77. He Included Me

1 I am so happy in Christ today,
That I go singing along my way;
Yes, I'm so happy to know and say,
"Jesus included me too."

Chorus:
Jesus included me,
Yes, He included me,
When the Lord said, "Whosoever,"
He included me;
Jesus included me,
Yes, He included me,
When the Lord said, "Whoseoever,"
He included me.

2 Gladly I read, "Whoseoever may
Come to the fountain of life today;"
But when I read it I always say,
"Jesus included me, too." [Chorus]

3 Ever God's Spirit is saying, "Come!"
Hear the Bride saying, "No longer roam;"
But I am sure while they're calling home,
Jesus included me, too. [Chorus]

4 "Freely come drink," words the soul to thrill!
O with what joy they my heart do fill!
For when He said, "Whosoever will,"
Jesus included me, too. [Chorus]
