365. O happy day that fixed my choice

1 O happy day that fixed my choice
On thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its rapture 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 O happy bond that seals my vows
To him who merits all my love!
Let cheerful praises fill his house
While to his blessèd throne I move.

3 ‘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.
