86 - Oh, happy day

1.

Oh, happy day that fixed my choice on Thee, my Savior and my God!

My grateful heart does now rejoice, to tell its raptures all abroad.

Refrain: 

Oh, happy day, Oh, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away!

He taught me how to watch and pray, and live rejoicing every day;

Oh, happy day, oh, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away!

2.

'Tis done, the greatest work is done: Christ ransomed me; I am His own.

New life in Him has now begun; my life I’ll live for Him alone.

3.

Oh, happy bond, that seals my vows to Him who merits all my love!

Let joyful praises fill His house; I’m on the path to heav’n above!
