This version of Amazing Grace should have been included at the end of the score album.

Indeed a beautiful psalm accompanying a very powerful climactic scene in the movie...

It could very well be the Harlem Gospel Choir.

It might be listed at the film's end credits.

I can't find any info in IMDb's website but you could post your question there.

You could also ask in YouTube.
