O Happy Day

1
O 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.
O happy day, O happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing ev'ry day;
O happy day, O happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away
2
'Tis done the great transaction's done!
I am the Lord's and He is mine;
He drew me, and I followed on;
Charmed to confess the voice divine.
O happy day, O happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing ev'ry day;
O happy day, O 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.
O happy day, O happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing ev'ry day;
O happy day, O happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away
