Well as everyone has said the vocal sounds great.
Timing is just as important in a song as anything else. As Kevin pointed out, you have put a couple of extra beats in at a few points in the song. They are between the lines of vocals - right at the beginning - Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, (two extra beats) that saved a wretch.... I would guess that you are waiting to complete some portion of your finger picking before proceeding.
The finger picking itself is coming along nicely. Try working on rolling back down near the end of each phrase. In other words, you are picking on 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & but the red &s are not being heard - try picking them with your first finger on the string below the highest one you went to. You should roll up and then back down each time (at least that is a good way to do it)....
Hard to explain this stuff from 500 miles away!
