MY RECORDER DOESN'T WORK The sound gets weaker and weaker ... !?
Blow into the mouthpiece while a fingertip covers the sound hole which is nearest your mouth.
I'm using the right fingerings but the music isn't right ...
Your fingerings are not quite right, or you are blowing too hard. By the way, are you sure your recorder is not one with the German fingering system ??!
WHAT'S UNDER THE TITLE ?!
That's the key the song is notated in.

Amazing Grace Lyrics
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.
