Ginsberg would take this poem and record it professio...
I dreamed, I dwelled in a homeless place
Where I was lost alone
Folk looked right through me into space
And passed with eyes of stone
O homeless hand on many a street
Accept this change from me
A friendly smile or word is sweet
As fearless charity
Woe workingman who hears the cry
And cannot spare a dime
Nor look into a homeless eye
Afraid to give the time
So rich, or poor, no gold to talk
A smile on your face
The homelеss ones where you may walk
Rеceive amazing grace
I dreamed, I dwelled in a homeless place
Where I was lost alone
Folk looked right through me into space
And passed with eyes of stone
Amazing Grace was written by Allen Ginsberg & John Newton.

Allen Ginsberg released Amazing Grace on Tue Oct 08 1996.
