Hymn Text
Verse 1
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.
Verse 2
Born of the Spirit with life from above
Into God's fam’ly divine,
Justified fully through Calvary's love,
O what a standing is mine
And the transaction so quickly was made
took of the offer of grace he did profer
He saved me, O praise his dear name!
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.
Verse 3
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.
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.
