Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16487 First Line: Preserved by Thine almighty power Refrain First Line: Happy day, happy day! Lyrics:
1 Preserved by Thine almighty power,
O Lord, our Maker, Savior, King,
And brought to see this happy hour,
We come Thy praises here to sing.
Refrain:
Happy day, happy day!
Here in Thy courts we’ll gladly stay,
And at Thy footstool humbly pray
That thou wouldst take our sins away.
Happy day, happy day!
When Christ shall wash our sins away!
2 We praise Thee for Thy constant care,
For life preserved, for mercies giv’n;
Oh, may we still these mercies share,
And taste the joys of sins forgiv’n. [Refrain]
3 We praise Thee for the joyful news
Of pardon through a Savior’s blood;
O Lord, incline our hearts to choose
The way to happiness and God. [Refrain]
4 And when on earth our days are done,
Grant, Lord, that we at length may sing,
With teachers, scholars, round Thy throne,
The song of Moses and the Lamb. [Refrain]
