Behind the song you love is a story you will never forget.

Amazing Grace-Movie based on the life of British anti-slavery pioneer William Wilberforce and follows his 18th century political career, which placed him at odds with some of the most powerful men of the time, including the king.

In this clip, William Wilberforce is talking with John Newton.

John Newton was a slave trader. He trafficked thousands of men, women and children from Africa to the auction blocks. In 1748, a violent storm threatened to sink his ship and he fell to his knees and prayed to God for mercy. It was that night that John Newton sensed that there is a God who hears and answers prayers...even to the worst of men. Over time Newton repented...as a preacher and writer of hymns. In 1772 he wrote a hymn called "Faith's Review and Expectation." A song that you know as AMAZING GRACE
