1. O happy day that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Savior and my God !
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away !
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day;
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away !
2. 'Tis done the great transaction's done;
I am my Lord's, and He is mine;
He drew me and I followed on,
Rejoiced to own the call divine.
3. Now rest, my long-divided heart,
Fixed on this blissful center, rest;
Here have I found a nobler part,
Here heav'nly pleasures fill my breast.
4. High heav'n that hears the solemn vow,
That vow renewed shall daily hear
Till in life's latest hour I bow,
And bless, in death, a bond so dear.
