Author: Philip Doddridge; Anonymous Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 2008 #574 (2008) Meter: 8.8.8.8 with refrain Refrain First Line: Happy day, happy day Lyrics: 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.
Chorus:
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing ev'ry 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,
Rejoicing in the call divine. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus] Topics: Redemption, Salvation, Atonement Languages: English Tune Title: HAPPY DAY
