oh happy day that fixed my choice

Oh, 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.




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.




„This 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.




High heaven, that heard 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
