The hymn Amazing Grace has become a popular song associated with the English-speaking culture. However, the notion of GRACE itself remains mysterious, and even for theologians it is something difficult to understand and describe. This problem may be solved by the use conceptual metaphors, which help people conceptualize and understand abstract reality [Lakoff, Johnson 2003/1980/; Kövecses 2010/2002/]. The Parochial and Plain Sermons [1834-1843] constitutes a set of sermons preached in the years 1828-1845 in St. Mary’s Church in Oxford by John Henry Newman, an outstanding Anglican philosopher, theologian, writer, and academic of the Victorian era, who later converted to Roman Catholicism. The article focuses on the identification and classification of the various conceptual metaphors for GRACE in Newman’s sermons. The metaphors are illustrated with examples of the lexical correlates found in the analyzed material. In his sermons, Newman conceptualizes grace either as different kinds of INANIMATE THINGS: A CONTAINER, AN INSTRUMENT or MEANS, A GARMENT, A TREASURE and A GIFT, as A TRADED COMMODITY, A LIQUID, FOOD AND DRINK, and A BUILDING, as A PLANT, or as A PERSON: A KING, AN INHABITANT of a human being or the Church, as AN OPPONENT or ENEMY, as A GUIDE IN A JOURNEY, and as A PARENT. Also, grace is metaphorically viewed in the studied work as POWER, as A WAY IN A JOURNEY, and as LIGHT.
