1 O what a wonderful, wonderful day.
Day I will never forget;
After I'd wandered in darkness away,
Jesus my Savior i met.
O what a tender compassionate friend,
He met the need of my heart
Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling
He made all the darkness depart.
Refrain:
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul.
When at the cross my Savior made me whole.
My sins were washed away
And my night was turned to day.
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul.
2 Born of the spirit from life of above
Into God's fam'ly divine,
Justified fully through calvary's love,
O what a standing is mine!
And the transaction so quickly was made
When as a sinner I came,
Took of the offer of grace He did proffer-
He saved me, O praise His dear name!
[Refrain]
3 Now, I've a hope that will surely endure
After the passing of time;
I have a future in heaven for sure,
There in those mansions sublime.
And it's because of that wonderful day
When at the cross I believed
Riches eternal and blessings supernal
From His precious hand I received.
[Refrain]
