O happy day, that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice
And tell its raptures all abroad.
On Thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice
And tell its raptures all abroad.
‘Tis done-the great transaction’s done!
I am my Lord’s and He is mine;
He drew me, and I followed on,
Charmed to confess the voice divine.
Now rest, my long-divided heart,
Fixed on this blissful centre, rest;
Nor ever from Thy Lord depart,
With Him of every good possessed.
[chorus]
Happy day! Happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away.
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day.
