55d. Oh, happy day that fixed my choice

1 Oh, 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.

Refrain:
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,
Charmed to confess the voice divine. [Refrain]

3 Now rest, my long-divided heart;
Fixed on this blissful centre rest;
Nor ever from thy Lord depart:
With him of every good possessed. [Refrain]
