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.
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!
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!

’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.

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.

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.
That vow renewed shall daily hear!

I never grew up with my father. Now I do understand what it means to have a father as God has been the utmost Father to me. He made provision for my sins to be erased long before I was born so that I could be reconciled to Him. Today the song came to my mind and later on in the day a total stranger came up to me and sang it. My heart is no longer divided but at peace, total rest, knowing that I am His and He is mine.

Shows me that I am just a sinner saved by his Grace. I am so Happy, Rejoicing evermore. Great to realize I belong to the Great King!

This hymn reminds me of Jesus victory over death. He paid the price just for me. Thank You Lord Jesus.

This song reaffirms my faith in Christ Jesus knowing that my sins has been paid for in full by His blood. I am reassured of God's grace to mankind.

I like this hymn because it reminds me of my baptismal God-father and how he made me know God at the early stages of my life when I was supposed to have been destroyed by the corruptions of this world.

I realised how much Jesus loves me there is no measure for it. Thank You Jesus for Your love and everything to me.

I like this song. It reminds me of older hymns my Southern Baptist church, Grandview Baptist, sang sometimes. It reminds me of saints gone before and mentors like my friend, Herb, who sent this in his daily devotional/prayer to the "beloved". Praise Jesus...it IS all about Him! Thank You Lord.
