47 yr old Firefighter son died in August of colon cancer, now considered a Firefighter hazard. He had a full Firefighter's service. Amazing Grace was played by bagpipes at the end of the service. He would have been proud to have you sing your beautiful rendition of this powerful song, in his service.
Sorry for your loss
Greatest respect to your son!! With love and gratitude for his service to so many!!!!
It's brave people like your son who keep this crazy world going. I thank God for him and thanks to you for raising him right. That may be the only comfort you can find right now
I hope it will sustain you
Saw your post, so sorry for your loss and thankfully for your son's service
@@KristiStelzerthank you for your kind words. Yes, Aaron was one of the good ones in every way. I still tear up at times like this.
2025 woman from Finland loves Dan. His voice is amazing.
The best of the best💪
I'm not religious but this gave me goosebumps, I had tears in my eyes and I gave you a standing ovation! 👏
Same ! His God given talent is mind blowing.
Those Goose bumps are the effects of the Holy Spirit.... He was near, He wants you.
Choose Christ Jesus
Jesus wasn’t religious either, Gods pure love and emotion touched you! 💕
Following Jesus ain’t about religion it’s about relationship with God through Christ amen❤
Dan I'm going through a very hard time mentally in my life right now. I have a suicidal past and I've spiraled down to that darkness again. I'm fighting a daily battle to not do self harm. I can't tell you how many times I've played this in the past week since I saw you on UA-cam. Right now, your incredible gift of moving hearts and minds is the only thing keeping me holding on. 🙏
Listen to anchor by skillet and you can always reach out to talk if rather stay up and chat and then hear you took your own life
I believe satan cannot harm us when we are lifting our savior up in a hym, i have also spiraled that direction, and experienced relief by lifting up our lord with praise in song
I have been there so many times myself. I was in THAT spot that you know well when The Chosen came on my feed and I ended up binge watching and then throwing myself to the ground to give it up to God. Three years no panic attacks, insomnia, or depression. I pray this happens for you too. It's a horrible place to be that I do not go to anymore. Bless you, sweetie.
Please stay safe. My daughters best friend killed himself this week and if he could see the devastation he's left behind he would never have done it. You are loved.
Buy a Ducati Natalie, everywhere you go, people will just like you and want to talk to you. Life will be better.
I’m sure you won’t ever read this, I see all the comments so I’m sure it’s impossible… but I need to put this in words…
On 8-22-2022 I lost my son, whoI affectionately called Danny, his friends Dan, but always my Danny Boy. Since he left us I have not listened to a second of music, you see music is something we both loved, he played the guitar as a child, and as an adult he continued to play and loved mixing music. My point…one day last week you showed up at the top of my feed here on UA-cam…I don’t listen to music, as I said before, I only listen to spiritually videos trying to find a way to connect to Danny…I believe someway some how he put you at the top of my feed…you resemble him in slight ways and of course your name…now I listen to music again, slowly, and only yours…you have a beautiful voice and my heart fills with Danny when I hear you sing…thank you for what you do
I read and heard you. May Danny rest in peace within the warm embrace of God. I will keep you and your son in my prayers Kim. May you find peace...
⚘️
I also read and hear you. God's peace be with you
God bless
God bless you and keep you until you're with your Danny again
Dear Dan, by recording this song, you have honored both God and your father. Your talents, ie. voice and arranging, are skillfully used to move people's hearts. God works in mysterious and wonderful ways and this recording has reached many, many people who normally wouldn't have listened to this song. Thank you for being you. You are a gift.❤
I needed to hear this today. My wife and I have been completely alone for a few months now and really struggling with loneliness and trying to trust the Lord through this desert. The world is getting really hard to navigate. God have mercy on us.
Volunteering keeps me from being lonely
❤
One of the most AWESOME renditions of “Amazing Grace” I’ve EVER heard! Going to share it with everyone I know!
There are good people out there...reach out 🙏
This hurts my heart to hear this, you are never alone in this world. Find your tribe. We need people in our life and anyone can become our family members. Church, city, neighbors. I understand your frustration I wish I knew you ❤
Beautiful! I recently lost my eldest daughter. Last year her sister passed, and 10 years ago…her twin lost her life. There are days I don’t know how I make it through another day…having lost all my girls.
This song, this performance?
God knew exactly what I needed to hear…
Thank you Papa….
God bless you 🙏 ❤️
God bless you and guide you through each day .Psalm 91:1
Oh, I’m so very sorry for your losses. There are no words that can make it better, but I hope you can feel the care from everyone who commented or liked.
😢❤
❤
Dan I’m another 70 year old Christian. I can’t stop playing it. My spirit leaped for joy! Praise the Lord! I have always loved Amazing Grace but you sung it the way I feel. Praise God.
I absolutely agree!! That’s what I felt!! 🥰🙏🇺🇸
I'm also 70 and this sounds amazing.
What a great way to start my morning devotionals!
I'm 59 years old. A husband, father and grandfather.
I am a Christian. You brought beauty and faith into my life. Thank you.
Don't tread on me. Let your faith be your shield.
Amen
Could not have said it better. 74 years passed here.
A wow. I'm 72 yrs old. Anytime I see amazing grace being sung I have to listen and I cry. You are truly gifted, please continue . Gave me goosebumps.
64 yr old here, rocker and Christian!! I am getting goosebumps 😮
Ok but why do we need to know your age
Me tooooo...CHILLS!! 😍😍😍 the violin..the drums and the harmonica and his soft and them deep feeling voice...WOW! 😃
@@emeraldelle6cuz it's something to be thankful for with each aging year..when you are older..you will understand. 💗🙏😉
I am 70, and my mom is 93. This song is so beautiful, mom wants it her at her service when time comes. Me too, until than we listen 100 x a day. Always loved this song, but you made it even more special
That is so awesome!!!!!!
This is Grandma from Texas. I’m speechless. I have been a Christian since I was 16 years old. I am nearly 70 now. I have heard this song more times than I can count. I have heard it sung by the best through the years. I am thinking that you are the one who got it right, really right. I imagine that all the Angels in Heaven stop,,, and hush when you lift your voice and praise God with this precious old hymn. I found your rendition a couple of weeks ago for the first time. I purchased it and listen to it repeatedly. I prefer watching you perform it on UA-cam because the emotion you bring is so real and so touching that it makes me weep every single time. It is as if you know HIM of Whom you sing. Thank you for this. I pray you never forget where you come from and Who’s you are. Thank you again for blessing the whole world
I just turned 65 in March and Dan just *blows me away* every time i listen to this song (as well as the others i've watched/heard). I also think God blessed him with a stupendous voice...and he's never gonna break any mirrors, either! 😁😻😉 Gorgeous young man!
His version is perfect this coming from a great grandmother who will be 72 next month may God bless him the same way that he has blessed us
I am a 64 year old great-grandma from Texas. You worded it so beautifully.
Absolutely Agree 💯% !!!
Hallelujah
Been saved a long time-70 years old now-I’ve never heard Amazing Grace done so beautifully! I’ve played it-sung it-you’re the best. God bless you!
Agreed. Thank you for sharing your kind words fellow human of humanity
This young man gives me goosebumps with his voice. Not many singers do that. Keep that talent
Dan, I am a 57yr old veteran and haven’t listened to much metal since HS/College in the 80s. I came across this today. I had tears in my eyes before the harmonica solo and down my cheeks as you hit full metal. From skeptical to very moved. Thank you sir.
I’m 73 and have never heard a more beautiful version. It made me cry and cry. Thank you!!❤❤❤
Same
Same for me also.
Underbar den ska spelas på min begravning också 🇸🇪
And mine as well ❤
Amazing grace came down to the Vietnam combat veteran, brought me home. Forgave America myself. PTSD killing me with resentments hatred drug alcohol addiction… Yeshua is beautiful and beyond beautiful…
❤🇺🇲
Thank you for your service. And your sacrifice(s) for which I know were many. I'm so glad you made it home. God Bless you!!
Was für eine tolle Stimme.
God bless you. Thank you for your Service.
Thank you for your service, my pops was in nam in 67 , he passed in 2018 . all gave some , some gave all ❤
BEAUTIFUL - FIRST TIME HEARING THIS SINGER - This is an Incredible Version ❤🙏🏻🎚🌠💫✝️♾❣⚓❣💯
I'm ,60 and not long before I leave this body.ive also heard this a million times but I hope they play this rendition at my funeral .May God keep you under his wings and I mean all of you reading this..
I'm also 60 and I'll be giving my funeral director the instruction to play this at my wake. You can and should do that too.
I gave the 70th like!
⚘️
Sir you could help lead this generation to Jesus with your voice
Jesus is dead before he existed
Jesus existed b4 time began..stick to the facts..
@@MarkDawson-zo4pi What facts.. Jesus is the most popular fictional character.
Good luck at that, this world is so far from God now
@jeremyscott8917 true..and it's getting further away fast. But he is here for those who believe. He said he will never leave us nor forsake us.
I lost my only sibling in 1978. He was 25 and I was 27. A tenor sang this a cappella and I cried - no blubbered. It took me 8 years to even listen to this song without crying. The intensity in the singer’s voice matches how my heart broke. I’m 74 now and my brother would be 72, but he will always be 25.
...Always 25. And waiting to lead you home.
❤
Thanks for sharing! I'm not religious but this man's voice was riveting!
I lost my brother when he was just a month shy of 32 and I was 30 at the time. I’m so daunted at facing life without him. I’m now 31 so maybe I’ve got a ways to go 😢
Ty for sharing your story
I lost my sister when I was seven. She was five. I always love her and I know she knows
I am here and listening. I played this song for my 90 year old friend and he started to cry. He said wow! I
We lost our daughter last year and I still talk to God daily but without as much enthusiasm. When I heard you sing this it brought me to tears because I remembered that I needed to be grateful for everything and shout to the Lord Thank you 🙏 This song was meant to be sung by you just the way you did it.(like a wake up call)
I love to listen to it and pass it on to others that are struggling. It has helped so many already! Bless you Dan for what you unknowingly gave me.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Brazil
I lost my husband last year and I sang this at the cemetery. Lately I have been viewing this song, like saying the Pledge of Allegiance everyday at school. It had started to be something I had to do. Not wanting to do, anymore. It didn't have any feelings anymore. But after hearing him sing this song, I regained the emotions and feelings and true meanings behind this song.
@@ur_favone I’m so sorry for your loss. I understand what you mean about feeling things again after hearing this song. The same is true for me and I listen to it daily as well. God Bless you…..
@@happyhello5988 Thank you. May God bless you, to
Bless you 🙏 x
It's a beautiful version. May it bring you peace x
Imagine this guy being in the congregation at a funeral & he does this, even the person in the coffin would sit up.❤
Great comment, awesome rendition
LOL, most likely. My soul is happy.
If this ain’t played at my funeral I ain’t going
Agree!
😂🤣😂🤣😂thanks..needed that laugh
I've finally heard this song performed with the passion it deserves.
I agree
Amen dude. I've even performed song this in a bagpipe band many times over. I hated every second, but this version makes realize this is a great song
@heikira438 I actually love hearing this song on the bagpipes; maybe it's Scot in me but there is something very soulful about the pipes to me. But the way this man sang this song was raw, unadorned truth.
I agree
His voice is amazing 😎💯
0:00 "This guy has a nice voice"
1:27 Key change - "Oh....wow"
2:07 Harmonica "This is epic"
2:52 It's Metal Time ""
Yeah, amazing voice for amazing grace!1:27 is not a key change tho, he just went one octave higher. 3:35 is the key change
Nailed it
Holy shit! Epic!
Sounds so good. Thanks Dan
I'll go out on a limb and say that in the 251 years since John Newton penned this song, NO ONE has come close to expressing it so powerfully and with such passion, and I doubt anyone will ever surpass your rendition. This is a song proclaiming and celebrating the freedom that comes only through the grace of our Creator and Living God, and brother you nailed it like it should be!
Why, tell me why, can I only give this 1 upvote, instead of the 10,000 it deserves?
I 100% agree!
Amen, Amen, and a big AMEN!
Absolutely agree. It's mesmerizing
Amen. Jesus would be pleased.❤
I get chills every time! I am 59 and my wife 67 has had very bad health issues for the last year, she is bedridden and dependent on me for everything! At work before i start I pray and Kneel to the lord and ask him for One more day with her! I am an automotive mechanic, here in Wasilla Alaska! Thank you!
MAY GOD ALMIGHTY HELP YOU EACH AND EVERY DAY AND GOD BE WITH THEM BOTH AMEN
god bless you,i will pray for you
I am also a automotive mechanic in Longview Texas, as long as you have faith in the lord you and your wife will be just fine, God bless you, and be safe my friend
TALK ABOUT 'GIVING IT HIS ALL" .... Truly, ha, AMAZING🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
