1 I'm happy today, O yes, I'm happy today,
In Jesus Christ, I'm happy today,
Because He's taken all my sins away,
And that's why I'm happy today!

2 I'm singing today, O yes, I'm singing today,
In Jesus Christ, I'm singing today,
Because He's taken all my sins away,
And that's why I'm singing today!

3 I'm praying today, O yes, I'm praying today,
In Jesus Christ, I'm praying today,
Because He's taken all my sins away,
And that's why I'm praying today!

4 I'm happy today, O yes, I'm singing today,
In Jesus Christ, I'm praying today,
Because He's taken all my sins away,
And that's why I'm sharing today!
