O WHAT A SAVIOUR THAT HE DIED FOR ME

O what a wonderful, wonderful day,

Day I will never forget;

After I‟d wandered in darkness away,

Jesus my Saviour I met.

O what a tender, compassionate friend

He met the need of my heart;

Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling,

He made all the darkness depart!

Heaven came down and glory filled my soul,

When at the cross the Saviour made me whole;

My sins were washed away

And my night was turned to day;

Heaven came down and glory filled

My soul!

Born of the Spirit with life from above

Into God‟s family divine,

Justified fully through Calvary‟s love,

O what a standing is mine!

And the transaction so quickly was made

When as a sinner I came,

Took of the offer of grace He did proffer;

He saved me, O praise His dear name!

Now I‟ve a hope that will surely endure

After the passing of time;

I have a future in Heaven for sure,

There in those mansions sublime.

And it‟s because of that wonderful day,

When at the cross I believed;

Riches eternal and blessings supernal

From His precious hand I received. ......
