I love this hymn so much because it always remind me of the price that Jesus paid for me with His blood and where my faith is resting. Jesus is alive.

Thank you. As we prayed tonight my husband mentioned this hymn had come to mind as he was in bed last night but he couldn't quite remember the words. He had seen some others written that differed. So now we have found the first ones he learned.

God bless this ministry!

It is indeed. It is enough that Jesus Christ died and shed His blood for all mankind that believes in Him.

I surely need no other argument. Jesus is Lord. God is Lord.

Jesus fills my heart with joy when I sing this song to Him!

Wow God this song is really great, I am dedicating this song to my sister in Christ, I pray that she shall dwell with the Lord forever more.

Indeed my faith has found a resting place. Jesus is my great physician. With Him I shall never be moved again in Jesus Name. It is enough for me that Jesus is on the throne. Praise the Lord!!! Thanks for uploading this song.

Thank You Jesus!

Romans 8:34 : Who is he that condemneth ? It is Christ that died ..! Haleluyah. It is enough. Oh yes! His death is enough! My faith has found a resting place.

This song has been resonating in my mind for over two weeks and each time I recall the words, it does confirm that I really do not need ANY ARGUMENT.. IT IS ENOUGH THAT JESUS DIED, AND THAT HE DIED FOR ME. Glory to His name.

This hymn is written by Eliza Edmunds Hewitt. Lidie H. Edmunds was a pseudonym she used.

She was born and spent her life in Philadelphia, PA. Her father was a sea captain. They were wealthy before the Civil War, but lost 80% of their assets by 1870.

She attended Philadelphia public schools and graduated valedictorian of her class at the Girl's Normal School of Philadelphia and became a school teacher. She became bedridden because of a spinal condition that may have come from a boy striking her in the back with a heavy slate while being disciplined. She was put in a heavy cast for 6 months. She wrote “There Is Sunshine in My Soul Today” after getting her body cast off and being allowed a walk in the nearby park, in thankfulness at the joy of being able to get about again!

As an invalid for an extended period, she developed a love of God and the Scriptures and the hope of sharing in written form. She wrote Sunday School literature and children's poems. She wrote a poem for her pastor during this time entitled "Winning Souls for Jesus" and it was placed in the cornerstone of Tabernacle Presbyterian Church of West Philadelphia. Professor J. R. Sweeny saw some of her work and wrote to her asking for some contributions he could put to music (i.e. "More About Jesus Would I Know" & "There is Sunshine in My Soul Today"). This led to her becoming known by Professor W. J. Kirkpatrick, and she wrote most of her poems for him to use.

Her mother, Zeruiah Edmunds Hewitt, died during this time in 1880 when Eliza was 28.

Her condition eventually improved and she was able to return to an active life in Christian ministry. She was very committed to reaching children through Sunday Schools and attended the Methodist Camp meetings in Ocean Grove, New Jersey. She worked with the Methodist District Superintendant’s wife, Emily Wilson, on the hymn poem, “When We All Get to Heaven.” Her goal was to reach children through her poems with the message of the gospel. She was the superintendent of the Sunday school at the Northern Home for Friendless Children and an active member of the Mt. Olivet Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia.

She was a close friend of Fanny Crosby and the two often met to have fellowship and talk about hymns. She was a cousin of the hymn writer, Edgar Page Stites, and worked with other well known hymn writers like Charles Gabriel, Homer Rodeheaver, and E.S. Lorenz. - extracted from bereanbibleheritage

In most versions of this hymn, stanza 3 line 2 says "living" instead of "written". I don't which is the original.
