Author: A. S. R. Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #423 (1976) First Line: I was lost in sin when Jesus found me Lyrics: 1 I was lost in sin when Jesus found me,But He rescued me, all glory to His name!And the cords of worldly pleasure bound me,Till He saved me from sin and shame.Refrain:'Twas a glad day when Jesus found me,When His strong arms were thrown around me;When my sins He buried in the deepest sea,And my soul He filled with joy and victory,'Twas a glad day, O hallelujah!'Twas a glad day He claimed His own;I will shout a glad “Hosanna!” in gloryWhen I see Him upon His throne.2 O the bells of heaven now are ringing,For I hear their tones within my ransomed soul;And my heart is filled with joyful singingSince the Savior hath made me whole. [Refrain]3 O the joy when we shall meet in glory,In the mansions of my Father's home above;And thru' endless ages tell the storyOf the Savior's redeeming love.
