 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.

 

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!

 

 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.

 

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!

 

 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.

 

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!
